Certified trainer of anxiety/fear
Pet care experience
Dogs are everything I aspire to be. They give love freely, they’re always up for play, and they live in the moment. Dogs make everything a little bit happier—I became a Rover sitter so that I can make dogs happy in return! I am a Karen Pryor Academy for Animal Training and Behavior graduate and Certified Training Partner specializing in anxious and fearful dogs. Boarding is stressful - let me be a safer alternative. Have a behavioral issue? I'll work on it while you're away! I come to Rover with a great deal of experience. I work at the PetSmart PetsHotel taking care of the boarded dogs and cats and running doggie day camp! I know the signs of stress and aggression, and how to discourage them kindly. I've also been trained how to safely break up a dog fight if one should arise. Safety for both people and pets is my first priority! I was a 6 week intern at Best Friends Animal Society and I've also fostered both cats and dogs with health and behavioral issues. It's my dream to make problems dogs adoptable again! When it comes to dogs, big, small, I love them all! Though I have a weakness for the little ones. And pit bulls—I love them most of all! There are so many ways to have fun with a pup—we can for a nice walk or a good, long hike (if your dog is well behaved on a leash), or snuggle up at home with a good book! I prefer to stay close to the home and do as little driving with your pet as possible for safety reasons, but this area is so great for walks that we don’t have to go far for fun! I’m really excited to meet you and your pup! Let’s connect and see what works out!

This is the first time using Rover.com and I am absolutely impressed with Laura! She was amazing! Very professional and she really cares about your babies! I recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! I wouldn’t book anybody else! 5 stars!
Huge thanks to Laura for helping me with my girlie again! Professional, kind and responsive as usual. Will absolutely be requesting her again
Amazing communication! Lots of pictures of my girl and was so accommodating. Will absolutely be requesting for anymore sits or walks for my girl!

Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know the dogs general temperament and reaction to people, other dogs, other animals, etc. Any potential problem behaviors should be noted as well, such as aggression, fearfulness, counter surfing, eating too fast, etc. I love all dogs equally regardless of size or breed! At the meet-and-greet, I do ask that your dog be leashed for the safety and comfort of everyone involved. I’ll ask you lots of questions to ensure your dog’s routine changes as little as possible and they will be as happy as possible! My aim is to provide excellent customer service to both pets and humans! I'm always in contact with the owners with frequent updates and pictures, and I pay such close attention to animals in my care that I often catch potential problems that the owner hasn't spotted yet!
A typical day
We can go for walks or on hikes. I love hiking! We can even go splashing in my kiddy pool if your dog likes water (bath afterward, of course!) I’ll ask you in advance about your dog’s routine—and I’ll stick to it as close as possible!
