Genuine, trust worthy animal lover!

I live in a gated house in Brownsville across the street from Olinda Park. Most of the updates I send to clients are via my phone #, not thru the Rover app, but we can use whichever you prefer :) If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We can do a meet and greet with your pup and/or FaceTime. *IMPORTANT* Due to high Rover fees deducted from my services, I cannot accept bookings where parking is not complimentary. Due to my work/gym schedule, I do not board or housesit dogs with separation anxiety. - I’ve had dogs ever since I was 3 years old. At 3 years old, I selected a puppy with 3 legs because I felt like no one would want her and take care of her like me. She lived for 16 years. - I had a rotty mix, who I found in front of my house in 2007. Sadly, we had to put him to sleep on January 2021 at 15 years old. He had a herniated disc surgery at 12 and neutered at 14. Through it all, I was there to take care of him with medication, therapy, & vet visits. I also had a chihuahua who passed away in June 2024 at 14 years old from old age.

This is our second time using Laura and we have nothing but positive feedback to share! Her consistent updates throughout allow us to enjoy our time away knowing our pups are well taken care of.

Laura over communicated in the best way possible. We never had to ask for pics or updates; she was always on top of it. We will be using Laura again for future trips.

Laura is fantastic! We traveled to Brazil for a week and we were pretty nervous about leaving our babies with someone new. Laura came for a meeting with us and we liked her right the way. She has a very friendly personality and she is also very reliable. During our trip she communicated with us every day, sending us pictures of our dogs. Our babies loved her. I’m really happy that we found Laura, we will be traveling again in March and she will be sitting for us .

Laura was amazing with River! She was patient, attentive, and kept me updated the whole time with photos and little notes about their day. River clearly felt comfortable and cared for, and I could relax knowing he was in great hands. I’d absolutely book with Laura again, highly recommend! 🐾💕

Laura took great care of our dogs during our short weekend trip! She was really communicative and kept us updated as the girls were fed and walked. She sent tons of pictures and videos throughout her stay! Laura was very respectful and also left our house nice and clean. I highly recommend having Laura take care of your fur babies!

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, they are free to roam around. If I have 2 dogs (and depending on their size and energy, I will probably put one in crate or keep them in separate rooms when I leave the apartment. I will ask owner if they are ok with crating for this particular situation. This is the ONLY time I will crate unless owner has specific instructions.

A typical day

I will always ask the owner what’s permissible before anything. I take the dogs for potty breaks 3-4 times a day (unless stated not to do so by owner). I have a large backyard where they can sunbathe or play. During your pet's stay, I try to keep them active and provide lots of attention!

Dogs over 1 year old
I would like to what their behavior is around other dogs (shy, hyper, defensive, etc.). I’d like to know what your pet mainly dislikes and likes so I can make their stay enjoyable and stress free. Any allergies or medications they are taking would be great to know as well.
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.
