For as long as I've known her, Laura has always been great with her dog as well as other peoples. One weekend, my family asked her to help watch our 3 Australian Shepherds while we were all gone on vacation. She gladly accepted and was able to handle all three of them extremely well. She's very aware that different dogs and dog breeds require different types of attention, care and affection and is willing to learn how to properly handle a dog if she does not already know what the best course of action is. She loves all dog breeds, especially larger dogs and is not afraid to handle any well-behaved dog. I trust her with my 3 dogs and I would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog sitter.
