Ciao everyone! My name is Lorena de Carlo, and I’m an Italian living in Brisbane with a huge passion for animals. I’ve always had a deep love for animals, which motivated me to start my journey as a pet sitter and aspiring dog groomer. Over time, I’ve gained some experience caring for pets, including walking dogs, feeding them, and ensuring their well-being. I am also continuously improving my skills by studying pet grooming, with a completed CPD certification in “Working with Dogs” and a Pet First Aid certification.
What drives me is the joy of working with animals and knowing that I’m contributing to their happiness and comfort. I understand how important your pets are, and I aim to provide them with a safe, loving environment while they are in my care.
Their health and safety are my top priority. I look forward to meet your furry family members and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve!

I take great pride in being organized and ensuring that every aspect of my pet care revolves around the well-being of the dogs.
I’m detail-oriented, which means I pay attention to everything from their feeding schedules to their individual behavior.
I maintain a clean and hygienic environment because I understand the importance of keeping dogs in a safe, clean environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed (even though, let’s be honest, our little furry friends would probably prefer rolling around in a pile of dirt 😂)
I am also very patient and calm, which helps me manage pets of all temperaments, including those who may be anxious or nervous.
A dog with separation anxiety simply needs extra attention, and my goal is to make the time your dog spends away from you as enjoyable as possible, ensuring that they receive all the care, affection, cuddles and love they need to feel safe and happy while you’re away.
I understand how important it is for you to receive updates and stay informed while you’re away.
I have a texting routine in place with texts and photos to keep you informed on how your dog is doing.
It’s my pleasure to send fun pictures of your furry friend to brighten your day and give you peace of mind.
I am punctual and reliable, always making sure to meet the specific needs of each pet.
As I’m studying to become a professional dog groomer, I have the flexibility to dedicate time and attention to your pet.
My love for animals is my driving force, pushing me to continuously improve my skills and knowledge.
