Pet care experience

Your cat lady in Carney!

Hi there! I've been pet-sitting cats, dogs, and birds since I was in high school, but cats are my specialty. I love animals and it's always my goal to make them as comfortable and at-home as possible when caring for them. I am available for drop-in visits and dog walks. I am very familiar with doing drop-in visits for cats and dogs as I have been doing it since I was a teenager! I also regularly walk dogs for a local rescue group, so I am constantly interacting with dogs who have a wide range of personalities. In addition to feedings (as needed), I can give your pet lots of love, attention, and playtime during these visits so that they don't get lonely or bored. For my safety and the safety of your pets, I require a meet and greet with all new dog clients prior to the first visit. I prefer to do a meet and greet with cat clients as well but in certain situations I do not require it. This means that I am unable to accept last minute requests (day of or day before) from new clients. I am also currently not accepting weekly recurring drop-in or walk requests (these are the type of requests that repeat on the same day of the week for several weeks) because, due to the inconsistent nature of my full-time work schedule, I cannot guarantee my availability week to week.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand that your home is a safe place for both you and your pet. I will respect any boundaries you may have regarding what areas of your home I or your pet are allowed. I always strive to leave your house as clean or cleaner than I found it during drop-ins!

Laura is our go-to cat sitter whenever we travel, and we trust her completely. During our longest trip yet, she saved the day when the upstairs AC broke by quickly moving his food, water, and litter to a cooler floor. She showered our cat with love and attention, and we couldn't recommend her more!

Laura C. has been my go to pet sitter for a few years, and my pets are obsessed with her! Her communication while you're away is top notch, and the daily check ins give such incredible peace of mind. Knowing she’s taking care of them lets me actually enjoy being out of town without a single worry.

We always use Laura to watch our cats while we are away. She always lets me know how they are doing and somehow always gets the best pictures. We can’t recommend Laura enough

Schedule

I work a full-time job outside of Rover that can sometimes have varying hours, but I try my best to work with clients to find drop-in times that work for both of us! I very much appreciate it when clients have flexible times for their drop-ins!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Laura can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Please let me know ahead of time if your pet has any particular fears/dislikes so that I can do my best to avoid them. Any information about a pet’s personality or behavioral tendencies is always helpful to have and makes for a better experience for both of us!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
