Availability
I work full time, but finish work in the early afternoon. I do pet care part time several days a week, and prefer to have ongoing relationships with a few clients, to be best able to really get to know the pets and provide the most stellar, trusted care possible.

About Laura D.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will happily respect your home and rules, and will take care of your pets exactly as you wish. I can easily crate your dog, as my dog is crate trained and I have sat for other crate trained dogs on a regular basis. I can give medications as needed, and will follow your guidelines on that if that is part of your pet's needs. If I'm watching your cat, I will respect their boundaries. I will play with them and give attention as they will allow. I can also do plant care as needed on a visit.
Information Laura D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs that I can accommodate. I'm more than happy to set up a meet and greet to meet you and your pet(s) ahead of time, to learn any specifics you would like me to know about them and their care.
A typical day
I love to take dogs for walks in places that are full of fun smells for them to check out, safe and fun. I love to play with your dog(s) in your yard, playing fetch and even running around the yard with them if they like that! I walk your dog as much or as little as they need, after learning their needs from you. If you have playful cats or ferrets that I'm caring for, I am also very happy to play with them! I love all animals.

Experienced, Joyful Pet Care
Pet care experience
🐾 35+ years of experience! 🐾 Lots of cute photos sent to you! 🐾 Experience with many animals! Cats, dogs, fish, ferrets, turtles and tortoises, rabbits, goats, and horses! 🐾 Experience with and comfortable giving medications, oral and injected (insulin and subcutaneous fluids) 🐾 Experience with puppies and kittens, senior pets, and every age in between! 🐾 A long time pet owner myself, I know how important your animals are to you. ❤️ I've taken care of pets of many kinds for as long as I can remember! From our family pets, which included cats, dogs, birds, and fish, and over the years of pet sitting for family, friends, and referrals, I've taken care of animals that were young and old, no health troubles to medical needs to end of life care, and including cats, dogs, birds, tortoises and turtles, fish, ferrets, goats, rabbits, and a horse. I've also had my beloved senior dog, Philip, since he was a puppy, and was blessed to have my soul kitty, Lunita, from her stray kittenhood through her beautiful 20+ year life. I love all animals, and have been through taking care of the medical needs of my pets (Philip has IVDD, cancer history, and liver problems & Lunita had cataracts, arthritis, and kidney and skin problems) since they were a stray kitten and puppy, respectively. If you have high energy young pets, or elderly pets who need their rest, or anything in between, I'm your gal! I always give focused, mindful, loving care, no matter how simple or complex the animal's needs are.
