Laura and her family were absolutely amazing! Midway through our booking, we experienced a medical emergency and needed to extend the sitting unexpectedly. Not only did they accommodate us without hesitation, but they stayed in constant communication and took such wonderful care of Athena throughout. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring and flexible sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again!

Laura was easy to work with and was very patient with our energetic terrier. She kept in touch while we were away to let us know that everything was going well, and she frequently sent us pictures and videos. We will definitely hire her again next time we are away.

Laura G. is amazing with all animals. I spent the last 3 years helping her take care of 3 feral cats. She checks in on them and feeds them 7 days a week. She is a pet mom to 3 amazing fur babies who get the best care possible from her. She rescued my cat milo from the "wild" and took care of him for 18 months while he adjusted to being around people. He went from living in one room hiding when he was fed and litter box was cleaned to slowly trusting her and seeking her out till he became her shadow. He was estimated to be about 12 years old. He now lives with me and my children and his cat "brother". He is the epitome of a family cat. Gentle and loving and HAPPY. Laura will be a positive addition to the care of any fur baby.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in yard if your dog is residing in my home. I will care for your pet as if they are my own and for me, my pets are my kids. I will provide safe, comforting, attentive care for your pet and respect your space when in your home. I will maintain a clean environment in your home and in mine. For basic walks or drop in visits, I will leave the home how I found it or better.

Pets

A typical day

I feel that it is important to exercise a pets mind. Most dogs do better when they are exercised their mind, playing games, going for long walks etc. Some dogs are just lazy couch potatoes and will get many belly rubs and cuddles and walks more conducive to their energy level. For cats, it is important to connect with them through play, affection and/or treat time.

I need to know about your pets personality type, their expected behavior, what they like and dislike, as well as if they get along with cats, dogs and kids. This is all very important so that I can ensure their safety as well as others safety when I am caring for your pet. I like to know what to potentially expect and how to read them. I will get to know them in time but its very important to know if they are leash reactive, or dog reactive or show signs of guarding before meeting them for the first time. I want to win them over so knowing their likes and dislikes can come in handy as well.
