"Lori has been helping us since the first evening we brought Moose home at 9 weeks old. I was a little nervous at first about having someone come into our home, but those concerns disappeared so quickly with Lori. Not only does she have a genuine love of animals, but she has proven to be so dependable, reliable, flexible and professional. Everyday when she visits Moose she takes the time to send me a text message to let me know that he is doing ok. It is a small gesture that has meant the world to me. I have really come to count on her and I could not have gotten through the last few months of puppy life without her."

"Lori has been taking care of our dog Margo for more than a year now. Margo is a high energy Hungarian Vizsla. Lori has been walking Margo daily at lunch time. She also dog sat at our place overnight multiple times while we were away. Not only she has proven her love for animals but she also has demonstrated her amazing dog management skills. She uses positive reinforcement techniques and adapts to your dog's needs and personality. Lori is a caring, reliable and trustworthy person. Lori is also very flexible and has agreed to many schedule changes to accommodate us. In addition, she is always just a text message away to lend a hand at the very last minute in case of an emergency. I highly recommend Lori's pet care services. Lori will love and care for your animal as if it was her own. She is simply wonderful and we don't know what we would do without her!"

"Lori is very reliable and has greatly helped us get through the puppy years! We feel so comfortable and confident in leaving Kobe in her hands and always come home to a happy and exercised puppy. She is accommodating to our schedules and we can always count on her when we need her services."

"I knew Lori was the right pick for watching the ladies for an extended time when she came in the house, sat on the floor and asked the cats'names, then played with the cats before talking business. A catsitter that genuinely cares about the cats? That was priceless to me. When I came home after the month, the ladies were not lonely at all, they were quite content. While I was gone, I received photos and videos of them so I could see how good they were. Lori is also often available last-minute, for those of us with crazy work schedules it helps to have someone to trust nearby ready and willing, and excited, to visit my little ladies if I can't be there."

"I feel very fortunate to have found Lori. Earlier this year (2014), I needed someone to look after my newly diagnosed diabetic cat “Chad”. Learning about her background and abilities, I knew that he would be in good hands. While I was away, Lori continued his regime of checking his blood glucose levels and giving him his insulin as needed. She even sent me updates putting my mind at ease. Her reliability and skills are combined with her love of animals. Thank you!"

"We had Lori take care of our 'fur gang' over the Christmas & New Year's holidays 2014. As Lori has experience as a vet tech & two of our 'babies' require meds, she seemed like the answer to our prayers once we lost our original pet sitter of 15 years. With our first meeting we were very comfortable with Lori & were relieved to have found someone that even our big 'fraidy cat' Simon accepted.
Lori went beyond our expectations. Her regular update emails & her hilarious photo shoot of our gang gave us the warm & fuzzy of knowing they were well cared for. We highly recommend Lori & will no doubt use her in the future."

"Lori has looked after my cats several times and always provides quality care and loving support. Lori has a natural ability to communicate with animals and approaches them with sensitivity, kindness and with a sense of humour. She sees each animal as unique with special qualities. Most recently, Lori was able to administer subcutaneous fluids to my sick elderly cat, Abbie, to give her some quailty of life in the end stage of her life. Abbie thanks you Lori for your compassion and expertise!"

"Lori took such amazing care of my 2 kitties. I am so impressed with everything she provided. Her fee is very nominal considering her level of care and concern for my 4 legged fur babies. She kept me updated throughout my one week vacation. Every visit she would send me a little message to let me know how they were doing, she even sent me pictures, which was great since I missed them so much and it was my first time leaving them alone. I will definitely use her services again and will recommend her to everyone I know!"
