Lori’s Pet Sitting Service was started in 2006 by Lori Nelson, a resident of Rochester Hills. The decision to become a professional pet sitter was a 6 year long process while working full time as a Financial Aid Officer at a local college.  Lori has always loved animals and grew up with two cats named Gizmo and Cuddles and a German Shepherd named Bear.  She now has one cat named Princess which she cherishes. 

Lori’s Pet Sitting Service makes a wonderful alternative to kennels.  According to the American Humane Society, pets are happiest when they're at home, surrounded by familiar sights, sounds and smells.
 
In the past, however, most pet owners had few choices concerning care for their animals when they were away from home. They could turn to friends, neighbors or professional boarders -- all of which are possible solutions, but not ideal for every pet. Many have found that a new alternative presents the best choice of all - a professional pet sitter who comes into the home to care for the pet while the owner is away.

The familiar environment, diet and exercise routine, along with the personal attention provided by a professional pet sitter eliminates the trauma of being transported and minimizing exposure to illnesses of other animals are certainly additional advantages to the owner and pet alike.

Whether for business or pleasure, traveling can be stressful, especially when leaving sad-eyed best friends at home! Knowing your pets are well cared for eases the stress and gives you piece of mind.
