Pet care experience
Your Dogs Comfort is Priority
I provide a safe and caring environment for your pets. I have been pet sitting for over 15 years and I have worked in the pet industry for over 27 years. I have a pet friendly home and strive to make your pets stay a comfy as possible. Dogs sleep in beds in my house and play in the yard and bring in muddy paw prints. I typically board no more than 3 at a time unless they are from the same home. Your pet will feel more comfortable with less pets in the home. I also find it is much easier to stick to the pets parent's rules if there are less dogs to accommodate (like feeding instructions, treat restrictions, crate training and so on) My dog, Dave, passed away a few years ago. While I'm not ready to commit to another dog just yet (Dave was one in a million) I truly enjoy spending time with my "guests". I welcome and am experienced with senior dogs and puppies and everything in between. I also have plenty of experience with dogs that are skiddish, reserved toward strangers, food aggression, separation anxiety etc. My goal is to make your dog feel at home my our home!!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs, Bo and Rosie, received! From the moment we met our dog sitter, we knew they truly loved animals. Bo and Rosie were treated like family, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made being away so much easier. When we returned, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious they received plenty of love, attention, exercise, and affection. We highly recommend this dog sitter to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy. We will absolutely be booking again.
Lorrie did a great job taking care of my 5 1/2 month old Lab, Ollie. She introduced the other dogs to him individually to make sure they all got along. He had the best time playing with all of them! She sent lots of videos of his fun experiences. Ollie can’t wait to go again soon!
Lorrie was very caring and attentive to my 2 doggies. She even cooked them meat to get them to eat their meals. Perfect yard for playing and only 2 stairs for my oldie. Best setup. Got video and pics almost every day. Will book again. Thanks Lorrie!
We were referred to Lorrie through a friend and worked with her for a test run for our 8 month golden puppy. Recently, we’ve been dealing with a bit of separation anxiety with our Frankie but Lorrie made him feel right at home and he settled in nicely. This was such a relief for my wife and I as we have some trips planned soon. It’s so comforting knowing Frankie has a place to go that will treat him like family! Couldn’t recommend Lorrie enough!
Lorrie was fantastic! She took great care of my dog during his stay, kept me updated with photos, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with her again!
Lorrie was so great! She was accommodating starting from setting up a meet-&-greet with our Tucker all the way through to picking him up from his stay with her. We spoke on the phone so Lorrie could get info on Tucker and she explained her process with her clients. Lorrie sent updates with photos and a video which really helped us feel at ease. We highly recommend Lorrie and would happily book with her again in the future!

Schedule
I work from home as a full time pet sitter. I rarely leave the home for more than 2 hours and if I do I recruit help to care for the dogs. The dogs are treated like family
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced yard. I Also walk pets that are used to being walked. I have years of experience as a vet tech and trainer. I like to keep the routine similar to home
A typical day
I live very close to the Henry Hudson trail. Sprinklers and muddy paws are typical. Squirrel chasing is another crowd pleaser. Tennis balls are literally everywhere lol. And of course, my favorite pass time, cuddling
