Experienced CVT & Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I'm a Certified Veterinary Technician with 14 years in the field serving Pinellas county. I really love all kinds of pets and enjoy getting to know and care for new ones. You and your pet will no doubt benefit from my background. Pets are so special to us and I really treat them all as I treat my own furry family. I like to take walks, maybe even more than my own dog and enjoy spending time getting to know new pets. In my home and yard I follow safety protocols laid out by my veterinary health profession. I clean with Odoban brand disinfectant and will under only rare circumstances board pets from different households simultaneously. My own pets are up to date on vaccines, heart worm prevention, flea control and parasite prevention. The litter boxes in my home are fashioned to be doggie proof. If you have more than one pet you would like cared for at the same time please discuss alternate pricing schedules with me.

We love, Lorrie, and we love that Boone loves her just as much! She always updates us with photos while we're away and gives the best overviews of her time spent with him. We'll continue to use her and recommend her to friends :)

What a relief it was to find Lorrie!! I’ve got a specially-abled pup with a quirky (and not so trusting) personality, so finding someone that could take care of his extra needs & attitude was a blessing. She was super responsive in getting in contact with me, as well as answering all my questions and follow-ups. Ford is paralyzed and requires additional care with some of his routines. No hesitation at all with this, almost as though it was a non-event and something Lorrie was already familiar with and comfortable taking on. I could tell that it was important for her to connect with my babies and saw it in the pics she sent every day, along with an update……Even the day after I came home, she checked in to see how everyone was doing. :) Not only is Lorrie is easy to work with, she’s also calm, confident and has pro experience to interact positively with all types of dogs. Thanks to her, I was able to have a stress-free trip knowing my pups were happy and content being at home with her. I’m so grateful for finding Lorrie. Definitely will be re-booking.

I love that I can always count on Lorrie to give great updates while we’re gone. She always sends the best pics and Boone loves her!

Lorrie is the best! I can’t rave enough about our experience. Lorrie was so amazing- she even moved our elf on the shelf while we were gone. We highly recommend!!!
