Veterinary Technician in Your Home!

Pet care experience

"Finding a real petsitter in LA is like hoping for a good Uber driver! You really don't know what you're going to get until you're already on the road!" - S.T. Hi! My name is Lory and I am a GREAT petsitter. As a veterinary technician with over 15 years of experience providing pet care and medical services to the San Fernando Valley and the Greater Los Angeles area, I have vast experience, education and skills beyond that of your average dog lover! I promise that I will exceed your expectations! My rates vary by distance and each pet's individual needs and distance from my service area. Please contact me for your own custom quote! All of the animals I look after are special and I take care of them as if they were my own. I also take pride in making sure that each furbaby does not feel the disruption in their routine while you are away and help keep the calm home environment that most of us feel pets prefer over large boarding facilities. As a strong, experienced Alpha, I can care for a pack of any size and all species, from dogs and cats, to rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish and horses! Please let me know about ALL pets in your home so we can plan accordingly. If your pets needs any medications, I am fully capable of administering oral medications (both pills and liquids), as well as subcutaneous and intramuscular injections and subcutaneous fluids. I have a vast amount of experience with sensitive, fearful, or aggressive dogs that may have a hard time staying away from home and with dogs that suffer from separation anxiety. Services for aggressive pups may have an additional fee, but not always. Ask for a custom quote so we can find what works best! I am always willing to help! ************************************************ Please include the following information so I can give you the best price quote in the shortest time possible! - All pets in the home, names, ages and special needs (fish too!) -Any medications, vitamins, diet requirements -Information about their day to day needs (if your dog needs more walks, or long walks, cats that must be separate from other pets, if pets are encouraged or discouraged to sleep in bed etc.) There is not such thing as too much information! -The closest major intersection to your home so I can estimate distance. I service ALL areas with fair rates. ************************************************ Other services offered, but not limited to are -Trips to the vet or arranging a Veterinarian to come to your home -Trips and from the groomer, including getting fussy cats into carriers -Field trips to the beach, dog park, hikes or other adventures (please note all additional services have extra fees) ************************************************ **Please make sure that your pet has a collar with his or her name and your phone number, available. A written and signed medical authorization will be required in case of an emergency. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to care for your furbabies! *********************************************************************************** Overnight care - 5pm on arrival day through 10am on departure day covered by nightly rate unless otherwise discussed. Additional fees may apply if additional services are needed past 10am on the final day. Please note that in-home, overnight care does not equal 24 hour care. If your dog needs hospice care or a cannot be alone for more than 3-4 hours, other fees are required to cover additional services. Regular rates begin at $75/night for 1 dog within a 5 mile radius. Additional fees will be applied according to distance and number of pets in the home. Extended stays of 12 nights or more will receive a 10% discount on the total estimate, before medication fees or other fees. Holiday rates apply to night of holiday and the night before and after.

Lori was very professional, and we were very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her. She even went above and beyond our expectations and taught her a new command. Lory is outstanding!!!!! Thank you Lory!!!!

After having a last minute trip pop up and all whilst having two Frenchies with a long list of issues, Lory stood out on top above the rest with her Vet Tech experience. One of our Frenchies suffers from a spinal condition from birth that affects his mobility and it also means he needs manual urination and fecal expression... Not an easy task and we would only trust someone like Lory who had experience. She was not only educated in this, but also took super care of both our fur babies and our home. We will be asking Lory to return on our next trip, for sure! Two thumbs up!

Lory was patient, loving and understanding with a senior dog with a lot of attitude and fear issues. Plus, she was very communicative with me while I was away. I would definitely book her again.
