Pet care experience

Fur The Love of Pets 🐶 🐱 🐹

I am a reliable professional who loves taking care of animals. I have cared for pets (Dogs, Cats, Budgies & Guinea Pigs) since the age of 10. As a teenager I worked for a Veterinarian caring for dogs and cats in his practice and boarding kennel business. As an adult I have had dogs and cats of my own since the age of 24. Currently I am living happily with 2 cats and 1 dog 😊 and could not imagine a home without furry critters in it. I am experienced and comfortable working with pets of all ages from puppies & kittens, through young and mature to senior cats and dogs. I have cared for and am comfortable working with all breed of dogs from the tiniest tea cups all they way up to the giant breeds; I love them all 😊 “Cats or Dogs” is not really a question for me, as I own and care for both; appreciating what each has to offer. I am equally comfortable and committed to caring for both cats and dogs and am also willing to consider other furry or feathery family members as well 😊

Lorraine did a fantastic job looking after our two cats. We loved the pictures she sent - our fur babies were spoiled rotten... We'll definitely be using her services in the future....

I have never left my 16 year old cat Stanley with anyone other than family. Being a rather solitary girl, I wanted to be sure that whoever came in to look after her, could give her the space she needs and be understanding of her temperment. Lorraine provided that for me and it seemed that she and Stan got along just fine! I would definitely have Lorraine come back when I go away in the future.

Pets

A typical day

I enjoy spending time outside in nature walking or playing ball in a backyard with my furry dog friends . Or even just cuddling or playing inside with a dog or cat and their favourite toys. I love all pets and enjoy learning about each of their unique personalities. I am a kind and patient caregiver who will work hard at building trust and a positive experience for both you and your pet(s).
