Availability
I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool my 2 children. My high school daughter will help me on the weekends and nights, so the pets can have twice the attention. My husband works from home so I am flexible if needed during the day for drop ins. I am a former elementary teacher and school librarian and spent 15 years caring for students of all ages, so I can provide the extra care and patience for your pets.

Safety, trust & environment
Unfortunately at this time we aren't able to provide care at our home. But we would love to come to your home where your dog or cat is comfortable and give them extra attention and the daily care that they need.
Information Lorie S. would like to know about your pet
Do they have any medical needs? What kind of feeding scheduling would you like me to follow? If we are doing a drop in visit for dogs, would you like them to have supervised time in your yard?
A typical day
If we do drop in visits for dogs, we can give them supervised play in your backyard or take them on walks. We are experts at playing tug of war, it is one of the things that calm our extremely active dogs down when they are wound up.

Pet care experience
We adopted 3 baby kittens in Feb 2020. They have grown so much in 5 years! They are curious, have a lot of energy and get into everything :) We also took in a male stray cat who was malnourished and we nursed him back to health and he has heen part of our family for two years. Before that, we adopted 2 adult sibling cats that we had for over 10 years. We have 2 adopted rescue large breed dogs. We adopted Luna in October 2024 and she is already 90 pounds and only a year old! She is highly prey driven so we have experience with dogs that are harder to walk. We adopted Bonnie from a rescue in May 2025. She is a year and half old and is from a rescue in Mexico. She was quiet and shy at first, but after a couple of weeks her playful side began to show and she spends hours wrestling with her sister Luna and loves to play tug of war. We have experience with very active dogs.
Reviews
Lorie and her daughter are absolutely wonderful cat sitters! They are so sweet and take care of my kitties as if they are their own! I highly recommend them to care for your pets too!
Lorie did a fantastic job! She took great care of both my indoor and outdoor cats, kept me updated, and I truly appreciated her time—especially over Easter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again for our next trip.
So glad we had Lorie take care of our Alli! Our dog is our child so when we’re away, we love seeing pictures and receiving updates on their visit. Lorie was super thoughtful in providing plenty of pictures and updates. We would definitely ask Lorie to watch Alli again!
Lorie is great with our senior dogs and always willing to support a last minute scheduled walk, the best!
