My life simply would not work without Lori. She has made such a difference for me and my little completely wild Yorkie puppy. I honestly don't even want to consider moving to a new neighborhood if we would lose Lori. Emmitt adores her. She is so flexible and works with my insane and rapidly changing schedule. And I love how he can spend the day with her and he's getting to play with other dogs and he comes home so happy and exhausted! I trust her beyond measure - and to be clear, I am one of those childless dog owners that considers my puppy to be my baby. I travel 2-3 times a month and I have no worries at all now because I know Emmitt is not only well taken care of, but he's loved and he gets to have so much fun time with Lori and the other lucky pups she takes care of. Cannot recommend her enough. She has really changed our life. We both love her so much. read more

I have been working with Lori for almost a year now and she's such a lifesaver! We have 3 cats at home and one of them requires supervised diet for weight loss. Lori usually comes twice a day when we travel, or she can stay overnight if needed. All our cats love Lori. Whenever we got home from a trip, the cats all seemed super relaxed and well taken care of. I don't know what I'd do without Lori! read more

Lori has been caring for various pets of mine for about three years and I don't know how I got so lucky as to find such a caring, loving petsitter. She goes above and beyond just coming in, feeding, cleaning the litter box and leaving; she actually interacts with my cat, by playing with him, cuddling him, and making sure he doesn't feel alone or scared while I'm away. And she sends me photos and videos of him because she knows how much I miss him. My current cat, an older gentleman who I adopted about a year and a half ago, has bonded with me in a very attached way, and a recent prolonged hospital stay had us separated for the first time. Lori came every day and made sure he wasn't lonely, and when I finally got released, I came home to a happy cat. I cannot recommend her more highly. read more

Lori is absolutely wonderful. She treats our dog like her own family member! She is super accommodating to any last minute requests and is flexible with our weird work hours. I don't know what we'd do without her, honestly. I would highly recommend Lori for any of your animal walking/sitting needs. read more

Lori is seriously the best! Quick to respond, always accommodating, loving and caring to our two small dogs. I absolutely recommend her!

Lori has been helping us with our three fur-babies for a bit now. My partner and I have busy schedules where things come up often. Lori started taking care of our cat while we were away for a holiday trip but we quickly asked her to help with our pups, as well, including walks, meals and play time. Lori is not only truly a competent animal-care-provider, but she also has that thing.. that calm warmth that people who are amazing with animals have. Our babies can sense that and they love her back. She always works with our schedules even if it's last minute- 5 stars from us. read more

I had family emergency and I had to call a last minute pet sitter, I was so lucky to find Lori! I have two rabbits and it's hard for me to find a pet sitter to take care of them. Lori told me that she has had experience taking care of rabbits. When I got back the bunnies were happy and not stressed at all! I strongly recommend her! read more

Lori is a great pet sitter! I have 2 kitties and anytime I'm away on vacation I always call Lori. I've had terrible luck with pet sitters in the past (including Rover), but will be using Lori for a long time to come. She's reliable and you can tell really loves fur babies. read more

Lori is a wonderful pet sitter. I travel often, and am often gone for 2-3 weeks at a time. When Lori stays with my dogs I'm not worried about whether they are okay-- they get lots of walks, pets and attention. When I come home, they are relaxed and well taken care of. One of my dogs is a grouchy senior, but she still adores Lori and does very well with her. Lori gives them their meds, takes them on hikes, and generally just ensures they are safe and happy, which is a huge relief for me. I think all pet parents struggle to find responsible, trustworthy pet sitters, so I feel lucky to be able to rely on Lori and her team when I head out of town. I absolutely recommend them. read more

We recently moved into a new apartment and have desperately been looking for a consistent walker for our two socially-anxious pups & Lori has been the gift that keeps on giving. Not only did she maintain a calm & reassuring demeanor when our youngest pup, who has had territorial issues with walkers in the past, greeted her with skepticism, she had him jumping with excitement the next walk. Truly everything us anxious dog-owners could have asked for, Lori is it. The real deal. Could not recommend more. read more

Lori is the best! She is super reliable, sweet, caring, and loves ur pet so much. lol only complaint is that I'm woried my dog likes her more than me! read more

Lori has been taking care of pets (all cats) for close to ten years. I have a habit of adopting old cats. It's my thing. I travel quite a bit for work and Lori has taken care of my last 6 cats. One very large and old Siamese Cat became ill when I was out of the country. Lori handled everything until I could get back. She quickly took him to the vet, was in constant contact with me and visited my cat until I got back. Lori offered to be there when I had to put him down and that is just one example of the many things she has done for my pets. I highly recommend Lori if you are looking for a pet sitter that not only plays with your pets when your gone but is aware of the health. When I'm out of town I receive a pic/video and a text from her daily and how my pets are doing. Lori will is extremely loyal to myself and my pets! Feel free to reach out to me and I'm happy to give more examples. Elizabeth read more

