My schedule is currently very flexible & I am often open to travel a ways from home for longer sits. I have my own cat, Frank, who is fairly aloof & quite understanding when I come home smelling like other animals. 😹

Dog skills

25 years of experience

Safety, trust & environment

My current home is not suitable for having extra pets in it, so getting to sit in YOUR home is great for all parties involved - I get my cute animal fix, you get peace of mind that your pets & home are safe & well looked after, & your pets don't have too much disruption to their daily routine so they're less stressed while you're away!

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet

I look forward to learning about your pets personality & quirks. Please let me know if they are chewers, experience separation anxiety, or have any certain command words/phrases I should be aware of. Do they know any cool tricks? Have any silly/cute behaviors you want me to know about?

A typical day

Snuggling sweet animals is a favorite pastime of mine (my cat is not the cuddliest creature, unfortunately). Love breaking out a laser pointer or seeing dogs go wild over a ball. What are your pets favorite toys?

Pet care experience

I come from a major animal loving family & have been surrounded by many different types of animals as far back as I can remember! I'm surprised it took me so long to make it into a profession, but I've been caring for other peoples' pets & homes for about 10 years now.

Laura was fantastic with our animals. They loved her, they did not appear to be stressed at all like they were after leaving them at a facility kennel type environment. She was great, our residence was watched over and our pets were safe in their own environment. Denali and Remington seem to miss her after she had left. Great job Laura, you deserve more than 5 stars but that’s all there is. I would definitely recommend her to everyone.

We absolutely loved Laura and will rebook with her again! Our scheduled sitter canceled with less than 24 hours notice and Laura jumped in to save the day. She came by within hours to meet the pack. Our dogs loved her and we felt 100% confident our babies and our house were in good hands. We all joked that the first sitter canceling ended up being the best thing that could have happened. Note: Laura was originally one of our top picks when we booked, but the other sitter responded first (only by minutes)

Laura was so friendly and kind with my dog. My dog absolutely loves her…and so do we! We felt comfortable leaving my home and dog in her care. We will definitely be calling on her services again.

Laura was great with our three girls. They had never been left before and she stayed at our house and took care of them. Was very pleased and will definitely use her again if the need should arise.
