Lori's Loving Pet Sitting is the only company I have been able to completely trust to care for our aging dog while we are away from home for long weekends, vacations, etc. We are able to leave our dog at home in a familiar environment and have the dog walker come by and check on her three times each day. Added bonus is that the owner, Lori, sends a daily recap of how the day went for extra piece of mind. I highly recommend Lori's Loving Pet Sitting. If I could give 10 stars I would!

I've used Lori's Loving Pet Sitting a number of times during the past several years to care for my pup. That's included both overnight stays and several-visits-per-day arrangements when I've traveled out of town. Each time, LLPS has been fantastic. Lori and her team have consistently been excellent at communicating with me before and during the sitting, they've followed my lengthy and complex instructions to the letter, have seemed to always provide genuinely kind and loving care, and ultimately have been a very good and competitive $ value compared to alternatives I've tried previously (kennels/boarders, and other sitters from my network of friends and neighbors). I only use LLPS now. With Lori's team, my dog is happier, clearly less stressed, and never sick from kennel cough or the like when I come home. I *HIGHLY* recommend LLPS.

Lori is absolutely the best! She took great care of my 2 cats when I went out of town last summer and made sure they were fed, had plenty of water, and entertained. After I lost my sweet senior cat on NYE, she bought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers and sent me a sweet card. I'm so grateful to have a sitter like Lori!

Lori is very responsive, and sent Jamie. Right away I knew she was a good fit for my cat and my dog, but she still went the extra mile to make sure it was a good fit. I got updates, even photo of a happy kitty, who is never happy someone else is in the apartment. Felt very secure having this service visit.

Lori and her team are amazing! They are flexible when travel schedules go awry. They are experienced with our menagerie of animals (cats, dogs, rabbits). We even have some special needs pets and they gladly support their care with special feeding instructions. We’ve utilized their services many, many times in the last couple of years and will continue to do so!
