Loving Vet Tech 40 Years Experience

Pet care experience

I've been working with animals and a pet owner myself for over 40 years, starting as a teen at my grandmother's Collie Kennel, Debhill. She and her team of veterinarians trained me and I worked as an assistant Vet Tech in her clinics for years, learning how to care for even the most difficult or frightened animals. Now I am semi-retired at 55, volunteering with several animal rescue organizations, travelling and looking forward to caring for pets while I'm away from home. I've volunteered with over a dozen animal care organizations including Tony La Russa's Animal Rescue and most recently Boulder County Humane Society where I fostered kittens. I've either had, or cared for, animals of all kinds, cats, dogs, snakes, lizards, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, I love them all! I am semi-retired and work at home on our small farm in South Boulder full time so I am available 24/7 when pet sitting. I would never want to care for an animal and not be present for the bulk of the time I'm there.

Lorna is a wonderful pet sitter! She has helped care for our dogs on numerous occasions and our pets love her. Our dogs are always happy and relaxed when we return. She is very trustworthy, caring, and responsible. We highly recommend her!
