Experienced Pet Sitter!

Pet care experience

My name is Laura, and I am a 27-year-old Vermont Native. I am sitter in the greater Burlington area ofVermont and am hoping to continue to care for your fur family. Growing up in northwestern Vermont, I have a love for the outdoors and take every chance I get to go outside and explore, whether that be with friends or four-legged family. I love meeting and getting to know dogs of all, ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience petting sitting dogs in the comfort of their own homes, as well as working with dogs in a humane society setting. I also previously worked at a doggie daycare for about a year and a half. As well as dogs I also have experience pet sitting for cats, small reptiles, and other small mammals. I love all animals and have experience as an Education Animal Care intern at Brevard Zoo in Melbourne, Florida. I also have worked for two seasons as a park ranger in beautiful Glacier National Park!

Laura is amazing!! She left descriptive summaries of each visit, shared tons of pictures and our kitties absolutely loved her!! She took such great care of our kitties, and relieved so much anxiety that I normally feel when we’re away. I can tell how much she cares about them, thank you Laura!!

Laura took such good care of our two dogs while we were away. Our dogs are our babies so it's very hard for us to leave them. Laura understands that and she sent frequent pictures and updates to let us know all was well. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and I have no hesitation recommending her!

Laura is so attentive to fur babies and miscellaneous details you may have missed yourself. It’s been such a relief having someone so trust worthy and diligent looking after our babies while we’ve been gone! Thanks so much for everything!
