Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs or care such as medications or behaviors would be good to know. Any potential triggers that could cause fear or anxiety in your pet is important to know so I may avoid those stimuli. The name and number for a preferred veterinarian in the area in case of emergencies.

A typical day

I love to play games like fetch and chase, I also have some experience training dogs so I could incorporate some fun sit/stay or agility training!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Laura! I'm a Graduate of the University of Rhode Island and I work seasonally as a wildlife biologist. I have experience with lots of pet species including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and lizards. I was a volunteer at the Humane Society of Greater Nashua for a year where I was trained to care for, train, and walk dogs. I also have experience taking care of my friend's pets while they are away on vacation. I am comfortable with just about all types of animals and I really love big dogs! I am really looking forward to meeting some new pets and having a great time getting to know them. I am happy to work on some walking techniques that I learned during my time at the humane society such as loose-leash walking and basic commands like sit and stay.

Laura stayed in my home and cared for my dog for 2-1/2 weeks while I was traveling. She took Dinah for long walks in the woods and they seemed to have a great time together. I was relaxed knowing that my dog and my home were in Laura’s responsible hands. She’s the best!

Laura was excellent. She did house visit and fed the boys. Played with them while she was there. Very respectful of our house.
