About Loretta & Dean

Hello!

Though I have never been a professional pet sitter, I am the official pet sitter of my friends and family.

I previously volunteered for the local animal shelter in Asia as well as for the World Wildlife Fund.

I currently have two cats of my own - one that was saved from Asia and brought over and the other I am temporarily taking care of while a friend's family member is working abroad for 2 years.

I work remotely from home, for a tech company based in L.A that specializes in software for the entertainment industry.

My job entails creating partnerships and supporting existing clients in the film, television and commercial sector.

I work flexible hours and can travel when needed.

I am an animals advocate and have participated in an Asia wide demonstration which led to the creation of the Animal Protection Law in Macau.

Most importantly, I am a kind, honest and reliable human being.

I will take care of your fur babies like they are my own.

I will respect your rules and take care of your fur baby as you wish.

I will make sure they are comfortable, well loved and cared for.

References are available from those who I've pet sat for.

For 1 home visit, I will spend 30 minutes with your furbaby, though I am flexible should you have any specific requests/needs.

Due to my flexible schedule, I allow for last-minute cancellations within reason (preferably before I've had a chance to leave for the commute).

My favorite animal movies include Beethoven, Homeward Bound and Look Who's Talking Now.

Loretta & Dean have been the perfect experience. From first contact they were prompt and clear on their messages. We met briefly in person and they are wonderful people with a love for our fury friends.

When we were away they sent us photo updates and detailed daily reports on how our cats were doing.

Even on the finally day, letting us know if we are delayed on our return they could visit the cats if needed.

Was just a warm, easy and comfortable experience.

We couldn't recommend them more and we plan to use them going forward.

Loretta and Dean went above our expectations and did a phenomenal job caring for our 2 fur babies during our travels. They are both knowledgeable cat parents themselves which was our top priority in our search for a sitter. Our cats were safe and comfortable with them and warmed up quite quickly even after the first meeting at our home. In particular, our shy Loki seemed to like Dean so much (perhaps even more than us? 😂) and he accepted lots of petting, which we were very surprised by and happy to see. They both seemed to enjoy both of their company especially during their playtime routine. We provided specific details in our instructions and overall all went well. Great communication and daily photo/video updates were provided. I would recommend them to anyone in search of a trustworthy pet sitter to do home visits. We feel very fortunate to have found them.
