New Step Dog Mom/Pawsitively Tails!
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m LaLa! I believe every pet deserves Dog-Mom level care—the kind where they’re treated like family, not just a client. With years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your dog can truly relax. I’m extremely patient and gentle, whether I’m bonding with an anxious rescue, entertaining an energetic puppy, or tending to the needs of a sweet senior. I pay close attention to every detail, from their feeding schedule to their favorite belly rub spot, and I’m skilled at reading body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I provide regular updates, cute photos, and even fun paw report cards so you always know how your fur-baby is doing. Life can be unpredictable, and I do my best to be flexible and understanding when schedules shift. Most of all, I love building connections with each pet I care for—because to me, they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. 🐾
About Laura S.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in your home. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs before each visit. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and always make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, calm environment. I respect your space—leaving your home just as I found it—and keep doors locked, alarms set, and your pet safely indoors or secured outside as requested. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to body language, especially with shy or anxious pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

A typical day
A Typical Day with Me 🐶 Whether it’s a walk, a quick drop-in, or an overnight stay, I tailor each day to your dog’s needs, energy level, and personality. For dog walks, we’ll enjoy a safe and stimulating stroll—sniff breaks, potty time, and a little exercise to burn off that extra wiggle energy. I always keep a watchful eye on surroundings and your pup’s comfort, making sure we return happy and refreshed. During drop-in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of play or cuddle time (depending on their mood). I also check on anything else you’d like—mail, lights, or plant watering—so you can have peace of mind while away. When I’m house sitting, your dog’s routine stays as close to normal as possible. We start the day with a morning walk or backyard play, then enjoy relaxed companionship throughout the day—whether that’s playing fetch, practicing commands, or curling up for a nap. In the evening, we wind down with a calm walk and quiet cuddle time before bed. No matter the service, your pup gets one-on-one attention, lots of love, and consistent communication with photo updates—so you always know they’re in good hands. 🐾
