Pet care experience

Let me love your pet!

Hi there! My name is Laura and I am a passionate and active animal lover. By profession I am a registered nurse, but in my free time I love staying active by walking, hiking, and exploring Fernie - I would love if your pet would join me! I have a clean smoke free & child free home that is safe for pets of all kinds, but can also do home visits and walks at your home to keep your pet comfortable. I’ve had medium/large sized dogs as pets my whole life, and have experience babysitting cats, puppies, and dogs small and large. I understand that all dogs & cats are lovably different and I am happy to accommodate your pet’s needs in order to make sure they are happy, healthy and well taken care of!

Laura cared for my cat Wallace as if he was her own. He looked so comfortable and happy on all the check in photos she’s diligently provided. 10/10 will rebook.

Laura and her partner were amazing with my boys! They’re super cuddly and affectionate, and got all the loving they needed during their stay. Regular pictures and updates kept my peace of mind throughout their stay.

Laura took great care of my pup while I was away for a long weekend. Great communication and it was easy to organize. Would definitely have Laura watch her again!

My cat was leaving the house for the first time so it was stressful for both of us. Laura was really nice and she took really good care of our cat. I highly recommend her for your future dog/cat boarding!

Laura has cared for my young cat on multiple occasions and for extended periods and is incredible every time. She has a deep love for animals and the experience to boot. I’m fairly certain my cat loves her more than me now. Great pet sitter, I highly recommend her services.

Laura is a fun and loving dog sitter! She took great care of my pup and I would definitely recommend her as a sitter or a dog walker. She has a genuine love for animals
