About Laura H.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I only provide care for pets in their own homes and walk dogs. I have worked with many a sickly foster animal and elderly pets, so I am very comfortable administrating medication, including insulin injections and the like.
Information Laura H. would like to know about your pet
When we first meet, I look forward to learning all about your pets and their particular preferences. How do they like to interact? What are their routines? How do they like to play? How do they like to be comforted and rewarded? What are their triggers? What mischief do they like to get up to? If there are particular skills and behaviours you are working on with your pet, let me know and I will be sure to reinforce that while they are in my care.
A typical day
It's important to me that your pets feel as comfortable as possible while in my care, and that means sticking to any existing routines that you've established with them! Depending on their exercise needs, I'll take dogs on multiple walks or runs throughout the day. We'll also spend plenty of time playing, working on tricks and puzzles and getting in some cuddles.

Ready to tire out your pup
Pet care experience
I've walked and cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I've got a calm, patient, gentle demeanor and am comfortable with everything from taking your pup (or pups!) on walks, runs, and hikes, to administrating medication and giving injections. I'm also open to looking after your non-canine or feline friends: four-legged, scaled, feathered or otherwise! I have experience with fish, guinea pigs and hamsters. For creatures that are new to me, I will gladly learn the ins and outs of their care needs and follow your instructions to a T. Shoot me a message and we can discuss in detail.
Cat care experience
Laura also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Laura was very friendly and had great communication with Oso’s care. We appreciated her flexibility and kindness
Laura was great with Bo - clearly comfortable with dogs, took time to listen to his little walk nuances to make sure he got some got exercise and sniffing. He was happy for the rest of the day! Recommend!
Laura is super responsive, and takes great care of our Malinois!
Laura stopped by to take Rafa for a walk today. He came back happy and tired! We will most certainly call on Laura in the future!
