about.
hello,
I’m Tori.
I provide mindful, heart-led care for your home and pets — with complete focus on safety, trust, and peace of mind.
Our homes are sanctuaries, and our pets are family. Entrusting someone with either — especially a beloved animal — is no small thing. Pets rely on us completely, and it can feel incredibly vulnerable to leave them in someone else’s care. I understand this deeply, which is why I chose to offer the kind of presence I would want for my own: someone calm, capable, and wholeheartedly trustworthy.
This work is personal to me. I bring focused, intuitive attention to the homes and animals I care for — attuned to their routines, personalities, and needs. Their wellbeing is my priority, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s a slow morning walk, medication at a set time, or simply a quiet companion nearby, I offer them familiarity, comfort, and consistent care in your absence.
My live-in service ensures your home remains safe, cared for, and gently upheld while you’re away. For pets, this gentle continuity — staying in their own environment, surrounded by the familiar — helps them feel secure, settled, and loved.
I work with one household at a time, offering full presence, unwavering focus, and the kind of personalised care you can truly depend on.
Tori
behind the name.
Maitri (pronounced my-tree) — a gentle nod to my middle name, Marie - is a Sanskrit word often translated as “loving-kindness,” though its meaning runs deeper. It speaks to a steady, heartfelt wish for the well-being of others - a quiet, enduring goodwill.
This principle sits at the heart of everything I do. It’s the quality that guides how I live, and how I care for the homes and animals entrusted to me. Above all, Maitri reflects the peace of mind I aim to offer my clients, every time they step away from the place they call home.
why I do this work.
This work is more than a service — it’s a reflection of my deep love and respect for animals. Being around them brings me more joy than anything else. Their presence grounds me, teaches me presence, and reminds me what really matters: gentleness, trust, and care.
I’ve always cherished the quiet comfort of home life and the simple, meaningful tasks that come with it. Combining that with caring for animals feels like the most natural, fulfilling thing I could offer. It’s not just what I do — it’s who I am.
Animals are sensitive, soulful beings. To be trusted with their care is something I never take lightly. I aim to show up for them with calm, patience, and genuine heart. I believe they feel that, and I believe you will too.
This is why I do what I do — to bring peace of mind through loving, mindful, and respectful care.
