Dedicated to showing your pet love!

Pet care experience

I have experience not only with family pets but also did 4H dog training for years. I am comfortable with any size and breed! I’ve taken care of German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Rottweilers, Beagles, Pugs, Bulldogs, Chihuahas, Terriers, and more. All sizes and ages as I have raised many puppies and currently have older dogs. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and can even care for lizards, snakes, fish, and turtles. My sister is in vet school so you can imagine how close my family is to the animal kingdom. There is a local dog walk event in my hometown with competitions and my dog and I have won many of them every year due to the training I provided. I am confident in my ability to take care of your fur baby!

Laura was the best and took amazing care of my girl Layla! She sent updates and pictures every day and had zero doubts about her getting the best care. Couldn’t recommend Laura more & she’s my new go to!

Laura was absolutely amazing to have house sit, and pet sit for us. She went above and beyond with keeping us updated throughout the week and was always sending photos which was perfect!! This was our first time having someone other than family watch our animals for us, and she made us feel extremely comfortable knowing they were in great hands. I would 10000% recommend Laura for any services you may need!!!! We will definitely be using her again!!

We felt very comfortable having Laura come to our house and visit with our animals in preparation for her to House and Pet Sit for us in January. She left very detailed notes with photos of our animals while we were gone! We are looking forward to having her stay at our home for us in January!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets will have my undivided attention when they are in my care. I can help you reinforce commands and training such as crate training, recall, fun tricks, and more. There will be no shortage of play time when they are with me. I am extremely well-versed in doggie language and will get to know them and build their trust easily. Their safety and needs are my top priority.

Information Laura S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the temperament of your dog/cat so I can adjust the care to be specialized just for them! I know that some animals who are more shy tend to not enjoy walks around a lot of people or other animals. Also, let me know about any special needs or requests you have while I am watching your animal so I can make sure they have the perfect day.

A typical day

It is important for me that your pet gets ample amounts of exercise and mental stimulation. There is a dog park that I would love to take them to for doggie socialization and plenty of space for play. There are trails there that we can walk too with plenty of new smells. If I am staying at your home I have a couple games for them to sniff their way through that helps them with problem solving which can tire them out just as much as a walk!

I attend Purdue University, so before/after classes I have time. I have a cat of my own in my apartment so high quality pet care is always a priority and I will extend that to your animals as well.
