Reliable, responsible animal lover & artist

Pet care experience

I absolutely love working with animals and have been responsible for many of my friends pets while they have been away. I have experience with nervous dogs or dogs with special requirements I currently work from my home studio so have plenty of time for walkies, cuddles and toilet breaks. I am fully flexible around your pets needs as I know how important routines and structure can be. We will go for 2-3 walks per day (length depending on size and energy levels) - walks can be on lead / off lead depending on your pup. When staying with us your pup will become part of the family. My priority will be to keep them safe & happy and ensure they have the best home from home holiday possible. As a dog owner myself I understand the importance of a dog feeling happy and settled in their environment so it’s super important for me for them to feel at home. My home is very calm and quiet (no children / housemates etc) so your pup will have the space to relax. We will keep to your schedules and routines to reduce stress for them and keep any sleeping arrangements etc the same. My enclosed garden will provide a safe play area for your pup to play along with my two dogs.

My dog bailey absolutely loves staying with Laura! If I mention Laura's name he runs to the window and waits for her to come. He cries with happiness when he sees her it's so adorable. Laura is lovely, she's a true animal lover! She sends regular updates and keeps my mind at ease that bailey is safe and having fun.

Laura was absolutely amazing! She stepped in at super short notice to take my beloved 2 yr old pup Benji when I had to go into hospital unexpectedly and did everything she could to make it easier for both me and Benji! I got numerous pics each day putting my mind at rest (and Benji looked like he was having a whale of a time!) and she sent little updates every day too. The fact she’s evidently a loving dog owner too I think made her extra understanding of the stress of leaving my fur-baby at short notice! She was really flexible when my discharge date changed several times and Benji eventually came home happy, calm and very pleased to be back but not stressed at all. I cannot thank her enough for having Benji and will definitely use her for boarding again - I would recommend her very highly.

Laura was fab. She looked after our Chow Chow Simba who can be quite nervous and reactive. She was great with him and sent updates to keep my mind at peace throughout the day. Will definitely use again and would recommend to anyone.

Laura really cared about my dog and ensured he was settled before leaving him. She has a lovely clean home with 2 adored dogs of her own. She kept me updated of his time with here and he seemed very comfortable with her when it was time to pick him up. I won't hesitate to use Laura again.
