Pet care experience
I grew up with parents in the medical field and I took that interest and turned it towards animals. Up until a few years ago I was on the track to becoming a vet. I interned at clinics, shelters, and took part in many training sessions. Now I'm an actress/writer and while I have a busy schedule, it's flexible day in and day out. I live with a cat, but there's nothing like a pooch; sweet, cranky, or otherwise. I raised a brilliant and endearing pointer and a crotchety little papillon before NYC apartment living called me away. I know how to teach commands--but most importantly I know how to get a pulling dog to walk nicely and attentively on a leash. I love a good game of tug-of-war, never get tired of fetch, and am good at finding the spots that need to be scratched most. I love dogs. Let me love yours!
Reviews
Laura has been walking my pup for a few months now and I couldn’t be happier! She is flexible and very quick to respond, which with my chaotic schedule is amazing. She is also great with my sometimes dog-reactive dog and knows how to distract her in iffy situations, and she always gives a thorough report on her walks. She’s patient and lets the dog set the pace. No negatives!!
Very happy with Laura. Gave my Sasha a nice long walk and gave me a thorough report with several pictures. Will definitely be using her again.
As always Laura is fantastic! Prompt, super responsive and flexible as well. Love her commentary and pictures of my dog and I look forward to them every walk! Can’t recommend Laura enough.
Laura is so great with animals and very communicative, prompt and so friendly! Would recommend her to anyone. My dog adores her!!
