During overnight housesitting, I will maintain your pets normal routine at home. I may leave throughout the day for causal work (I look after my nephew a few days a week and do Instacart), social outings and time with family. I’m able to fit your pets schedule into these things, and always ensure pets receive love, snuggles, walkies and meals in line with their normal schedule. I do not accept bookings for constant-care, sorry!

I care in my clients home as I am staying with my sister or mom when not pet-sitting and they both have pets of their own.

Information Laura D. would like to know about your pet

Any behaviours or reactivity, anything about what if anything the dog needs to be left alone during the day, information about current training and habits you want me to continue to reinforce.

A typical day

I enjoy walks, dog parks if that is suitable for your dog, or runs! We will also play fetch or with toys, lounge, whatever the dog enjoys most!

Animal lover, keen to help!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a primary school teacher - originally from Portland, but I spent the last ten years living in Australia. I am home now and I am keen to help look after your animals and get my doggy fix! I have a King Charles Cavalier spaniel who will be with her other Mum - and I will miss her so! In addition to having very recently raised a puppy (she is now 2 years old), I have been a Wag dogwalker, a local petsitter both here at home and in Oz, and I even volunteered at the Humane Society as a teenager, so I have been walking other peoples dogs for a long time!

Laura got us out of a bind with a different sitter who cancelled a meet and greet three times. In a bind, we reached out to Laura and she quickly confirmed that she was available. We were not able to do a meet and greet but felt great with the communication back and forth throughout the stay. She left the place clean and our dog had been well snuggled.

Laura did an AMAZING job dog sitting for us. She was great with our older dog and sent loads of updates and pics while we were away. We would use her again in a heartbeat!

Laura was responsive and kept us in loop during the stay. We were thankful to have her staying with my babies in our house!!! ??
