Professional Dog & Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I mean it when I say I LOVE dogs and animals. I used to have a yellow lab named Angel whom I raised from a puppy until she sadly passed on 4 or 5 years ago. Unfortunately, my current living situation doesn't afford me the ability to have animals so I have to live vicariously through spoiling the animals I house sit for! I hope you will let me spoil yours, too! I have a spa studio business in Overland Park for my regular job. Fortunately, my hours are flexible so it's not a problem for me to drop in and take care of them through out the day while at work. I love taking your 4-legged creatures to the park, for walks, baths, appointments, etc. I'm also very good at play-time and I'm especially a professional when it comes to cuddle time. My massage background is valuable during snuggle sessions! Geriatric dogs and cats with sore muscles and joints especially find relief during pet massage. I'm available to do everything from take care of your dogs and/or cats, take out trash, water plants, pick up mail and packages, and light yard work!

Laura did a fabulous job taking care of our 2 dogs and cat. She was responsive, spend quality time with them and gave them lots of love. I would recommend Laura to others.

Laura is the most dedicated pet sitter we have ever had and goes above and beyond. In fact, I think she loves our cats as much as we do! Recently one of our cats was ill and we were out of the country. She not only look him to the vet several times, but did research on his illness and possible treatments. She stays in our home and I trust her completely. We get just the right amount of pictures and texts while we're gone so that our minds are at ease. Our animals and home are in better shape when we return than when we left! I've come to feel like Laura is part of our extended family!

Laura is an exceptional pet/house sitter. She is very responsible and clearly enjoys walking and playing my two dogs. They enjoy her so much that when she’s next door taking care of my neighbors animals they get highly agitated because they want to go see her. If my dogs could speak they would likely as me to go out of town more often so that they can spend time with Laura.

A typical day

I usually try to do at least 1-2 walks/day when I dog sit and the park 2-3x/week! As Caesar Millan always says, "Exercise, discipline, then affection!" I think this is so important for a healthy, happy dog! And, I already said it, but, I'm a professional massage therapist and I love to cuddle with your dogs (or cats) and give them massage for their achy joints and muscles. They LOVE it! I haven't met one yet who doesn't.
