Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover Extraordinaire!
Born with a heart for animals and a commitment to integrity, I provide compassionate, personalized pet care throughout Tarpon Springs and surrounding communities. I believe our pets are family and they deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved even when we can’t be there with them. Through dedicated drop-in visits and dog walking services, I provide attentive care in the comfort of your pet’s own home, where familiar surroundings and established routines help them feel secure. Whether it’s mealtime, an enriching walk, playtime, litter maintenance, or simply some much needed companionship, every visit is thoughtfully tailored to your pet’s individual needs and personality. I prioritize their wellbeing by respecting established schedules, following your care instructions, and providing the attention and affection they deserve. As a devoted pet parent myself, I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust with your furry family members. My goal is to provide the same love, patience, and consideration I would want for my own. Regular updates and photos help keep you connected and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I welcome a complimentary meet and greet before our first booking! This gives us an opportunity to get acquainted, discuss your pet’s routines and preferences, and make sure we’re a wonderful fit. I look forward to meeting you and your precious companions!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing are my utmost priority. I provide attentive care in the familiar surroundings of your home, where your pets can maintain their established routines and enjoy the security of their own environment. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, household access, and any special considerations your pet may require. During walks and outdoor activities, I prioritize safe handling, appropriate supervision, and your pet’s individual comfort and physical abilities. I treat every home with the same respect and consideration I would expect for my own, ensuring doors and gates are secured, care areas are kept tidy, and your instructions are followed. Regular updates and photos keep you informed and connected, providing peace of mind while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Laura K. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Laura is absolutely amazing!! I am so grateful for her! Her house was clean and cozy. She has a great fenced in yard and even a covered screened-in patio! She was very sweet and I could tell she cared for my little guys like her own. She was extremely dependable, caring, and communicative. And that is exactly what someone needs when they're trusting a stranger with their fur children. She put me right at ease and I felt they were happy and safe. The regular updates were next level!! :) One of my guys needed a little more attention due to a medical situation, and she was right on that, happily receiving feedback and following everything to a T. I could not recommend a sitter more!! Thank you again so much 💕💕💕
I have known Laura for over 20 yrs now and the reason we became so close was our shared love for pets and Jesus. She has always tried to help when we would see a stray cat or even a possum. All her life she has had cats and dogs. She loves animals! I have always trusted her to watch my pets when we go out of town. You know she will treat them like her own. I highly recommend her for all your pet needs!

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to offer flexible scheduling and personalized attention to each furry friend in my care. I provide drop-in visits and dog walking services throughout the week, with availability for morning, afternoon, and evening appointments. Whether your pet needs a midday potty break, mealtime companionship, a refreshing walk, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll work with you to establish a schedule that supports their individual needs. I believe consistency is especially important for our pets, so I make every effort to maintain their familiar routines and provide dependable, attentive care.

- Every pet is unique and I’d love to learn what makes yours special! Before our first visit, please share any important information regarding their routines, feeding instructions, medications, medical conditions, allergies, behavioral considerations, or special needs. I’d also appreciate knowing about their favorite activities, preferred treats, comfort items, and anything that may cause anxiety or discomfort. For dogs, please let me know about leash manners, interactions with other animals and any known triggers during walks. For cats, I’d love to know their preferred hiding spots, favorite toys, and whether they enjoy affection or prefer companionship from a respectful distance. I recommend a complimentary meet and greet before our first booking so we can discuss your expectations, review care instructions, and ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and wellbeing are my top priorities and I promise to respect your wishes and provide the individualized care they deserve.
