About Lorraine
As a work holiday traveler in New Zealand, I've had the honor of house-sitting and working on lifestyle blocks around the country. I love any opportunity to understand the Kiwi way of life more, but I must admit; it feels like there's something missing when there's not an animal around.
I have a deep love for animals and an appreciation for what they teach us. I am a freelance writer and photographer by trade, so I've even had the pleasure of writing about animals for blog articles and photographing them. I even did a photo series documenting how animals help people with mental health.
Although I've been a pet sitter for the past several years, freelancing allowed me to take it more seriously and devote more to my pet-sitting clients while I was living in the U.S. I also was contracted with a company called Tails & Trails (Portland, Oregon) as a part-time dog walker January-August of 2022.
I've worked with dozens of different dog and cat breeds and client needs; working with me means that you can feel confident that your pet sitter knows what they're doing!
I am also traveling in a van for this year with my husband (also a BIG animal lover and a great, calm presence) - so I am open to traveling to any location for work.
My inbox is open, so don't hesitate to shoot me a message - I'd love to talk to you about your needs!

Lorraine and her partner looked after our house and dog for just over a week. They did a fantastic job of keeping our high energy Vizsla entertained and looking after our veggie patch! Would definitely recommend.
