Caring for animals is my passion!

Pet care experience

I have raised 5 Shetland Sheepdogs (shelties) who provided me with love and companionship for a span of 20 years. During this time, I provided pet sitting services to several of the neighbors and was the main point of contact for nearby dog rescues. I now have 2 very playful and energetic huskies who very much enjoyed our recent snow. They love walking, hiking, and playing together. They are also friends with all of the neighbor pups and enjoy having them sleep over. Special needs: In addition to 20 years of experience pet sitting a variety of animals, I am skilled in administering subcutaneous fluids, giving injections, syringe feeding, and giving oral medications.

Laura did an incredible job with my furry crew. The cats really took to her, and the dogs loved her. They all seemed so happy and content around her. She also treated my home with so much respect. Will absolutely recommend her to anyone, and will hire 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.
