Safety, trust & environment

I make sure safety is a priority. I don’t cage pets in unless instructed to do so. I like to make them feel comfortable and familiar in their surroundings even with a new face around.

Information Laura C. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any needs I can accommodate for, please let me know! I want them to feel safe and for you to be stress free

A typical day

We can take a walk and play a bit! If indoors, I love to use toys to stimulate their playful side. I also love to snuggle up for comfort and security in a new setting for them & for me, I just love snuggles.

here to help with your fur babies!

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, and different personalities. I enjoy spending time with them as much as I do with my own pets! I enjoy runs being outdoors and able to do any activity with your pet! I can take them on walks and play with them as well to let out some energy. I'll care for your pet as if they’re my own. I love to take photos of all the fur babies I get to meet and care for and capture little moments! I have reliable transportation. I have six years of experience as a pet sitter. I am comfortable with other pets as well outside of cats and dogs. I am available for all services except boarding in my home. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

Laura was great with our cat. Laura’s communication was great during the drop-ins checks we need for our cat. The pictures she sent really made me happy. My husband and I felt safe with Laura in our home and came back home to a happy cat☺️ I hope we can book her again.

Laura was amazing with our Bella. She provided great updates with pictures of their time together. We had a worry free trip with Laura pet sitting in our home. Loved the pics of them watching movies together.

Bella responded very well to Laura's handling. She took great care with our pup and provided timely feedback on her walk and their interaction. Great experience for us and Bella.
