Walk MORE Bark LESS!

Pet care experience

Since I was a child, I have been surrounded with aiding in care to furry friends ranging from farm animals, like horses and goats, to small pets, like birds and rabbits. Of course, all the while dogs being a constant and my all time favorite pet! I worked with my family dog in 4-H activities for a time in my childhood as well. Family and neighbors have put their trust in me to sit & accompany their furry friends ranging anywhere between a daytime check-in, to a week long vacation.

Laura was great! She was able to watch our guy on short notice, and he had safe, relaxing time with her. Would definitely recommend.

I am extremely attentive and will ensure that your pup gets walked as many times as requested daily and played with too. I live in a quiet apartment complex, with multiple dog parks and ample areas with trails if you prefer to not have your pup engage with others!

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what types of special requests you have for your dog, prior to us meeting or my walk/sit scheduled. Please let me know if you prefer I know post your pup either, I’m very social media savvy, so I love to share what pups I walk on my story and tag Rover. I am extremely versatile and well versed with dogs of all breeds and backgrounds. However, if your dog doesn’t socialize well with others or you prefer they aren’t taken to a public place, please specify ahead of time. Please let me know anything I should know while taking care of your dog & they will be treated as if they were my own!

A typical day

I love to go on long walks with the pups I sit! I also love playing with pups as much as they probably would love to play with humans! We can go on adventures, play fetch and occasional potty breaks throughout the day! Don’t worry- your pups energy will be gone before they return.