Very happy with her services, I hired her to help me twice a week with giving subq fluids to my dog who absolutely hates subq fluids and would growl at me when I tried to administer it. While he still doesn't like subq fluids she has done a great job administering it to him and despite coming over to poke needles in him, he still loves her and gets really excited when he sees her! He also doesn't growl anymore but is just a little fussy when it's time to poke the needle in. Thanks for all your help! read more

Lori is AMAZING!!! For the first time I had to travel for work and I was extremely nervous about leaving my beloved dog and cat behind as I never spent one night away from them - also, my dog is special needs. Lori was very communicative since we first connected, she is honest and really loves animals and wants their best for them and their owners. She even learned Italian words so she could speak with my cat who only understands Italian!! She also keeps constant communication - FaceTime, texts, videos - my pets very so happy, they could barely tell I was gone for 5 days. Lori is very trustworthy and kind! I will definitely request her help again for any future trips and I highly recommend her!!! read more

Lori is an amazing dog walker!!! When I needed help with my young Golden Retriever Lily, I searched on Yelp and found Lori and her great reviews. As usual, Yelp led me in the right direction!!! My dog can be a bit nervous around new people. From the beginning, Lori was great with Lily. She came around pretty quickly and warmed up to Lori. Because of my freelance schedule, I would need to ask Lori to shift the schedule on a week to week basis. She would always be very accommodating. What a blessing! I highly recommend Lori to anyone searching for a trustworthy person to help with pups! read more

My partner and I have been thoroughly pleased with Lori. She takes such good care of our dogs on their walks, taking into consideration that our older dog is arthritic. We've hired her to walk our other dog daily while we're working so that he gets a nice, long, safe walk. We trust Lori completely with our dogs! She even feeds them for us on occasion when we can't get home in time to feed them. She's wonderful! read more

We found Lori through Yelp. From the very start she was easy to work with. She came over the first time, it was easy to schedule with her, I gave her the info and I think that was the last time face to face. I've used her 3 or 4 times and she really couldn't have made things easier. Her rates are more than fair. Thank you Lori we're grateful for your help!! read more

Lori is just a lifesaver! She has been walking our fur babies for 3 years. Our dogs Diablo and Lola just love her. We live in a high rise, so she comes and walks them every afternoon. They are always thrilled to see her and pooped from their exercise when they return. Lori also watches our dogs when we travel for short trips. Right in our own home! So easy! And no disruption for our babies. Thanks Lori! read more

Lori is so great! She takes my 3 dogs for a 30 minute walk twice a day, and they're always excited to see her. She is incredibly consistent and on the rare occasion that she has to cancel, she organizes equally qualified and responsible colleagues to take over, so I'm never left scrambling. She is also very flexible, and often helps with picking up my dogs from the groomers. 100% recommended! read more

I was very disappointed!!! I came home from a 5 day vacation to something I was afraid of. My cats had not been feed for over 24hrs. I left directions on how to use our feeders and she even took a video. She said that she understood. Yet she still did it wrong and let my cats starve. Not only did they starve, she left a cabinet with plastic bags in it, wide open for my cat to chew on. She knew that my cat chews plastic, I specified to be sure to close the cabinet so it wouldn't be a problem. My cat ended up chewing the bags and vomited up plastic. She also left the light in the other room on. We specifically said NOT to. She also said she would send pictures every other day, which she did NOT! I should have known something was up when she wanted a check the first day. Every other place handles payment after. After contacting her about my concerns she would not give me any part of my money back. Instead she offered 10% off my next service. I WILL NEVER HIRE HER AGAIN! read more

See all

Lori has been walking our two dogs (pitty and hound) on and off for a few years now. She is really great with them and they adore her. Lori is very accommodating when it comes to our needs and scheduling. I never worry about my boys when Lori has them. All in all 10/10. Lori is the first call (and usually the last) when we need our dogs walked or pet sitting services. read more

Lori has been taking care for of my four dogs for a couple of years now. They are all rescues and each has their unique challenges and she is great with them. My dogs all adore her, and I find her to be extremely reliable. She sees them M-F, and stays with them when I am out of town. I definitely recommend her! read more

