Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring for your pets and walkies!
I have been a proud dog owner since I was young. I currently have two dogs a greyhound and a collie. Both enjoy long walks and regular exercise. I enjoy teaching them some cool tricks and we visit some lovely places such as the beach, woods and local parks.I have taken care of puppies right through to elderly dogs and have experience with challenging and reactive dogs. I work from home a lot and can accommodate around your needs. I spend a lot of time with my dogs and we have exercise everyday fitted into the daily routine I am happy to care for your pups with arrangement in advance. I can offer walks, feeds, daily checks, exercise, and overnight care- please note I offer a 15 min meet and greet at your home or locally if you are a new client to observe your pets where they are most comfortable and to discuss how you would like me to care for your pet and the duties you wish me to do. All dogs will be walked separately. I am flexible and can work from home a lot. I am able to offer short stays at present such as long weekends for day care or sitting depending on dates and preferences. Please bear in mind the house sitting hours schedule I currently work on is 8pm/9pm-8am/9am (distance dependent) and if you require an additional drop in visit/walk throughout the day time this will usually be mid/late afternoon for 30 minutes-1 hour before returning to your property in the evening to sit overnight. I do not offer 24/7 in the home during the day time when house sitting due to outside commitments but they will be exercised well and receive great interaction throughout. Please e sure this is the correct house sitting schedule for your pets before you book to avoid disappointment as I cannot guarantee I can remain in your home all day on a house sit without going out for a short while. Dependent on distance petrol/travel costs will be additional charge (usually 10 miles plus) I have a garden and have access to close by parks, beach and woodland areas. We often drive to the woods or hills if we want a longer walk. I have private sitter insurance.

Laura was fantastic when she recently looked after our rescue dog Alma for the day at short notice. She gave us regular updates and photos, left our house clean and tidy, and Alma was happy and comfortable. Would fully recommend Laura and use her services again ☺️

I work but can be flexible. I offer a lot more free time over weekends and half terms dependent on the needs of the dog.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not offer home boarding at this time. I do enjoy offering house sitting in your home subject to dates and needs of the pet.

A typical day
I love to stimulate your dogs and watch them grow and develop. I am able to play games, and offer them all the care and attention they need in my company. I will walk your dog separately to give them my full attention. We will go on nice walks, visit lots of nice places and this will include the local parks, beaches and woods.
