Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, loving care for your companions
I’ve grown up with pets and have lots of experience with dogs and cats. I’ve helped raise two lively, happy, and well-behaved Border Collies from puppies, and I currently have my own rescue cat who I adopted when she was young. I understand how much love, patience, and consistency pets need to feel secure and happy. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ pets, always treating them as if they were my own. I have experience with many breeds, and I have a keen interest in animal behaviour, which I use to my advantage when providing high-quality, loving care for pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I can offer house sitting, drop in visits and dog walking. I understand the importance of routine and familiarity for your pets, and I am happy to provide care in your home that ensures your pets feel safe, happy and comfortable. I would enjoy exploring or returning to the walks local to your home, ensuring a familiar, enjoyable experience for your dogs.
Ratings and reviews
Laura has house sat for me twice now and I'll continue to book in with her going forward. She sent me regular photos and updated me throughout her stay. My pets were clearly settled having her around and she left my house clean and tidy. Thanks again Laura :)
Laura house sat my two dogs and kept me up to date with photos during her stay. My cavalier and retriever clearly had a great time with her and special instructions were followed. I'll definitely be using Laura again as she is super friendly and also works flexibly, which helped massively when organising the meet & greet and her stay.
Laura has looked after my elderly cat Shu Shu many times and has always done an amazing job. Shu is a domestic long hair so needs regular grooming and also has arthritis so needs daily medication. Laura is very reliable and caring and I have total peace of mind knowing Shu is being looked after well in her care.
Laura has been looking after and walking my dog for 2 years. She is calm, caring and understanding of my dogs needs. She knows how to socialise them well and is very trustworthy.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I work from home and I am flexible with location, so I can house sit and keep your pets company. I also manage my own workload so I can organise my time around pet care and dog walks, to suit your pets' individual needs! My availability differs, and it could be any day of the week. My background is adult nursing meaning I am DBS checked, I occasionally work bank shifts when I am available, though I would not do this when house sitting, to ensure your pets are given the attention they need. I like to be active and take advantage of the local walks, so I am happy to care for active dogs.

- Please inform me of any behavioural issues or special requirements. Ensure your pets are comfortable getting to know a new person without showing aggression. I will do my best to manage difficult behaviour if it does not involve putting myself at risk. Please let me know your pets' routines and preferences so we can have a positive experience together. I look forward to building relationships with your companions!
