Professional, High-Quality Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hello, fellow dog lover! I’m Lorraine, and as you can see, I'm always up for a snuggle and/or an adventure. My schedule is very flexible and I have open availability most weeks to host your pup. My doggy vacation home takes reservations for both long and short stays while you're away from your beloved pet(s). If your pup loves being around other dogs, enjoys playtime daily, and wants an abundance of love, you've found the perfect pet sitter. I have over 5 years of experience as an independent pet care provider. My guarantee is to treat your dog as a member of my tight-knit family. Lots of love, treats, and of course exercise will always be provided. My dog Bijou is very welcoming and loves sharing her home with new friends. My well-kept, dog-friendly home, allows for dogs to roam free, including my large fenced in backyard. Dog safety is one of my top priorities as a pet sitter. No dog will go unsupervised in my home and I always take the proper precautions when hosting multiple dogs. When I'm not pet sitting I love to cuddle up with a dog and a good book! I’m so excited to meet you and your dog! Send me a request so we can talk details of the stay and set up an in-person meet and greet. Your dog isn’t my only client, you are too. Let me know what I can do to make you feel comfortable.

Lorraine was a very kind, caring, and considerate sitter. After a first night of uneasiness, Tiberius settled in and had a wonderful experience. He enjoyed her home and her companionship. I would use her again in a hot minute.

Excellent sitter! We could tell our dog was having a fantastic time with Lorraine. She sent lots of pics and gave him plenty of love and attention as well as ample park time. We were so lucky to book her over the holidays! Bogey looks forward to his next stay!

Lorraine provided very clear expectations of what would be expected when my dog stayed at her place. The checklist was helpful and gave me a sense of the care she had for the dog and the dog's environment. I appreciated the responsiveness especially since I worry about my pet and her well-being when I am not available. On a daily basis, Lorraine provides a picture and update on my dog's livelihood. I have already scheduled my pet for another stay with Lorraine's friendly companion and even dog walking. I also appreciate that she only allows two dogs at her home so that she can manage the dogs and her home in a safe and caring environment.

Lorraine is the epitome of professionalism. She provides detailed communication about our dog and his behavior, is punctual, reliable, and most importantly loves our dog. She is proactive at looks out for all things around our home, not just our dog, when she comes and goes. We like to think she is party of our family since she is so kind to our dog and our kids!! When it comes to dog sitting, our dog always has a great time at her house, with lots of tiring walks, brush outs, love and affection, and she even sends us pics to show us what he is up to. She loves our dog, and we love her for it!

Information Lorraine N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know a little bit about your pups temperament. I prefer to host dogs that are spayed/neutered , house trained, and up to date on all their shots. For the safety of all the dogs in my care, I don't host dogs that exhibit any aggressive behaviors. I require a meet and greet before booking to ensure I'm the best match for you and your dog.

A typical day

During their stay, your dog will join my pack on their daily adventures at different East Bay parks. On the weekends, we can go on hikes at Joaquin Miller Park, with your permission of course.
