When we meet before the first walk I will ask you to show me your routines and what the furry four legged children like to do for their walks and feeding times. We will go over health and behaviors and then integrate that into our dog walking plan.

Information Lori S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know: > All about your routines and any special needs > Any triggers for aggressive behaviors or fears the pet has >Favorite potty spots! >Doctor information and if you would or would not like me to bring your pet in an emergency to your vet

A typical day

Under my care, your dogs will not only receive the exercise most suitable for their age and ability, but also have their emotional/mental needs met. I will take the time to give them love, and reinforce any training you're working on with them. This will help reduce anxiety and they will stay healthy.

Pet care experience

🐾 Experienced and Loving Pet Sitter Ready to Care for Your Furry Friends! 🐾 Hey there! If you're looking for a professional pet sitter to take care of your pets like they're family, you're in the right place. With a lifetime of experience under my belt, I've got the skills and the heart to make sure your pets are happy and healthy while you're away. I'm proud to say that my clients trust me and my wife Dana to look after their pets time and time again as shown by my repeat clients and positive reviews here. Whether it's walking your dog, feeding your cat, or just giving some cuddles, We are here to make sure your pets feel loved and cared for. We take this caretaker job seriously, but we also know how to have fun with animals. From the most energetic pup to the shyest kitty, I'll treat each furry friend like they're my own. If your pet needs some extra attention or has special needs, I've got it covered. So, if you need a reliable and loving pet sitter who'll go above and beyond for your pets, let's chat! Reach out today, and let's make sure your furry pals are in good hands while you're away. 🐾 Here are some benefits to hiring us, where you get two sitters rather than one: 1. Double the Attention: With two pet sitters, your pets get double the love and attention! They won't ever feel lonely or neglected because there's always someone around to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. 2. Backup Plan: Life happens, right? Having two pet sitters means you've got a built-in backup plan. If one pet sitter has an emergency or can't make it for some reason, you've still got another reliable person who can step in and take care of your pets without missing a beat. 3. Different Perspectives: Every pet sitter has their own unique style and approach. With two sitters, your pets get to experience different personalities and activities, which can keep things exciting and enriching for them. 4. Specialized Care: Two pet sitters can divide tasks based on their strengths and preferences. One might be a pro at dog walks while the other excels at giving medications or grooming. This means your pets get specialized care tailored to their individual needs. 5. More Flexibility: With two pet sitters, scheduling becomes a breeze! You have more flexibility to plan around your own schedule or any last-minute changes without worrying about your pets' care being compromised.

Lori did an outstanding job of taking care of our 3 cats while we were out of town. She even managed to win over our fraidy cat who is highly suspicious of strangers. I would recommend her without reservation for any pet care gig.
