Testimonials

 

"Loretta has been our dog walker and friend for years.  We're very fussy about our dogs- they really do mean the world to us.  So we don't trust them with just anyone.  There really aren't words to describe the care and love she has shown them.  When they're sick, she gives them their afternoon medicine.  When she noticed that one of them had leg issues after pulling particularly hard on the leash, she recommended a harness that has completely fixed the leg issue (and made her a lot easier to walk).  We've trusted her to give us daily updates- including during an incredibly tough end of life situation with one of them.  If you're sitting around wondering whom you should choose to take care of your furry kids- do yourself and your dogs a favor and just choose her.  There's a reason why her ratings are so insanely high.  And as a bonus, she really is an extraordinary human being.  We consider ourselves so incredibly fortunate to have met her." - Jesse E.


"Lorreta has been walking our energetic, other animal over-reactive black Labrador for close to six months now. Lacey is not an easy dog to walk, but Loretta has worked with her patiently. We have found Lorreta to be reliable, a good communicator and very trust worthy." - John M.


"We and our dog LOVE Lorreta!  She is reliable, we trust her completely - she is very responsible, knows our dog and has a great relationship with him; whether she is walking him or taking care of him for "house-sitting" extras - she takes wonderful care of him. We have used her for over two years and when she first started with us, we had three dogs - two who were very elderly and sick and she was simply awesome!  She was able to accommodate their various needs, which were in constant flux and really cared about them and our situation.  She's simply one of the best dog-walkers and care givers we have ever had!  She's really like our extended family!" - Peggy H.


"Lorreta is the most professional dog walker we have ever had.  From day 1 she was very clear and organized about scheduling and payments and, most importantly, she is just great with our dog Ruby.  Cannot say enough good things about her, I always feel 100% confident that my dog is in excellent hands when Loretta has her." - Leslie D.


"Really really love Loretta, and so does my dog!  She is so organized and professional, which in my experience is hard to find in a dog walker.  I work late so I'm so glad that I found her because now I feel totally confident that my dog is safe and well taken care of. Loretta is flexible and responsive, I would recommend her to anyone who wants to be sure their dog is happy and taken care of." - Alex M.


"Lorreta is an absolute gem! She has taken care of our 13.5 year-old-dog Cooper a few times, and we could not be happier with the wonderful, genuine way in which she cares for him. She brushes him and cuddles him, and I knew from the first time we met her, in the way she interacted with him, that he would be in good hands. She administers his meds as well and sends us updates and photos of him every time she visits. We trust her implicitly with our Cooper and our home.

In addition to all of that, she puts our trash bins out and takes them in, and she waters the garden.

We are very, very, very lucky to have been referred to her.

Thank you, Lorreta!

"Lorreta is absolutely wonderful!

She has taken care of my cats and dogs on several occasions. She is always on time, reliable and each day will send us updates, videos and pics of our fur babies.

All of our pets adore her.

We have referred her to many of our friends and neighbors for dog walking as well. Everyone has thanked me for the referral and has been more than pleased with her services.

She is always reachable and you can tell she has a genuine love for your pets and she treats them as her own.

I never have to worry when I am not home which is a great relief!!"

"Lorreta is amazing!  She loves both of our dogs and they love her. She is unbelievable dependable, responsive, attentive, professional, friendly, trustworthy, knowledgeable, experience...I could go on and on...  we could not be happier." - Allan W.


"We have been using Lorreta for the last 3 months. She walks our female ACD 3 times a week for 1/2 hr. and gives her a great workout! Lorreta is prompt, dependable and trustworthy. 5 stars are not enough!" - Benjamins C.


"We were very lucky to have found Lorreta!

She has taken great care of our dogs - taking them for three 30 minutes walks a week. When we first reached out to Lorreta, she offered to come by our place to meet us and the pups, and get the layout of the apartment. After that, she was always in touch with us, sending an update and a few photos after each walk. Her updates were great and very detailed, and it was clear that she cared a lot about our dogs. We also noticed that our dogs were better behaved on walks with us after Lorreta's help.

Would highly recommend her to anyone!"
- Kate W.


"Lorreta is the absolute BEST!  She always looks out for the best interest of our dog, Tilly, and provides pictures/feedback after every visit.  Tilly spends 30 minutes with Lorreta twice a week.  Their time together is spent walking, playing, and noshing on treats.  Lorreta tailors their time together based on the weather and Tilly's mood (she's a Frenchie), but it is clear that Tilly enjoys every visit.
 


Lorreta is flexible and has been willing to adjust her schedule to our needs.  We have referred Lorreta to friends and family and look forward to continuing to work with her ... as does Tilly!" - Aimee K.


"Loretta is a dream!! She has taken care of our dogs while we were out of town and day to day walks after the arrival of our new baby! She gives a vigorous full 30 min walk...our pups are always pooped afterwards. She is extremely reliable and I trust her completely in our home when we are away. The pups love her too!"


"lorreta is great! she walks our 2 dogs, tuna and bailey, 4 days a week, she is very responsible, sends me a text with pictures of how the dogs did after every walk. she is just fantastic!" - Bailey D.


"Love, love, love Lorreta! She's been walking my pups for 6 months and I couldn't be more happy. My boys love her and I love the daily updates about them that she texts to me. She lets me know if she thinks anything is off with them (a couple of paw injuries), if they've been up to mischief (stealing the neighbors' avocados), or if they just seem to be enjoying the day (finding Finley running around the vineyard when she shows up). And I love seeing the pictures of them that she sends. Whenever I have a special request (one of my pups is sensitive to heat, so wears a swamp cooler vest for walks when it's really hot) she's more than happy to take it up. It's so comforting to know that someone who truly cares about my boys is checking up on them, taking them for an outing, and giving them treats in the middle of the day. If you're looking for a dog walker and someone who will genuinely care for your pup, I highly(!) recommend Loretta. She's absolutely fabulous at her job!" - Kristy B.


"Loretta has been walking my pup for almost a year now and i couldn't be happier with the experience. She is very professional, reliable and trustworthy, I always feel secure in the knowledge that my furry friend is well taken care of. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a friendly and dependable dog walker." - Pilar L.
