Dogs and Cats are my life!

Pet care experience

After becoming the owner of a wiener dog, I understood the stress and agony over leaving your pet alone or with strangers! I found a sitter on Rover who cared for my pets,not just for a few bucks, but because she was an animal lover and would spend more time than I paid for and bring little toys just because she loved them. I always thought if I was ever in the position to do that for other families, I would! I’m home full-time and can provide all the love and comfort/ exercise and play your pet needs when you can’t be there! I love interacting with other dogs and cats and being able to give them love and attention when their owners have to leave them alone! I grew up with dogs and cats and eventually got my own.Throughout school and grad school, I nannied for families with dogs I cared for and loved as my own! I know my dog gets super stressed when I am away so I go above and beyond to make sure your dog or cat feels as comforted and loved as possible. That looks different for every dog and I’m willing to take the time to figure that out. Also, my little weiner dog has been pretty secluded since Covid and I’m looking for the opportunity to socialize him with other pets. He’s friendly and shy and I think he would be happier with more interaction!! **IF I COULD MEET PLAYMATES FOR HIM, IT WOULD BE MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL, AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE SERVICES FOR LITTLE TO NO COST**

I have know Laura personally for over 3 years and in that time her love for animals continually comes through. Laura has a patient and caring personality and is someone who will work tirelessly to build trust with the dogs she is caring for, as well with the clients themselves. She will be an excellent communicator with each owner and will go above and beyond to understand each dogs individual and unique needs. I wholeheartedly trust Laura to care for my dog Rolo and I would not hesitate to recommend her as a dog walker/caregiver/sitter.

Laura stayed with my cat while I was on my honeymoon. It was the longest I was ever away from him, so she sent me lots of updates and pictures. Laura was great at spoiling him and keeping him company when I was away. My cat loves spending time with her and is so happy to see her when she visits.

I cannot recommend Laura enough! She is the most caring and attentive sitter I’ve ever had. She has taken such good care of my little fur baby, Bernice. She’s friendly and always keeps me updated. And Bernice loves her too - always excited for a visit from Laura :). I never have to worry when she’s in Laura’s care because she treats her like her own pet. You can’t go wrong leaving your pets in her care.

Laura has taken care of my cat and was wonderful with her. Graycie doesn’t like many people but warmed up to Laura right away. She has a kind way about her that animals respond too. I’ve met her dog and he is a sweetheart. She is a great dog mom!

If your pet is very friendly with my dog, I’d love to care for them in my home. I have outdoor fields, trails and parks in the back yard so keeping dogs happy and busy is easy. I could pet sit in your home, but only if I could bring my wiener dog as he expects full time pampering and attention!

Information Laura K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your pet likes and dislikes ahead of time so I can best care for them. Let me know if they have any special needs I need to be aware of to keep them safe and happy! My pets have always had weird quirks, so let me know yours!!

A typical day

I like to keep dogs entertained by creating fun activities for them during the day. I have a field in the back yard along with walking trails and parks. They can run around and play games in the field or I can set up an obstacle course for them to run and jump through. Inside, I’m a fan of boredom busters, puzzles, and windows for them to look out. I can take them outside as much or as little as you’d like.
