Pet care experience

Home full-time-pets are my passion!

I work as a fully remote documentary researcher, which means I can spend all of my time at your home, lavishing your pet(s) with attention and love, exactly as if they were my own! I am capable on a professional level of administering meds, giving subcutaneous fluids, and handling social anxiety and behavioral issues for pups of all sizes and breeds, senior care, special care after surgeries, etc. The number one thing I hear from my clients is that they finally felt they could finally relax on vacation or business trips, knowing for SURE that their pets were in great hands! I am responsible and reliable and will leave your house as you left it, if not cleaner! Animals have always played a HUGE role in my life, and I have given my heart and soul into my animal work! I worked professionally as a petsitter for many years. I have also worked as an assistant vet tech, and I have volunteered for both animal shelters where my sole job was to walk and socialize potential adoptees, and also wildlife rescue centers doing behavior enrichment for animals from wolves to mountain lions! I also worked seasonally as a wildlife tech in Alaska, researching musk ox, brown bears, reindeer, etc, and lived for months at a wolf rescue center in CO. All I need is Wi-Fi, so your pet(s) and I can hang out all the time!

Laura was so through and attentive to Winston. He seemed to have a great time and she communicated with us really well via text and pics the whole time. We felt really comfortable with her! Thanks so much.

Laura did a wonderful job looking after our anxious pets, while keeping their anxious owners well informed with constant stream of communication and photos! Really made our trip without the pets very relaxing. Absolutely plan to book with her again!

Laura was great! She helped watch our dog and cat last minute. Our dog is extremely anxious and she was very patient with him. Lots of long walks and kindness when he was challenging. We are very grateful and would definitely use her again!

I would like to know about your dog's interactions with other dogs. Are there behavioral issues, like social anxiety? Does the dog have health issues, ie: take meds, or even are there certain areas of his/her body that are sensitive to being pet? Are strangers allowed to pet them? Do they have certain favorite toys that comfort them or favorite games? Are dog parks a safe option or are there favorite routes for walks?
These prices are for 1 dog.

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.
