Caring Dog Walker
Pet care experience
I am a 24 year old Virginia Tech graduate living in Philadelphia with a full time job. I am looking to walk and take care of dogs in my free time. I worked at an upscale kennel for a year and very much enjoyed my time there. While it was a job, I loved it so much because it did not feel like it was work to me. I have always loved animals and would take great care of your cat/dog(s) if I am chosen to do so. I understand that dogs need human affection and sufficient walks daily. I love all dogs no matter how big or small and am up for taking care of just one, two, or multiple dogs. My schedule is fairly free most weekends and on weekdays starting at 4:30 PM.
Reviews
Laura is an excellent dog walker/pet sitter. Laura loves dogs and cats. She has had a dog all of her life. She is used to taking care of our dog: walking, playing, feeding. Laura is very responsible. In high school Laura worked at a kennel for one year. Her job included playing with dogs, feeding them, and giving them medicine. Also, Laura attended a high school for pre-veterinary students. I highly recommend Laura as a dog walker/pet sitter.
I worked with Laura at a pharmacy in our town. She was incredibly personable, hardworking, and dedicated to the work. She also worked part time at a kennel where she took care of every breed of dog. She loved the animals she worked with and was enthusiastic about the care she provided them. Laura is an animal person through and through. She would be a wonderful caregiver to any dog. Any dog caregiver would be lucky to have Laura to help.
Laura is great with all animals, but especially loves dogs. She went to a vocational high school for future veterinarians. Each summer, she would bring home a different animal and take great care of it. She is the best caregiver for her dog, Lucy. She enjoys taking her on long walks, playing with her, and cuddling with her.

I can provide as much attention to your dog as he/she wants. I will make sure your dog feels as safe as possible without the owners being present.
Information Laura S. would like to know about your pet
It is important to know how a dog reacts to being around people and other animals, even if the dog always has a positive reaction in these situations.
A typical day
I plan on taking dogs on walks to new spots that the dogs have not been to in order to experience new smells and break out of typical routine.
