Safety, trust & environment

I treat others' pets as I would love and treat my own, recognizing that your family members are as important to you as mine is to me. Because of my previous profession in healthcare, I take my professionalism with me every day when I care for your pets in your home. I like to give my clients little extras as I'm able to. A handwritten note about something funny your pet did while in my care, a selfie, or even a copy of a quarterly newsletter I like to play with, containing pet care tips, and other topics. I take my pet sitting career as seriously as I took my previous healthcare career. I also take pets into my home on a limited basis, but do ask about that service in case I have openings. I have a six year old miniature Dachshund of my own, and she's well socialized. She loves having occasional playmates! She and I go for walks in the neighborhood, and occasional errands as weather allows.

Information Laura F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has special needs. What behaviors can I expect of your pet as the new sitter? What is your pet’s favorite play activities? Does your pet have any special medical needs or activity limitations?

A typical day

I love playing with your pets, a nice walk, or snuggles before I leave. I also love to stimulate pets with educational or enrichment activities. I will always be fully present with your pet, fitting in as many activities as I can within the time allotted.

Best Friend To Your Pets!

Pet care experience

I've taken care of my own and others' pets since I was 10 years old, for family, friends, and later trusted referrals. I've done sitting for breeding kennels, pet families, and for dog trainers. I've worked as a Veterinary Assistant, and I'm a retired RN. My professional experience has been extensive, and that can benefit you and your pets. I'm also a member of Pet Sitters International, where I often take advantage of continuing education on all different types of pets. Taking care of pets has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Give me a call, I'd love to chat about your pets, and how I can help you with your needs. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Warmest regards, Laura

Laura was amazing! I felt so guilty leaving my puppy for an extended period of time while I was away for work, but Laura made all that guilt and stress melt away. She took great care of Oggie and made sure he was getting his mental and physical stimulation. Laura also brought her sweet girl, Moxie which made Oggie so happy. I will definitely be booking with Laura again.

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.
