Information Laura K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or wants and I will do my best to accommodate them. Also let me know if you have a preferred form of communication. I will normally communicate through messages but happy to speak over the phone as well.

A typical day

A typical day will depend on which friend I'm hanging out with as I tailor my visit based on what the pet enjoys. Normally there will be a mix of play time to help stimulate them both mentally and physically as well as cuddle or relax time so they can feel as much love as possible while their family is away.

Pet care experience

I'll love them like their my own. I'm new to Rover but I've helped friends, family and neighbors care for their fur babies for the last 30 years or so. I grew up with Old English sheepdog but love all animals. My friends joke that I can't go anywhere without meeting a new dog friend. I currently have a senior dog with an autoimmune disease so I'm comfortable with providing special needs care. I'm great with all types of dogs and love meeting new friends. I'm happy to help with all care needs including walking, feeding, playing, administrating medicine, and cuddle time. I can't wait to meet my new best friend!

Laura K. is the best! My cats and I are repeat customers, I would not imagine trusting anyone else with my kitties. My cats were happy when I arrived home, their spaces were clean. Laura sent pictures of play and cuddles; she truly is a gem.

Laura is the best! I had to go away for work two weeks after relocating to VA and one week after moving into an apartment; not only did I not have enough time to adjust, my kitties did not either. Leaving them home was difficult enough because they are certified therapy animals and I have severe anxiety, the thought of leaving them with someone I did not know was worse. They had already endured the relocation, staying in the hotel and then moving into the apartment where I had barely begun to unpack. Laura came for the "meet and greet" and all fell into place. My kitties loved her instantly and I was immediately at ease. Laura sent updates and pictures every visit. When I arrived home, my kitties were calm, everything pertaining to kitty care was immaculate. I will not hesitate to call on Laura again.
