Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Dog Owner & Cat Lover
I’ve been a massive dog lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family home was always filled with the sound of wagging tails and happy barks—I’ve truly been surrounded by dogs since an early age! Today, that tradition continues with my very own pup, who is the absolute center of my world. I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets; they are family. I promise to treat your fur baby with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. Why Choose Me? 🏡 I am currently between jobs so I have high availability to look after your pet, but usually I work from home full-time, which means I am around and available all day long. Your dog won't have to lonely-watch the clock or wait hours for a bathroom break. Whether they need a quick lunchtime belly rub, a stretch of the legs, or just someone to snooze next to while I type away, I’ll be there to keep them company. Frequent Potty Breaks & Backyard Play: I have a flexible schedule, meaning regular trips outside to keep things clean and comfortable. Daily Walks & Adventures: Whether it’s a brisk neighborhood stroll or a fun sniffari at the local park, I’ll make sure they get their daily dose of fresh air and exercise. Mental Stimulation & Toys: From puzzle toys to standard fetch, I love keeping doggy brains active and engaged. Couch Cuddles & Company: If your dog is a professional lounger, they’ll have a cozy spot right next to my desk for ultimate relaxation and endless scratches behind the ears. Feeding & Medication: I will strictly follow your specific feeding schedule and can easily administer any routine oral medications if needed. Over the years, my love for animals has made me the go-to pet sitter for my friends and neighbours. Whether they are heading out for the day or a weekend getaway, they have always trusted me to look after their beloved dogs and cats. Through caring for so many different animals, I’ve developed a natural instinct for recognizing exactly what a pet needs—whether they are feeling anxious and need some quiet space, bursting with energy and craving a game of fetch, or just giving me "that look" that means it’s dinner time! I pride myself on being highly adaptable and knowing how to accommodate each pet's unique personality and routine to keep them feeling safe and happy.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and a crate which is available 24/7 as Freya is crate trained and uses that as her safe place. For dog walking, I am familiar to multiple types of harnesses and leads.
Ratings and reviews
Laura has looked after our 15 week old puppy Roxy twice now and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again! It was clear from the first meet how much she genuinely loves dogs. Roxy was really well looked after and we had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We highly recommend Laura and will definitely be booking with her again!

Schedule
Since I am currently in a transition period and waiting to start a new job, pet care fits perfectly and seamlessly into my weekly routine! Right now, my schedule is completely open, giving me the ultimate flexibility to dedicate my full time and attention to looking after your pet. Total Availability: Because I don’t have fixed office hours at the moment, I am at home throughout the day. This means I can easily accommodate your pet's exact routine—whether they need rigid medication times, frequent puppy potty breaks, or just someone around to prevent separation anxiety. Flexible Outings: I can plan walks, park visits, and backyard playtime during the quietest, most optimal times of the day, rather than rushing before or after a standard 9-to-5 shift.
