Reliable, Trustworthy Pet Lover

Pet care experience

I've been a dog owner and lover all my life! I'm 34, female, a responsible adult who genuinely loves dogs and wants to help area dog owners provide safe and affectionate care for their dogs and homes. You can have the peace of mind you need to enjoy your time away without worrying about your pet’s safety! I'm able to board or dog sit with your pet throughout the day and night. Additionally, you can know that your home is occupied by a responsible adult who will care for your home—and your dog(s)!—as if they were her own. I also love sitting for cats, lizards, birds and other animals. I've been a pet sitter for over five years, have references available, and am excited to expand my client base!

Laura is a dream! She took such great care of my 15 year old dog, and was so easy to communicate with, sending me pictures and updates to soothe my nervous soul :) She left the house spotless and was also so fun to sit and chat with. Your pups are in wonderful hands with Laura!

As a first time pet owner, I am still learning how to continue on with out of town trips when pets cannot come along (Had the same issue with leaving my kids)! Rover offers an amazing opportunity to balance both: the much needed getaway trips and leaving your pet to someone you can trust. Laura is someone I would trust leaving my children with (she is also a swim instructor), but also trust to stay in my home to care for our beloved Malte-Shih. Laura has watched Paxon twice. The first time was for 9 days, and the second time for an overnight trip. Paxon bonded to Laura immediately. Not only was she able to set boundaries with him (Again, I am still learning in this area), but she was able to show him love and affection! Laura knew we would miss him so arranged for Face Time sessions! I highly recommend Laura to watch your beloved dog!

Laura S. went above and beyond in taking care of my pets for over a week. She kept me informed and took great care of my animals. I would highly recommend her. As someone who has been reluctant to go out of town because I needed someone to take care of my pets, having Laura available will make my life much easier.

Information Laura S. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs, but especially big ones! I definitely like to meet a dog or dogs before I sit, so I know their quirks and loves before I come. This enables me to provide a better experience for your dog!

A typical day

Besides walks, I play with the pets, pet them, bathe them if necessary, take them to any nearby parks, and even take them swimming (if they enjoy such an activity!).
