We have a large home with a fenced in back yard. I am comfortable with crating if that is what your pet is used to.

Information Laura S. would like to know about your pet

I like to do a meet and greet when meeting a new dog so that we can get to know each other and feel comfortable around each other's presence. Any information you can provide is helpful in providing the best care.

A typical day

I am in good physical shape and can provide your pet with a short trail runs or brisk walks. I tailor activities to each individual pet. Some pets like to be brushed after their walk.

Pet care experience

Aside from caring for our family dogs, I have housed and cared for foster dogs from puppies, special needs and senior dogs. I provided love, structure, lots of walks and basic training to give the pups their best chance at finding a forever home.

Laura very detailed and asked the right questions for dealing with multiple dogs. Really understood importance of keeping small details in place while we were gone.

Laura has pet sat for our two cats twice now. She goes above and beyond and even stopped by an extra time to check on one of the kitties. She is dependable, always on time, very responsible and a great communicator. I did not worry with her in charge. Hope she is available next time I need a sitter!

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.
