Caring & communicative

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my entire life. They've all had unique personalities and traits. This has taught me how unique animals can be! They're ability to love and show affection is why I try my best to be attentive and caring. I'm working from home. I thought I should take advantage of this time and combine it with my love for pets. I also miss my own dogs that are in Florida. I like to see animals play and be happy. I hope to work past their fears, if any, to have carefree and happy pets. I have a fenced yard. Built specifically for my dogs who love to run around. They're currently in Florida and I greatly miss them while in Michigan. I also have cameras indoors and out doors to make sure they're always supervised. Pets will stay inside (unless specified to be an outdoor dog), but in the winter they will be inside. I will not crate them unless asked to. I will generally expect them to walk around with comfort and sleep in a cozy pet bed. I generally will not allow pets on furniture, but honestly I'm not very strick on this. I love puppies so I have no problem helping potty train. I'm a very clean person and expect your pets to be reasonably clean and up to date with shots and flee/tick medication. I will send as many pictures and videos as you like over your pets stay. Because I know nothing calms our minds on a vacation like seeing our pets happy and safe.

Laura was so wonderful with our pups! She updated us almost daily with pictures and how they were doing. It was a cold week, so she bought them each a holiday sweater so they would stay warm on their walks. :) They had a big bed and room all to themselves, which they loved! We will definitely use Laura again! We highly recommend her as a pet sitter!

Laura took such good care of our beloved dog. She sent pictures and video updates. Great communicator, which put us at ease. She walked him a lot and took him places so he wasn’t alone much!

I was nervous to use Rover for the first time but Laura was awesome with my pup. She was so sweet and sent updates and pictures throughout the day! I would definitely book with her again!

Laura was an amazing sitter! Kind, gentle and very accommodating. We received updates and photos throughout the week, which made us feel at ease to be away from our furry buddy.

Information Laura J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any specific information that's important while caring for your pet. If they have allergies, medical needs, behavior traits, or tendencies I should be aware of.

A typical day

Pets would be welcome into the home and treated as my own. I'd play with them or let them rest. I'd let them take their time and choose how they wise to spend their time. They car run around in the yard or play indoors. We can go for walks around the area and play fetch.
