Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with difficult-to-walk dogs, I am accustomed to crating animals, and I am familiar with skittish creatures who need a little reassurance. I work hard to ensure safety, health, and comfort of all involved (including myself and others!)

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet

If your pet needs special care, I’m willing and able to provide that. I can take detailed notes (or you can provide your own) and do follow-up research to make sure that I know everything I need to know to give your pet exactly what they need.

A typical day

I enjoy taking walks and helping a fun-loving dog or cat play with their favorite toys. I love sitting with a snuggly critter and giving pets and belly rubs.

Pet care experience

{My availability starts back again the beginning of June 2026!} I’ve had both personal and professional experiences caring for a variety of animals. I am comfortable with medications (even injections!) and with exotics. I enjoy learning more about animals I’m unfamiliar with, and will do my homework if yours is a creature I have not previously cared for.

Laura was punctual and our cat warmed up to her right away. She also communicated promptly which was very appreciated.

Laura was once again amazing! We can not express how great she is between sending pictures and thorough communication. Laura really goes above and beyond! We will continue to use her as long as she is willing to help us out!

Laura is literally the best sitter! We always felt so comfortable with her and knew Ozzie was in great hands. It’s clear to see how much she loves pets and taking care of them!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
