Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced/Professional Sitter
If you're looking for an experienced, reliable, and kind sitter, you've found her. With 16 years of professional experience house and pet sitting for families across the U.S. and abroad, I've cared for a lot of fur babies and easily connect to animals of all types and personalities. I've cared for litters of kittens, senior cats on medication, puppies, chinchillas, reptiles, fish, toy breeds, large breeds such as Rottweilers and German Shepherds and everything in between! I'm an active person and really enjoy walking/hiking and playing with dogs. I am a full time professional pet sitter, so your animals are my number one priority and I'll be present all day to provide comfort, companionship and play, which is especially important for anxious pets and pets used to being around work-from-home/retired pet parents all day. I take my pet sitting duties very seriously and prioritize your pet's needs above everything else. You can count on me to respond quickly to communications, to follow your care instructions closely, and to provide sincere love and affection to your babies. I love what I do because I get paid to love! I will also take expert care of your home and plants. I was a luxury vacation rental manager and I am very familiar with how to care for a home. I enjoy cleaning, organizing and gardening, so your home will be kept clean and tidy and the garden and plants will be well looked after.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
It can be a stressful time for animals when their humans are away and I enjoy being able to stay overnight to provide them companionship and affection in their familiar surroundings. I'll closely follow the daily routine you've created with them and make sure they are getting all the food, exercise and love that they need.
Ratings and reviews
Laura goes above and beyond! She was absolutely amazing with our dog, and home! We will use her as much as we can! Absolutely incredible with a true loving heart for dogs!
Truly stellar! Our dog bonded with Laura immediately and her professionalism, communication, and caring throughout the stay was unparalleled. Quite simply the best dog sitter we have ever used.
Very dependable, reliable and pets adore Laura. Highly recommend
Laura constantly sent us pictures and had great communication. We have 1 puppy and 3 cats, one cat of which has a medical condition and needs medicine every 12 hours, and she was amazing at taking care of all of them. She took Toast (our pup) on 2 30 minute walks a day, keeping up with his energy. She also kept to our kinda strict feeding routine and schedule for all our pets. Overall she really was so amazing and professional and I’ve never had a better sitter. Absolutely will go with her again!
Laura took such wonderful care of our pups, Matcha and Celine! They wanted for nothing while we were away, and we loved receiving daily photos and reports that completely set our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and attentive sitter. Highly recommend! 🐾
This was our first time engaging Laura to watch our pets and we are delighted with her care of our elderly cat and 2 giant dogs. She also left our home in such excellent condition, it didn’t seem like anyone had stayed here. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I specialize in overnight pet sitting (I don't do drop-ins or walks-only services). I prefer a 2-night minimum and a maximum stay of 2 weeks.
