Pet care experience

Experienced, Responsible Caretaker

Hi there! My name is Laura, and I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. With over 15 years of experience in pet care, I know firsthand how pets truly become members of the family. I started caring for dogs and cats as a child, growing up with both big and small breeds and helping families with pets of all kinds. Whether it's playful pups or older dogs, I bring patience, kindness, and reliable care to every visit. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my versatile experience as a foster volunteer and genuine love for each animal I meet. I'm skilled in: -Puppy training and crate training -Administering medication and adhering to special feeding routines -Understanding and responding to different pet personalities and needs -Providing loving, stress-free attention that keeps your pet feeling comfortable and safe

My dogs felt very comfortable with Laura so quickly. I was able to enjoy my time away from home with complete peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for.

Our boys love Laura, and so do we! We had a very busy trip to NYC over a holiday weekend, and Laura was fantastic once again. She kept us updated with pictures and I love seeing my boys doing their normal things while we’re away. I can tell she really loves spending time with them. And our house was spotless when we came home. We will continue to have Laura take care of our pups!

Laura was fantastic! I never worried for one minute about my boys while we were on vacation. She was great communicating about how each day went, sent pictures, and offered to do several things around the house. In her pictures, our boys were doing the same things they do when we’re home, so I know they had the best time with Laura. We will most definitely use Laura again!

A typical day

To provide the best care possible, I like to know your pet's daily routine, temperament/behavior, any medical needs, favorite activities, triggers (storms, fireworks, etc.), or other special care instructions. Having this information helps me create a safe, happy, and customized experience for your pet, so they feel right at home while under my care!
