Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet lover
I grew up with family pets (cats and dogs) and didn’t last long living with my partner before we got our own. He’s been a whirlwind of fun and chaos but I wouldn’t change him for the world. I love animals and am always the random person who comes and asks if they can pet your dog! (Or cat). I love pets of all shapes and sizes and am used to a range of behavioural challenges! We often dog sit for family members or I help out walking their dogs and I’d love to do more of it. I adore every pet and love long walks or cuddles on a sofa! I’m always that person out at a pub greeting all the dogs, unfortunately mine isn’t a cuddle bug!

This means my mornings, evenings and weekends are free! I have a secure garden and live very close to plenty of different walking spots. My dog stays downstairs and has free roam, can cuddle on the sofa or enjoy their own space (mine tends to nap in a different room to us!). When we look after friends or family dogs they are upstairs with us, while mine stays down still. I also have a crate if needed.

Ratings and reviews
I couldn’t speak higher of Laura and how she has cared for my very old and complex little dog Tetley. He started off the week unwell which is stressful when he is so old but she was amazing at keeping me informed and stayed calm. She’s looked after him through such hot weather and has taken really good care of him. We had photo updates and regular messages whilst still allowing us to focus on our holiday. She has been an angel last minute stepping in and allowing us to have a family break as our usual dog sitter was unable to have him. We wouldn’t have been able to all be together and knowing he was having a lovely time and company too was amazing. Couldn't rate her higher and she left everywhere so tidy too. Tetley was so happy to see us but it was clear he’s been well looked after and Laura even took time to message my family to put their minds at rest. Thank you Laura for taking such good care of Tetley. You really are an angel and have allowed us to have our holiday and make some lovely memories with our children 🥰
Had an enjoyable holiday knowing that dogs are safe and happy with Laura. She is capable and reliable and she understands dogs even those with potentially difficult behaviours. Bilbo and Hamish love her!
As always lovely to come home to calm and happy dogs thanks to Laura's care.
As always Laura looks after the dogs so well; they are happy to see her and spend time with her and I can relax knowing they're in safe hands.
Laura really loves and understands dogs and my two are relaxed and contented when she's been looking after them. I am so grateful to her for taking time to get to know my latest arrival who tends to guard the house and is nervous when people he doesn't know come round. He settled with Laura quickly and both dogs adore her now. Laura is also a very capable and responsible person; I never have any concerns about leaving them in her charge.
Laura has managed Hamish so well through the 'getting to know him' period. He really doesn't like anyone he doesn't know coming into the house but he's happy to see Laura now. She's very experienced with dogs and manages both of them well; she's also a very reliable and capable person and the dogs are happy and relaxed when she's been with them.
