Stay-at-Home Mom Who Loves Animals

Pet care experience

I have many years of boarding dogs, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I have boarded a puppy under a year. I also have experience with cats, lizards, snakes, hamsters, and exotic pets such as chameleons. I also have cared for dogs recovering from surgery. I have three dogs of my own. Two frenchies and a pitbull. I am use to a variety of breeds. I also have a senior cat. I love animals and have watched a variety of different animals. When I am animal sitting I realize the physical and emotional needs of the animals and how they depend on me. I know it can be stressful for both the animals and owners. I realize it is stressful to leave your furry love ones at home. As a pet sitter, it is my responsibility of being reliable. I will make sure to show at agreed times. I will follow a care plan that provides total care, and minimal change to daily routine. I will keep the environment clean and leave it as I found it. Lastly, I will ensure that the house is locked and secure. I believe these key factors are essential in a successful experience.

Laura has been great with Maverick. He’s a big dog who is really strong and she has handled him so well. He looks forward to his walks with her each week and gets so excited when he sees her. She’s a huge help since I’m a new mom and can’t walk the pup with the baby. Absolutely recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

I follow the routine that I ask for in advance. Animals do better if a routine is kept. It gives them a sense of security. I also love to shower them with love and attention. I will provide for their physical need as well as the emotional well-being. I am also familiar with dogs recovering from surgery or medicine needs.

Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their daily routine. What is their everyday like? Also, are they on any medications? How do you administer any medication? Is there any special care or injuries? What food do they like to eat? How much? What are their meal times? Are they allowed to have treats? What are their favorite toys and activities? Where are their favorite spots where they like to go? Any behaviors I have to look out for?

A typical day

I first try to follow their daily routine. I will let them out/ clean litter box, then provide their nutritional needs (food, water, medicine). I will provide forms of exercise/ mental stimulation ( fetch, walks, cat toys), and give undivided attention and affection.
