About: For all first time Rover Client you can use the following promo code for discount! 💕 Promo Code: LAURAT41796 🐾 One dog at a time policy 🐾 Experienced with reactive pups, rescues, seniors and dogs with special needs 🐾 Positive Reinforcement (R+) Throughout my journey as a pet sitter on Rover, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a diverse range of dogs with their own unique personalities and temperaments. This experience has equipped me with the skills to cater to dogs at every stage of life: from playful puppies, energetic teenagers to mature adults and cherished seniors. Additionally, I’ve provided specialized care for rescues who have faced challenging circumstances, ensuring their individual needs and preferences are met with compassion and understanding. My experience also extends to caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including those who are blind or deaf, allowing me to provide tailored care and support to every furry friend in my care. I’m also experienced with dogs of all sizes from small lap dogs to large-sized gentle giants. I love all animals equally, I’m sure my little guinea pigs would agree ❤️ 🌈 I’ve lovingly taken cared of my best friend, Cooper for 7 years from puppyhood to adulthood. My golden boy, despite being reactive and prone to nervousness has taught me valuable lessons in caring for anxious pups. I’ve found positive reinforcement training to be incredibly effective, as it not only fosters obedience but also strengthens the bond between pet and caregiver. ☺️ The well-being and comfort of your pet is my utmost priority which is why I only take one dog at a time to ensure they feel safe, calm and happy during their stay. (Exception for multiple doggos from the same family of course 🐶) Every furry guest in my care receives personalized attention to make them feel at home. I’m more than happy to provide frequent photos, videos updates as I know exactly how it feels when your cherished family member is not with you and the longing to know how they’re faring in your absence. For a smooth and seamless experience, let me know all the details I should know about your pet(s) - their daily routines, including wake/bed time, meal schedules, play/walk routines and preferred sleeping arrangements. Following this we can then arrange a meet & greet so your furry friend and I can get acquainted before their stay! I work from home full time, so I have the flexibility to take your pups out for frequent potty breaks and walks. Between work, exercise, personal and family time, I will have plenty of time throughout the week and weekend to make sure your pups are well taken care of like they were my own. I live in a neighborhood area with schools, parks, trails and dog parks so there are many areas that we can go for walkies on! Note: I don’t take any client pups to dog parks, off-leash areas for safety purposes unless I have your permission.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
