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.
Reviews
Laura is the best dog caretaker!! She is very easy to communicate with and always responds promptly. My dog loves her and always comes back from walks tired and happy. My dog can be a bit challenging to walk at times but I never have to worry when he is with Laura. Would highly recommend!
Nice long walk for Sunny and love how much you can see the happy grin on his face in the photo coming back.
Laura is incredibly kind, patient, thoughtful and easy to coordinate with. These qualities extend to handling of animals as well. She has looked after my dog on multiple occasions while I have been out of town and I always feel inspired to be an even better caretaker of my dog by how much affection and attention she gives him.

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 following 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.
