Highlights
Pet care experience
Yard, Walks, & Squirrel Watching!
The best way to gain experience is by living it! I've been taking care of & living with dogs for many years, from my four-legged college roommate Cleo, to adopting my own dog, Curry, & being the fun aunt for my friend groups puppies & dogs, I've experienced dogs in every stage of their life & mine. I adapt my care and approach to each dogs needs & lifestyle.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Laura took great care of our doodle while we were in town for a couple of days. She kept us updated, played with him and walked him. He was excited to see her. We would highly recommend Laura when you’re in Austin!
Laura has been absolutely incredible. She stepped in for a last-minute drop-in when I really needed help with my Alaskan Malamute, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She is extremely punctual, reliable, and consistently goes above and beyond. It’s clear she genuinely cares — she takes extra time and gives my dog so much attention and care. Knowing my Malamute is in such good hands gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and truly dedicated to animals.
I wholeheartedly recommend Laura Kaupe as a pet sitter and walker. She is always punctual, respectful of our routines and instructions and is very communicative when needed. What sets Laura Kaupe apart in my opinion is how trustworthy and genuinely caring she is with my pet. I always have peace of mind and ease knowing my dog is safe, happy and well care for when she is in Laura’s hands. You can tell Laura has a natural way with animals. She is patient, loving and attentive and my pup absolutely adores her and is always happy and excited to see her.

Schedule
Cozy House with a Yard Made for Zoomies & Squirrel Surveillance!! 🐶🐾☀️🐿️ I work remotely, therefore I have the flexibility & attention to take care for & entertain your pup! I live in a house with a fenced yard, allowing your dog to enjoy the outdoors unleashed & get some play time or sunbathe. I take multiple walks throughout the day, so rest assured we'll all get our steps in & get those Strava kudos. I am currently training for the Austin marathon, so if your dog likes to run, I'm happy to bring them along for whatever distance you're comfortable with! Inside, I have plenty of space & dog beds for your pup to relax. I also have great windows for your pup to get some prime time squirrel & people watching throughout the day. I have an 11 year old German Shepherd, Curry. She is a gentle old lady & enjoys the company of other dogs. She has no history of aggression with other dogs of any size. Happy to have our pups be introduced prior to their stay if there are any hesitancies.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly home with a secure yard for supervised outdoor time, potty breaks, and play. I closely follow owners’ instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, and routines so dogs feel at ease and cared for. I keep a clean home, am mindful of doors and gates, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I have multiple dog beds & allow dogs to sleep wherever they choose, though I have an extra guest bedroom available should your dog require to sleep in a separate space in a crate. I work from home, but should I need to run a few errands or get a run in, please let me know what your dogs home alone behavior is & any special instructions to make them feel comfortable.
