Happy pet, Happy life

Pet care experience

Anyone that has an animal will know that they’re happiness is ours and vise versa. You feel better knowing that they are in a safe and loving environment, imitating they’re home as much as possible. I work hard to make sure that your animal feels as loved with me as it would with you. While never professionally, I have taken care of cats and dogs for years. All ranging from 6 months-15 years old. I’ve taken care of very old animals that require much care. I have no problem getting dirty to make sure that the animal feels taken care of. I want to sit with and get to know owners as well as the animals to make both feel as comfortable as possible. Care is my passion. I aspire to be a mid-wife, but until then I’d like to put joy into people’s lives by taking care of their furry babies.

Laura is a brilliant cat sitter. She took great care of our 2 indoor cats. She sent us photo and video updates every visit and our two cats were very taken with her (there was lots of pictures of our boy cat on her lap for snuggles). She also managed to win our girl over, which is no easy feat, but Laura's patient and delicate approach worked wonders.Laura also carefully administered their meds each meal. We are very pleased to have met Laura , she is extremely reliable, professional and we are looking forward to working with her again.

Laura is incredible! She took care of my two, special-needs cats when my boyfriend and i were away. The cats loved her so much and i felt comfortable knowing they were getting the Laura treatment :) i highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone responsible and capable to take care of their pets! Will definitely book her again!

Because I have two dogs of my own, my whole world revolves around pet care. There are very few places where my dogs don’t join me.
