Pet care experience

Happy, safe, pet loving home!

Hi :) I’m Laura and me and my family are huge animal lovers! I have taken care of my own dog for 8 years he is part of the family and involved in everything we do. Before this, friends and family have relied on me to pet sit for their cats and dogs on a regular basis throughout the year. Whatever routine your pet is in will be stuck to at our home. We love taking our dog out on long walks exploring nature. I also have 25 years worth of experience taking care of smaller animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits, I feel comfortable handling them and confident of their care needs. I manage my own schedule at work therefore, I am able to be at home for walks/pet care whenever needed. My husband also works from home permanently. I have a spacious garden that is fenced in and secure which my 8 year old westie Oscar loves to play in. Oscar is loving and friendly and would love an occasional playmate! We have a 3 year old toddler who is comfortable around animals and has always been taught to treat them with respect and care and handle them gently.

Thank you Laura and Simon for taking such good care of our dog Ted. I was extremely nervous about leaving Ted as he can be quite anxious and isn't used to not being at home. Laura put my mind at rest with lots of photos and updates. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

Perfect! Nothing to add! Felt our dog had a home from home. He was made to feel a part of the family, loved and made to feel secure. Would definitely recommend.

I cannot thank Laura enough for looking after Cooper so well. I felt like Cooper was made part of their family as soon as he walked through the door. I received regular updates and pics of Cooper which was so lovely. I think Cooper has a better holiday than me :-) Thank you again Laura - I will be using you again and will definitely recommend you to my friends and family.

Laura was fantastic. I was kept updated regularly and couldn’t of asked for a better sitter. The girls enjoyed themselves so much they seemed reluctant to leave. House was very clean and tidy. Would use again.
