Highlights
Pet care experience
Insured and passionate pet care
Hi, I’m a 29-year-old animal lover from Earl Shilton with a huge passion for caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I’ve been walking dogs for friends and family for most of my life, and I’ve also gained experience helping in rescue centres and veterinary practices. I also work part-time in a doggy day care, which has given me even more hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and behaviours. I own horses, cats, and a bearded dragon, and in the past I’ve also cared for guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I hold a Level 2 qualification in Horse Care, I am DBS checked, trained in First Aid, and fully insured for complete peace of mind. I offer reliable dog walking and in-home pet sitting services, treating every animal as if they were my own while carefully following each owner’s routine and instructions. I also have experience caring for sighthounds and have been regularly looking after my friend’s dogs for over a year. Many of my clients own this wonderful breed, including one with additional needs, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and individual care. With my own car, I’m able to travel throughout Leicestershire to provide flexible and dependable pet care services.

Safety, trust & environment
I always aim to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable, settled, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether that’s sticking to feeding times, favourite walking routes, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, care, and affection throughout my visits. I’m also very respectful of your home and happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in parcels, or opening and closing curtains to help keep everything running smoothly while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Laura was amazing with Nilo, house was left clean and tidy and I received updates during the stay… would book again 👏🏻
Laura was quick to reply, helped at short notice and most importantly was amazing with my dog Stevie. Stevie loved her straight away. Laura kept me up to date and informed which really put my mind at rest when I couldn’t me there for her myself. Thanks!
Laura did everything that was asked of her and helped us at very short notice. Will definitely use again.
Laura, has looked after my large male greyhound at our house on a few occasions. He had a major spinal injury a few months back so has special needs, like help walking, exercises and massages, and medication to take. Laura handled this without any issues. She was brilliant with him in the recent heat, making sure he stayed cool by keeping him in during the heat of the day, giving him plenty of water and putting his cool coat on.
Laura regularly looks after my two sighthounds, 3yo one male one female. My whippet is very lead aggressive, Laura ensures he is walked in more quiet areas, and still gets his exercise. They are cared for well, and I feel at ease when they're in her care!
