Looking to expand my love for dogs

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Laura! Animals mean a lot to me. For my whole life I have always wanted to be working with them. I have worked at a dog daycare facility as a pet technician in Bloomfield Hills. I've worked there for about 3 years now and I absolutely loved it. I've worked with many different dog breeds and different animals. Growing up I've always had multiple pets including two dogs, two cats, and a potbelly pig. I've watched over multiple peoples dogs and pets before through this site and even before using this site. I'm able to administer medication if needed. I've completed the course knowing dogs 101 and 201. I'm also attending Catch Canine Trainers Academy to become a certified dog trainer. I am a member & insured through Pet Sitters Associates. (Broadened Property damage coverage & bond) I know a lot about dog body language from working at a dog daycare. 30 min walk 45 min walk 1 hour walk 1 1/2 walk 20 min jog (one dog at a time) I also require to meet the owner prior just to make sure the dog/other animal feels comfortable around me and so I can get to know them a bit! Also, I would like to go over feeding instructions and medications (if any). If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thank you for reading my profile :)

As a first-timer using Rover, I was nervous about finding someone who would be a good fit for watching my dog. Overall, it was a great experience having Laura watch Bentley in my home. Bentley gets anxious whenever I am away, but she did a great job looking after him and making sure he felt comfortable. She kept me in the loop of what was going on and sent me pictures each day! By the end of the stay, Bentley had warmed up to her and his anxiety levels had gone down. I will definitely be using Laura in the future for dog walks and home-sitting!

Immediately upon viewing Laura's profile I knew she was the answer we'd been looking for. Over this past month, she's come twice per week to walk Sadie. It's been such a huge relief to have someone I can trust to come to my home to break up the day while I'm at work.

Laura is a pleasure to work with. She is great with our dogs and very reliable. I was impressed with her professionalism and presentation one our initial meet and greet. We will be utilizing her services again.

If your dog likes to play ball I love playing ball. If we go on walks it will most likely be in your neighborhood or where the dog is familiar with. I want to make your dog feel comfortable and try and have the same daily routine as you would do with your dog.
