Next best care to you being there

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs for over 25 years, my own and others. Rescue puppies, adults, and seniors, and cared for them all through hospice care through end of life. I’m comfortable giving medication and providing special diets. I patiently worked with a very skittish rescue puppy, who became confident and well trained. I saw her through two cancer scares and she’s still with me as we face a third and final round. 2021 through 2022 I saw my Staffordshire terrier through a terminal brain tumor as she greeted each day - neighbors even commented on how patient I was with her slow walks, bringing a wagon along in case she tired and needed a ride home, but her joy at each day was the best and worth it all. I have pet sat for my family and friends, sometimes having as many as four dogs in my home at a time. I love and have had cats, too but dogs are my passion.

Laura has watched our two dogs, Bella and Zoe, quite a few times and I can’t imagine having anyone else care for them! I highly recommend Laura to care for your pets!

We Love Laura and are so grateful. She just knew our Rosie so well even before she cared for her. XO

Laura was wonderful with my dog Charlie. Such a comfort to be able to trust someone to care for him.

I am now working from home with a fairly flexible schedule. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy being with them so taking time away from my computer to care for and get outside and walk dogs is a perfect fit.
