Colombian Veterinarian & groomer

Pet care experience

I am a certified Veterinarian in Colombia who recently moved to the United States. As my passion is working with and for pets, this is a great opportunity to meet new furry friends. I have great experience handling and taking care of different dogs breeds and cats, plus I live in an amazing pet friendly area with lots of places to walk your dog. I can administer oral and topical medications to your pet, and for your peace of mind, I can identify and report any changes in the dog's behavior, as well as any physical problems. Furthermore, I am currently starting my house call grooming business so If you want your pet to look fashionable and relax after a walk , I can make it happen.

I hit the jackpot my first time using Rover using Laura. She is a vet and a groomer and her apartment is very nice and convenient! She sent me photos of my dog and took amazing care of her!

As Laura being a veterinarian in Colombia, there is not a more suitable person for the job than her. She is passionate, professional and responsible, with hands on experience on animal handling and care.

The human in the house has to work some crazy hours. So in search of the right dog sitter we met Laura. I am very friendly but because of my size I tend to scared new people away, I like my home, my environment and I don't behave well in other people homes. Laura listened to my human in regards to the issues I have and how to handle me while building up trust and while she followed the ways to handle the issues Laura also implemented her knowledge that allowed her to become part of the pack in my home (because well, I'm kind of the boss-do not tell my human). We both now greet her for love and pats when she visits, always looking forward to her visits. Laura took care of me while the human has gone out of town as well. The human doesn't worry about me while gone and knows I am much happier being in my own home and that I'm, fed and getting my medications as needed. My human is grateful Laura is part of our pack as it definitely took a special person with understanding and patience to tend me. She is very flexible with days and times and leaves notes with updates and texts pictures of our time together. We highly recommend Laura if you need to make sure your fur babies need to be tended to while you are at work or away. I am truly blessed she is part of my pack.

Laura is the best and we love having her hangout with our precious Vida while we are away, if I’d give her more than 5 stars I will. She is so sweet and really loves what she does! Thanks Laura for being so awesome, we appreciate you. We highly recommended Laura.
