Information Laura R. would like to know about your pet

- Has your dog ever shown any leash reactivity, aggression, or resource guarding? - Any medical conditions, medications, or special care instructions? **I live in an apartment building, so I can't safely accommodate large dogs that are reactive to people or other dogs, since it's not possible to completely avoid encounters in shared spaces.**

A typical day

I work from home so your dog will have company throughout the day and can enjoy a mix of outdoor time, enrichment activities, and relaxing at home.

Pet care experience

I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pup like family while you're away. I work from home full-time, so your dog will always have company and lots of cuddles throughout the day. - I only host one client at a time, so you dont have to worry about unfamiliar dogs during their stay. -Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a slower-paced routine, I’m happy to match their needs. -I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I also have experience with dogs with separation anxiety and food or environmental allergies. 📷 You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and well cared for.

Laura and her partner were so wonderful with Millie for a two night stay. They were super attentive and took great care of our mini dachshund (who needs a lot of attention and love). We received plenty of pics and updates, as well. I will be definitely be booking with Laura again soon!

Amazing care. She sent pictures of my dog everyday. She even let me extend last minute which was appreciated. He had an amazing time with her and I will be rebooking with her. Thank you again.

Fantastic in house dog sitter. She is pleasant and friendly. She bonded with our large rescue dog within minutes of meeting him which allayed any our concerns about leaving our dog with a stranger. We highly recommend Laura without any hesitation.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
