Highlights
Pet care experience
Artist-Illustrator-Pet Lover!
I have been pet sitting neighborhood pets since I was 9 years old. I adore animals and find that life is drastically less enjoyable without them in my life, in some capacity. I have many years of experience walking, caring for, and boarding animals. I will love them like they're my own!
Cat care experience
Laura also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I prefer homes that have safety and security in mind- well-lit, good fencing, very little chance for anyone to pull a Houdini. It's important that collars, leashes, and lighting apparatus are in excellent condition.
Ratings and reviews
If we could leave 10 (out of 5) STARS, we would! We can't say enough good things about Laura. This was the first time in many years that we've had a sitter stay at our home with our dear pup - he has been staying at the sitter's home - but as he's getting quite up there in years we wanted to try less disruption in his routine and environment. Laura was incredibly loving and thorough with her care for our boy and our home. She was expertly communicative - sending news and photos daily during her weeklong stay. Her sincerity, kindness, and sense of responsibility put us at ease. When we returned, it was clear that our guy and our home were very well cared for. We have a very senior pup and it's harder and harder to entrust him in another person's care, especially with a new sitter relationship. Laura made the all the hard parts easy. We are so grateful for her warmth and expert care, and would hire her again in a heartbeat.
Laura is phenomenal! She truly loves animals and has such a wonderful energy. We left feeling SO good about her staying with our dog. The house was in immaculate condition and our dog was as happy as could be upon our return. She is a local gift to dog parents hoping to travel with ease.
Wowwww! Laura was fabulous. My girl loved her and my home was so clean when I got home. I loved all the updates while I was gone and how much she took tabs on as her own while I was away. Thank you, Laura!
Laura was amazing with our pups and took great care of our home. She regularly checked in to give updates and the girls really enjoyed their time with her. Highly recommended!
Laura is a fantastic pet sitter/walker! Our dog and cats are obsessed with her and I feel extremely comfortable when they are in her care. Laura is one of these people who loves animals deeply and you can tell she truly enjoys being in their company as much as they enjoy hers.
Lola is one of our dogs favorite people. Our dog, Quila, can be a bit of a handful on walks, and Lola knows just what to do and totally trust her with Quila’s safety.

Schedule
I adore early, early mornings, long walks, and especially runs. If you have a dog that needs more vigorous exercise, I would love to run them until they're totally tuckered out!
