Experienced dog/cat sitter and walker in Wimbledon

Pet care experience

Your local pet sitter in Wimbledon, flexibly available! Note: I have a dog of my own, a friendly male chihuahua, Pepe. I've been very lucky to be surrounded by dogs and other pets/animals all my life. I've taken care of all from single pet households to a local petting zoo/farm, that at the time also hosted the owner's pedigree show dogs and their two litters. I took care of 3 adult Belgian Shepherds and their 7+7 puppies, 2 sheep, chickens, doves, a parakeet, domestic lizards including an iguana, 2 cats, a fishtank and a snake. I loved every second of it! I've owned 3 Belgian shepherd's, and currently share my home with a male chihuahua Pepe and a big fish tank.

Laura is a wonderful cat-sitter who has brought my nervous little kitten out of her shell. I’m very glad to be able to leave my kitten in such a safe pair of hands!

I had the pleasure of having Laura as my cat sitter while I was on holiday, and I couldn't be more pleased with the level of care she provided for my cat. My cat is incredibly shy and sensitive to new people, but Laura's professionalism and expertise were evident from the start. She managed to establish a friendly distance with my cat, which allowed her to feel comfortable and secure during my absence. One thing that stood out to me was Laura's attention to detail. Not only did she ensure that my cat's basic needs were met, but she also went above and beyond to make sure my cat had plenty of entertainment and stimulation while I was away. I was pleasantly surprised to come home and find that Laura had hidden snacks around my apartment for my cat to discover, providing both mental and physical stimulation. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience with Laura as my pet sitter. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for my cat put my mind at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Laura, for your hard work and dedication!

We have used Laura a couple of times now and we hope it will continue to be a regular thing. Our cat B absolutely loves her coming in to play and she does a fantastic job! She's always so communicative and leaves the best report cards with photos/videos! The visit report cards really do capture Bynx's personality!!

We are super happy to met Laura. She sent me so many photos and one of the cat was so so shy. But I’m happy to see he managed to see her on last visit day. When I’m back from holiday, it was clean and plenty of water and litter. We are definitely use her services again!! Thank you so much, Laura;)

Safety, trust & environment

I live centrally in Wimbledon Chase, nearby great parks for short or long walks, as needed. You can easily spot me and Pepe going for walks in the neighbourhood. I currently am not able to offer a garden/yard, and therfore compensate with loads of time outside walking when boarding from my own home. For dogs bigger than 15kg, I prefer to care for them in their own home as my flat might not provide them with enough space for boarding purposes. My small dog will keep company for your four-legged friend in any case. Any additional requirements, such as your dog needing a crate, will be discussed accordingly.

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any dietary requirements or requires any medication. The most important thing is that your dog gets along with other dogs and is generally well behaved.

A typical day

We love going on long relaxed walks in our local park and at home we like doing nose work with snuffle mats and kongs. Depending on our visiting doggy friends, we'll choose our activities according to every pup's needs. Our favourite places are cafes in Wimbledon Village and the Wimbledon Common.

Availability

I'm currently taking a career break from my corporate city job and looking to pivot my career back toward my passion - dogs and other animals. Therefore I'm available very flexibly to both walk your dog/s and/or arrange boarding in my home or house sit at yours.
