Pet care experience

Just a girl who loves animals

I have had dogs, fish, and rodents all my life. I volunteered at the Asheville Humane Society early into my teenage years. My previous job was at a dog daycare, which I worked at for one year. However, I recently left that job and have since been working as a pet bather at a grooming salon. I have pet sat for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, mice, fish, rabbits, pretty much anything. I am happy do feed, walk, play with, or just snuggle with any critter you might have!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am more than happy to provide any service you would like me to do for your fur baby in your home. I do not mind long walks/hikes, preparing complicated meals, playing, whatever you need. I never raise my voice or get physical with animals. I will care for them with love and care!

Laura is lovely! She babysat with our cavalier, at our house, while we had a long evening out. He is emotional and has SM so needs gentle care. We came home to a happy dog! Highly recommend Laura !

Laure did a wonderful job. She sent photos of my boys along with updates. My home was just as clean when I came back as it was when I left for my trip. I will definitely use Laura again.

My family and I went on vacation for 12 days and we could not leave our pets in a kennel for they have separation anxiety and Laura graciously agreed to stay at our house and watched our dachshund Nina and Ruby our cat. We were very pleased with Laura's work ethic and kindness to our animals. She was very professional, my pets love her, she took good care of the house and very clean, she sent me videos and pictures most everyday and she also answered my text in a reasonable amount of time. I got nothing but good to say about Laura I would highly recommend her; a great human being and fantastic pet sitter.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or medications that need to be accounted for. I used to give dogs medications every day at my last place of work so that is absolutely no problem. I also have lots of experience with seniors and other special needs. I am more than happy to accommodate!
