Pet care experience

I love my pets, ur pets, all pets!!

I have loved a variety of animals since I was a child, ranging from cats, dogs, parakeets and hamsters, fish, ferrets, etc. I have my B.S in Biology with a concentration in Veterinary Medicine! I have worked at multiple animal hospitals as both a receptionist and veterinary technician for 6+ years. I am certified in pet CPR (as well as human CRP, if ever needed)! Friends, family, and neighbors have always relied on me to answer questions about proper care, feeding, walking, bathing/grooming, and/or medicating their furry babies! I do not give medical advice, but I am always willing to help any way I can, without overstepping any medical boundaries. I go to the gym for many reasons, but an important one is so I can handle animals of all sizes 😊

Laura did a wonderful job taking care of our pup! It’s last minute, and she is more than accommodating definitely would recommend.

We had never left our pets in another's care for longer than two days, and even then it was always with a close friend. A week? For our skittish cats? With a stranger? Unthinkable, but it had to be done. Laura not only took great care of our skittish cats but she helped sooth their skittish owners' nerves, as well. Her daily updates were timely and thorough. I highly recommend her services, particularly for those with nervous cats and who may themselves be nervous cat people.

The BEST sitter I have ever had. I didn’t worry once about my babies while I was away. She gave amazing and detailed updates with photos! She went above and beyond in taking care of my dogs and my dogs (& me) absolutely love her!

Laura was awesome and so polite! She came in, made him feel comfortable, brought him downtown to meet and greet and walk, then when they got home she played with him for a bit before putting him back in his crate. I cannot say enough good things and highly recommend Laura! ?

Laura was great! My chihuahua is a little anxious around new people and she was very patient with him and he warmed up to her pretty quickly. I ran out of puppy pads too and she brought him some. She sent me regular updates and photos as well! Will definitely be using her again!

Safety, trust & environment

My serenity is being around animals. I treat my pets as I would if I had my own human children, and I would do the same for another person’s pet(s) as well. My pets are not limited in their home—they have the freedom to go on the couches, the bed, anywhere the please! I’m the type of person that will double-check the front door to ensure it’s closed completely or to check their food/water bowls (if free-fed) to make sure they always have a feast in front of them. I adore animals and I will make sure they constantly feel safe, comfortable, and loved 💛

Pets

A typical day

For my dog friends—I personally love to be outdoors and exercise, so as long as it is OK with the you, we will be out and about walking around and exploring the neighborhood. Please let me know if there are any spots your pup enjoys to visit; I’d love to bring your dog to local dog parks so he/she can see his friends and maybe make some new ones! For my kitty friends—my babies at home have a seemingly unlimited supply of toys to keep them active and mentally stimulated. I believe an active cat is a happy cat! My favorite toys to have kitties play with are teaser wands so if you have those, let me know! If not, I can always bring my own ?

For my dog friends—Please let me know if your dog has a favorite spot to toilet or if he/she has a favorite dog park! Also please let me know if your dog is good with other dogs so I know whether or not to let him/her socialize when we go for walks. For my pet friends alike—please let me know if your baby has allergies or any medical issues as I always like to monitor pets’ health while they’re in my care! Additionally, let me know if they have any other preferences i.e. favorite spots to be scratched, how to be approached, etc.
