Pet care experience
Recently relocated from the Midwest, but originally from Florida, I work from home full time now in the tech industry and therefore am lucky enough to have a flexible schedule that allows me to help other's with their pup-care needs. I'm a proud dog mom to my 9 year old Golden Retriever, Barkley, who I've had since he was 8 weeks old. He was a gift, and is still the most precious one I have ever received! Prior to my life with him, I was raised with dogs, and through high school and college, I made extra money by watching neighbors' and friends' pets while they were out of town. As a teenager, I enjoyed spending portions of my summers working at my uncle's veterinary clinic in Tallahassee, Florida, where I did everything from assisting with surgeries to cleaning kennels to administering medications. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to entrust your baby's care with someone else (I've been there!). And while there's no substitute for a pet parent's love, let me lessen your worries and provide your pup with the best possible stand in. I look forward to meeting you!
Reviews
Booked Laura for doggy day care. Her home was dog friendly and she provided plenty of toys for my dog. Laura's Golden Retriever was also a good host, very friendly and looked like a good playmate for my dog. My dog got plenty of walks, and Laura posted several pictures each day of her stay. Will definitely book again in the future.
Laura was a great dog sitter for our pup, Kingsley. She lived in our building, so she'd walk down & check in on him regularly and spend as much time as needed with him. She's super sweet, and we definitely trusted her in our home and to take care of our dog. And, our dog loved her so much that anytime he'd see her in the building, he'd wag his tail and want to go give her kisses! Would definitely recommend her to watch your dog.
Laura was great! We had a situation where a sitter had to cancel the night before our vacation. Laura was responsive and came over to meet us and the dogs that same night. We were very comfortable with her and her enthusiasm for the dogs. While we were gone she sent us updates on the dogs, a few good questions and even photos a couple of times. When we arrived home there was a Welcome Home message, a thank you card and a vase of Sunflowers. It was a wonderful touch. I would highly recommend Laura - unless its a time that I am trying to book her!
I cannot say enough how impressed we were with our first experience using Rover and more importantly Laura! She really made it easy for us to go away for the weekend and know that Cooper was in excellent hands! She sent us so many photos and checked in frequently! We will definitely be using her again!!
