Hey! I'm Lori, I'm 30 and I'm obsessed with animals. I work part time as naturopath and am super active outside when I'm not working! It clicked last year once I realised how I always stop to pat every dog on my walks, that I would LOVE to do it as a job on my days off so here I am! I have 2 rescue cats of my own, but also grew up with 2 family dogs. I love them like my absolute children and would love to give yours my love and time as well. I regularly housesit my family, friends and colleagues' pets and want to meet more of the community as well! I offer dog walking (30min / 1hr) and daytime house check-ins / feeds for cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits and birds of all age and size. My best days for walking are Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday but house check-ins can be flexible with my other job. I have my license and can drive to you, and take your pup to the beach if requested. I am safe with walks, and will respect other dogs by always keeping your loved one on a leash with a firm grip. I am calm with emergency situations, and will always keep you updated. I also follow and respect individual feeding requirements and routines - with regular check ins with photos/updates/messages to you. Due to my two cats already, I will only allow myself coming to your home as my home is not suitable for other pets. Located in Newcastle, can drive all over town with additional fees for 20km+ of distance to Central Coast / Nelson Bay areas.
