4. Sarah W.

“Wish I could leave more stars. Sarah was fantastic and I so loved the updates and pictures with each visit. I could see how comfortable the my pups were. It was my first time leaving the pups for an extended time but on the pre-visit I felt much more comfortable given Sarah’s interaction with the girls and her questions that showed how she thinks of everything. I came home to very happy dogs and my house and yard looked fantastic.”


5. Jazz B.

“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”

If you are looking for someone who loves animals with all her heart, Loreli would be that person.”

About: I care for dogs like they're my own. I have 20 years of pet care experience. I am equipped to handle any size dog. I love to take them running , teach new tricks, and overall make them feel like they're at home. Even if your dog is high energy, I will run with them , play games, and keep them entertained for as long as they're under my care. If your dog loves belly rubs, tricks for treats, and needs an enormous amount of attention then look no further. I can provide your dog with the home away from home experience and whether you're at work, or on vacation, your mind can be at ease because your dog will be safe and in good hands. I also do drop-ins and I can watch your dog in your home as well. I currently work from home, 35 hours a week so whether I need to take a dog for a walk or drop ok to feed some cats or dogs , it’s not a problem for me at all. I care for my clients pets as if they were my own. I don’t like to be bored so when your pet is with me , they won’t be bored either !