My family is new to the LA area and did not know where to turn when we needed a pet sitter. We love our "fur kids" and are very picky about who watches them when we are away. When we met with Lori for the initial consultation she put us at ease! We decided to book her services for our cats and dog over the holidays. I could not be more pleased with her care while we were away. She kept in touch with updates and pictures. I was so happy to hear how well things were going, and that my "fur kids" were happy. My dog is a bit of a problem dog, and Lori happily accommodated my special requests. We will absolutely use Lori's pet sitting services again in the future! And I would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a pet sitter. read more

Lori is a lifesaver! She has taken care of my dog and two cats many times and always does an amazing job. She always lets you know how they are doing and stays in touch. You can tell she loves animals and truly cares for them. My pets love her! read more

I have been using Lori's service for a couple years already and can't be happier! I know I can absolutely trust her with my dog. She always sends me nice updates about walks and tries to be flexible when I need her. I'm pretty sure if my dog could talk, he would say "I love Lori!". read more

Lori is fantastic. I'm away a lot so she takes care of my two felines and I am so happy that it is her that takes care of them. She always keeps me informed about how they are doing and that definitely makes me feel good about being away. She really cares about what she's doing and her prices are reasonable. If you're looking for someone to walk your dog or mind the cat call Lori and they will be in the best hands. read more

When you leave your furry family at home during a vacation, you worry about them. Lori takes that worry away. She takes such good care of our cat that he thinks of her as family. He absolutely loves her and that eases the separation anxiety. We love her because we know he's in good hands and that she will care for him like he's her own. She even sends daily updates with photos so we can check in. There is no one we'd rather have taking care of our animals. I highly recommend Lori. read more

Lori has been my kitty sitter for one year now. She does a fantastic job and is always reliable. I am so glad I had originally found her on Yelp early last year. She is highly recommended. read more

If you love your dog(s) and/or cat(s) you can rest assured that Lori is the individual you want to trust your 4 legged loved one(s) with. Lori has been providing daily walks for our two dogs for the past year and she has also provided overnights - we wouldn't trust anyone else. My older miniature schnauzer is not only on 2x a day medication, she has been injured and is slowing down. Lori gladly used a doggie stroller to take her out to do her business and she also provided that extra loving touch. If it weren't for Lori my husband and I would not have been able to travel to see our two granddaughters. Lori provided daily reports and photos of our two dogs as well as a video or two. She is not just loving and caring, she is extremely professional and accomodating when emergencies arise. I highly recommend Lori to care for your 4 legged loved one(s). read more

Lori is the best! She was referred to me by a trusted friend so I had a good feeling going in but you never know. Needless to say, she has been a godsend for me. I interviewed for a new job and they wanted me to start immediately which put me in a bind in regards to my 13 year old Yorkie. She cannot be left alone for more than 5 hours or she will literally start throwing up so since I was going to be gone 10 hours a day I needed someone desperately. Lori came to my rescue! I have her come in and walk Mia every day Monday through Friday. She even gave Mia her prescription eye drops for me for several weeks when she needed them. She is 100% reliable and always texts me to let me know how things went at the visit. She's also available by text and responds timely. She really knows animals and I feel very secure that if anything were to happen with Mia when she was with her she'd know exactly what to do. Overall she is just very knowledgeable about both dogs and cats. On another note, one of my neighbors told me they saw her with Mia while I was at work one day and that Mia absolutely loved her and seemed so happy so that was very reassuring! I would highly recommend Lori and Mia and I are so grateful to have found her. read more

Lori is an amazing Pet Mamma while I'm out of town. She's great with my two cats and gives them the TLC they need while I'm gone. You can tell she truly loves what she does and gives the best care possible! read more

Laurie does a great job! She made a giant difference in my peace and enjoyment while away. This amount of care, trust and professionalism is most valuable. read more

Lori is the best...we have been using her services for several years now and she has never disappointed us! We never worry, although miss our Gracie, when we are away. We know she is in good hands with Lori. Jessie (who has now passed away) and Gracie (senior cat) love Lori...there was no doubt. Gracie is always relaxed and seems happy when we return from a trip. Lori always makes exceptions to add us to her schedule if we need a last minute pet-sitting for Gracie. During our trip, because she knows we like it, she sends pics of Gracie and keeps us informed always as to how Gracie is doing. We couldn't ask for a better pet-sitter. She gets the highest recommendation from us! read more

Not sure why my original review got flagged but I still think Lori is a great pet sitter. I don't post a lot here so maybe that is the issue. But I stand by my "flagged review" and i am not a bot.... really. read more
