“Laurel is awesome! This is our second time booking her. The first time she stayed at our house with our 2 cats and she took great care of them and we didn’t have any concerns. The house was clean and tidy when we came home. The second time we booked her for drop ins and she was great too. She was on time and played with our cats and sent some great pictures. She is quick to reply to any messages.”

About: I have had animals of all kinds growing up, I also have my First aid and Cpr for equine and working towards getting one for dogs and cats! I am currently studying and trying to pursue becoming a ferrier,so my schedule is flexible and I would work around the schedule of the pets I will be watching I've worked with reactive dogs,I've muzzle trained some extreme cases.i don't like to let dogs off leash unless it's a inclosed dedicated space. I make sure doors are always closed so no chance for escaping, I care about what they eat and choking hazards.
About: Safety is my love language: safety that comes from structure, structure that is backed by deep philosophy and experience. Whether we're talking about emotional safety (a dog feeling secure and confident to interact with the outside world), or safety for other humans and other dogs, safety for me as a pet professional, and safety for the owners in the habits I'm encouraging the dog to inhabit, my service is based on safety above all because without safety none of us can thrive. I'm busy building a farm care business that expands across Canada. All my waking hours and some sleeping hours too are spent obsessing about pet care, as dogs form the center of this pet care philosophy. Continuing onwards in a concentric circle, cats are followed by other farm animals. When it comes to dogs, i work with treats to encourage a strong place command. Once the place command is clear, i know that any time the pup is off his cushion, it is time for a walk.
