Vet student, dog & cat lover

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my entire life (over 25 years), both small and large dogs, and started working in my dad's veterinary hospital in high school. Since then, I've worked in primary care practices, emergency hospitals, and specialty practices (primarily cardiology). In college, I studied molecular biology and chemistry from Skidmore College and just finished my Master's Degree in public health microbiology & emerging infectious diseases from George Washington University. I just finished my second year of veterinary school at Ohio State. My knowledge on animal health and care will ensure your pets come home safely, hydrated and tick free! I am not intimidated by large breeds and understand the need for exercise in small pocket breeds. I love hanging out with dogs - I'm always willing to play a game of fetch, go on a run, or get some much needed sunshine! I am available during holidays and look forward to working with you and your pup!

Laura is, by far, one of the most responsible women that I know. She is a dedicated caregiver and extremely passionate about animals. I've seen this when she's taking care of my dog and around her own animals, including cats, large dog breeds, and even horses! There is no one I trust more. She's extremely punctual and reliable. She also has experience that few other caregivers can match; from working in veterinary hospitals to being a veterinary medicine student, no dog or cat is in better hands than when Laura watches over them. I can't recommend her enough! She's my go-to sitter. Rest assured that your pet will be well cared for while you're away.
