Laura Loves Dogs

Pet care experience

*Prices are "per dog/cat," but I offer a steep discount for multiple pets! I have almost 30 years of 5-star rated pet care experience, and nearly 75 repeat clients, both inside and outside of Rover :-). Hi! My name is Laura and I've been a dog and pet lover my whole life. I've owned and loved my own miniature Schnoodle for 15 years (Sniffy, who sadly passed away about 4 years ago), and I also grew up with several dogs. We have a new pup now, another Schnoodle 🐾. He is now almost 3 years old. I did pet sitting and dog walking on and off on my own for about 15 years, and was also a professional dog walker and pet sitter for 2 years in WI. I now have about 30 years of pet care experience total. I used to watch dogs in my own home (for 8 years), but where we are located now I can’t do that anymore because my new pup doesn’t mix too well with other dogs, lol - only because he loves them too much and bugs them! 😊 As a pastor's wife and homeschooling mom, I have a busy but pretty flexible schedule, so will do my best to work with your timing and needs. My husband and children all love dogs, have often helped care for dogs I watch (of course only if the pet owner is OK with that), so they are very good with pets as well. I can take your dog on a walk or play catch in your backyard when I come to visit. I am comfortable and experienced in administering many medications as well - both oral and some injections. I am also available to come to your house for overnight stays! And if you have multiple pets that I am caring for at your home, there will be a good discount for those additional pets. I am very honest, conscientious, kind, thorough, a good communicator, and will keep you updated and send you photos as much as you desire! However you choose to have me care for your pet(s), know that it will be in good hands and will be cared for and loved just as if it were my own! ♥️ When I am in your home for a visit, dog walk, or housesitting, I will keep your home neat and clean and will abide by all your rules and wishes. I am very responsible, and will show up within the time parameters we have discussed and do all the things you’ve asked me to do. Again, I will care for and love your dog or cat as if they’re my own pets on my visits, doing all I can to make them as comfortable and happy as possible while you are away.

Laura was wonderful! We’ve used her for overnight care as well as drop ins. My pups love her, and we do too! She has great communication and always tries her best to accommodate.

This is the first time that we've used Rover. Laura stayed at our house and watched our needy 15 year old lab for 8 1/2 hours. She did a fantastic job dealing with his separation anxiety and getting him in and out for potty breaks. Laura's 12 year old son Luke (a fine young man) came to assist and was very appreciative for the Massey's pizza for lunch. Laura is a very nice person and has to be a top rated dog/house sitter.

Laura is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our furry troop! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She is very warm and friendly and has been great with our pets!

Information Laura L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pup has any special needs, medications, or behaviors that I should know about to make my stay there comfortable for them. I of course can’t do visits for or stay with dogs exhibiting any aggressive behaviors, but can accept almost any other type of dog. And I of course can do visits for cats as well!

A typical day

I will snuggle with your dogs, play ball with them in the house or outside, play tug-of-war, go on walks, and just give them lots of loves and pets to make them feel comfortable. Whatever you wish!

As I said elsewhere, I am a homeschooling mom and also a pastor‘s wife. So while my schedule is quite busy and often changes, it is quite flexible so I fit in overnight housesitting, walks or visits in between my other responsibilities.
