Pet care experience

Every animal deserves quality care!

I have several years of experience caring for exotic and domestic wildlife, and over a decade providing quality care for cats and dogs. I am currently available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays! If you are a NEW client wanting to book an overnight stay please contact me at least three days ahead of the booking so we have time to discuss the conditions of the stay. I do not accept last minute requests for house sittings. I have several years of experience house sitting for puppies/kittens, adult, and elderly dogs/cats. I am also familiar with the preparation of specialized diets, and administering certain medications (oral, or injection) if needed. I am happy to stay overnight for extended lengths of time to care for pets in their home. If there are any other furry friends in the household I would be happy to provide care for them as well! I have experience caring for a wide range of animals and would be happy to provide for other household pets such as: guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, rabbits, and rodents. I believe that every animal, regardless of size or age, deserves the best care possible. Your pet's happiness is my biggest priority!

Safety, trust & environment

Laura was so, so wonderful with our elderly dog! She was loving and kind to our little one and took such great care of our home as well, it was even better than we left it! She communicated with us regularly and sent pics while we were gone. We absolutely recommend Laura and hope to book with her again!

Laura has watched our house and pets a couple of times now and is nothing short of amazing. She's communicative, dilligent with medications and care instructions, and always leaves the house spotless. Her pricing is more than fair and most importantly our pets are comfortable and happy while we are away.

This is the second time using Laura and she was just as wonderful as the first. She made drop in visits this booking and we were just as pleased as when she stayed overnight. We love that our very shy and cautious guy has already taken to trusting Laura, that is enough for us to know she is amazing. Laura sent us pictures on every and always responded very quickly to our texts. We love Laura, but more importantly our kitties love Laura.

Laura was awesome. All 3 of our cats took to her quickly, even our very shy boy, Shadow. We have a bit of a high maintenance crew of kitties and Laura managed them wonderfully while also taking care of the responsibilities around the house. I will definitely be using her again and recommend her for anyone needing a house and pet sitter.

Schedule

I currently work part-time at a rescue where I care for cats and dogs, helping them find their forever homes! My schedule ranges from 3-4 days a week with either 5 or 8 hour shifts. Please keep this in mind when booking as there are some days when I will have to be away for 8+ hours for work.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Laura can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
If your dog needs regular exercise, please let me know in advance about their activity schedule so that I can be consistent with their expectations. Also, for larger breeds it is imperative that they are well-trained and do not leash pull as I am not a large human and would like to avoid any mishaps. If you have multiple dogs that need to be walked, please provide details on how this is accomplished and whether they can be walked separately.
These prices are for 1 dog.

Prices include all fees.

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.
