Pet care experience

Here for you & your furry family!

Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family!

Laura is the best with our two goldendoodles. They think of her as their alpha sister. She walks them. She spends time with them. She takes care of them with all of their medical needs and they absolutely adore her. She could be gone a year and when she comes to be with them, they instantly go nuts because they’re so happy to see her. she’s our number one choice with our boys.

Schedule

If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss.

Safety, trust & environment

I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!

A typical day

Based on my discussions with you, we'll build a plan to help your pet feel the least amount of stress from your absence. Routine and activity can be important! That said, I'm also flexible and can offer them the energy/adventure you recommend.
