Pet care experience

Over 10 years experience!

I have taken care of animals of several types since I adopted my first cat at the age of 4. He is now 17 years old, and I have also adopted a total of 4 dogs and 2 more cats. I have also been raising chickens for 12 years. I have been a pet sitter for family and friends for several years, including basic care, boarding, and bathing. I have several years of experience with the care of older animals and administering medications. I am currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to care for your animals. My hours are currently very flexible, and I am typically available every day from 7am to 8pm. I have a large fenced and partially shaded back yard. I have 1 dog and 3 cats who are friendly, but mostly keep to themselves. My flock of chickens have their own space and will not interact with your animals. I walk my dog every day at the thread or the nearby lake and hiking trails.

Everything went like clockwork with Laura. We did a meet and greet ahead of time. The cats seemed happy and content when I got home. She even got a picture of my elusive felines. Good job. Thank you.

Laura did a great job taking care of our 5 dogs. We went on vacation for 5 days and our dogs are not used to being without us, but she took care of them, played with them and loved then while we were gone. She's is dependable, responsible, and we will definitely hire her to care for our babies next time we go out of town!

Laura is very consistent and my dog loves to spend time with her! Used her several times now and will continue to request her services.

Laura is truly the best! She sent pictures and updates everyday. She truly calmed me while we were away. We can't trust our Koa with anyone due to her shelter past and would not be able to board her. Thankfully we found Laura and are forever thankful.
