About Lorraine B.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routine exactly as you set it. I’m a long-time homeowner myself, and I treat your space with the same respect and care I expected in mine. Clear routines & structure • I follow your schedule for feeding, walks, medications, movement support, and bedtime routines. • I confirm details like coat/boot use, leash type, walk length, and whether your dog needs structured play or a run. • I maintain established routines between multiple pets, including safe feeding order and supervised interactions. Home safety & respect • No guests ever enter your home. • I am a quiet, low-impact presence. • Doors are locked, areas of the house you specify are avoided, and I follow your nighttime routine for pee breaks and house security. • I tidy as I go and leave your home as I found it. Pet-specific care details • I confirm treat limits, what behaviour they’re used for, and any food or item that must remain inaccessible. • I ask about any recent food changes, sensitivities, or mobility concerns. • I monitor subtle changes—energy, appetite, bathroom habits—and communicate anything noteworthy. Cleanliness & preparedness • I ask where cleaning supplies, vacuums, or mops are kept in case of spills or accidents. • Litter, food areas, water bowls, and pet spaces are kept clean and consistent. Communication & emergencies • I provide daily updates and will clarify any instruction necessary to ensure accuracy. • I follow your emergency plan, including your preferred veterinarian. • Cameras, alarms, or home-specific systems are respected exactly as directed. My goal is simple: your pets feel secure, your home is respected, and your instructions are followed with precision.
Information Lorraine B. would like to know about your pet
I am comfortable caring for pets with a range of additional needs and will always follow your instructions closely to maintain consistency. This includes administering oral medications, supporting senior pets with slower mobility, and working with animals that may be anxious, shy, or need a calm approach. I take the time to observe behaviour and adjust my interaction style as needed, ensuring your pet feels safe and supported. I will also keep you updated on anything out of the ordinary. For more complex medical needs or behavioural concerns, I prefer to discuss details in advance to make sure it’s the right fit for both your pet and myself.
A typical day
tailor activity and interaction to each pet’s energy level and personality. For active dogs, this includes regular walks, playtime, and engagement to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. For more relaxed or senior pets, I focus on calm companionship, shorter walks, and a quieter pace. I provide one-on-one attention, whether that’s play, affection, or simply being present, depending on what your pet is comfortable with. I also incorporate light enrichment such as toys or basic reinforcement of routines to keep them engaged. My approach is to meet your pet where they are, ensuring they feel comfortable, balanced, and well cared for throughout my time with them. I’m comfortable working with high-energy dogs that are well-managed and responsive. For safety, I do not take on dogs with a history of aggression or unpredictable behaviour.

Pet care experience
I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I currently look after a senior dog who requires scheduled pee breaks, support with mobility, and two easy going snuggly cats. My experience includes short-term and long stay with both mixed pet homes and single pet homes. Cat care included feeding schedules, litter cleaning, and plenty of lap time. I am comfortable with senior pets, pets with medical needs, and busy multi-pet households. I prioritize routine and attention to their wants.
