Pet care experience

*Located in Burlington’s New North End. Burlington pets get 20% discount! Please contact for pricing based on location. Rates will increase based on mileage outside of Burlington. Dog lover, Cat Mom. Big, small, stubborn, loud, quiet, shy, young, old, hyper, chill, strolling, running, all animals deserve to be loved. Grew up in suburbs near trails with dogs on and off leash. Flexible schedule. I have a large car to bring 1 or multiple dogs out for adventures. With permission, I may spoil them. Worked as a vet tech assistant for 3 years. Rasied many dogs from puppies and am familiar with positive reinforcement training, crate training, and clicker training. Experienced with dogs that are people and/or dog shy and know how to handle the situation. I do not believe in such a thing as naturally aggressive dogs. Everyone has their own personality and experiences, so do animals.

Laura was terrific with Brody. She was very communicative, sent photos and made both Brody and me feel at ease. Thanks, Laura!

Laura was extremely timely, courteous, and professional while looking after my pup! She has a love for animals, and it shows. I would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of someone to help watch or walk their dogs or cats!

Laura is a very responsible, life long dog lover. She has cared for many types of dogs including Australian shepherd, Labrador retriever and an extra large German shepherd. She recognized a neighbor‘a dog had cataracts and assisted the owner in getting care for the dog. It’s a lucky dog to have Laura in their life

Laura absolutely loves animals and especially dogs. She has grown up with two large dogs. Laura worked as an assistant at a local Veterinarian and has good hands-on common sense about animal care and issues. She has a delightful personality and would make a great companion for your dog.

I am available to care for your dog or cat in your home and can stay for extended periods within a 1-hour driving distance of Burlington. I love being active so am happy to take them hiking, running, or out for a gentle walk. I am unable to care for dogs in my home but can care for cats, per my lease agreement. My cat, Indy, is great with all the cats he's met but I can separate them in several rooms if needed. I live in a 2-floor condo in the New North End with windows that look out to squirrels, birds, deer, raccoons, and foxes.

Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet

A typical day

Trail hiking and running, belly rubs, playtime with toys and balls, wrestling, going for drives, and treat and clicker training. Love teaching new tricks! What's your baby's favorite thing? Anything you'd like them to learn?
