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.

Information Laura J. would like to know about your pet
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.
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.

Reviews
We had an amazing experience with our Laura ! This was the first time we had ever left our dog, with someone else, and he was understandably very anxious. She went above and beyond to make him feel calm, safe, and comfortable throughout his stay. She paid close attention to his food habits, followed his regular sleeping schedule, and genuinely cared about making the transition as stress-free as possible for him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She is kind, patient, and truly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Cookie!
Laura was great with my very reactive pup
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.
