Animal lover w/ lots of experience

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m currently between dog foster placements so I'm looking for opportunities around the city. I'm fairly new to the area from Washington, DC, and am looking to find new clients. I'm currently in Lakewood but am willing to travel for a house stay anywhere around Denver and even outside of the metro area if the opportunity is right. Equal opportunity snuggler of both pups and cats. I'm up for long walks exploring the city, hikes, zoomies, or just chilling on the couch, whatever your pet prefers! If you have any commands or obedience training that you're working on, let me know -- I'm always happy to help reinforce positive behaviors. If I'm taking care of your pet, you can expect lots of photo updates, videos, and animal selfies of our adventures while you're out of town. Excited to meet you and your pet!

Laura was wonderful to work with. We have two large dogs, they loved her. She communicated the entire time and sent pictures daily. We were supposed to be gone 7 days but it turned to 8 due to a canceled flight. She was flexible and stayed the extra day so we didn’t have to scramble for something else. We will definitely ask her to watch our house and dogs again!

Laura did a great job. Porter was happy and healthy when we got home. Our home was in good order. She was very considerate and professional!

Laura was wonderful with our dogs and cats! She provided photos and updates daily, and was considerate of our dog’s special needs in relation to behavior and intervertebral disc disease. She was even thoughtful enough to ask if our dogs had coats to take them out in the cold (after we forgot to leave them out). I felt very comfortable leaving all our animals in her care!

Laura did an amazing job dog sitting our VERY shy dog, Ranger. She was patient and took the time to build his trust. She stayed at our house for 5 days and when we returned, everything was tidy and all the animals were calm and content. Laura did a great job keeping us posted with pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her.

Regular walk breaks throughout the day. Lots of cuddles and pets, if requested. Naps are great also. I understand it's hard for pets when their parents go away. My goal is to keep them as comfy, calm, and content as possible.

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet

If you have any commands or obedience training that you're working on, let me know! Always happy to help reinforce positive behaviors. The more I know about your dog, the better I can provide care for them. So tell me everything! No breed preferences; love em all!

A typical day

I'm up for long walks, hikes, or quick strolls exploring the city, whatever your pup prefers! I walk a lot and keep a fit lifestyle so it's really up to your pooch. Because of liability issues and unfamiliarity with your dog's behavior, I am not going to be comfortable in off-leash situations or in dog parks.

I work from home full time so I'm available to spoil your pup (or cat) throughout the day. My mornings start pretty early which means that I'm available for longer walks or hikes in the afternoons/evenings. For pets that aren't as active, I'm an expert-level couch sitter and snuggler.
