Genuine Animal Lover

Pet care experience

As I've grown up, there has always been a dog in the house (alongside a variety of other animals sometimes - like fish, hamsters, leopard geckos, hermit crabs). I have experience scooping poop, dealing with car sick dogs, cleaning carpets, cleaning cat litter boxes, and taking care of other's dogs. I have taken care of a dog that needed shots and I have administered pills to dogs as well. I have experience with dogs that really pull when walking and those that need to be steered clear of other dogs. I love to go on walks and love nature so I will be sure to try and take dogs somewhere with grass on walks! I love to play frisbee or catch with dogs and have experience with high energy dogs. I can be stern if that is part of a training regime (only with my voice, I refuse to hit or hurt dogs or any animals in any way as a form of training).

When my pit bull puppy, Ophelia, was only 6 weeks old and needed lots of special attention, Laura watched her all day while we were at Hershey park. Laura’s had dogs most of her life and is super sweet, responsible and trustworthy!

Laura has one of the most gentle spirits and kind hearts that I know. This extends to humans and animals alike. She has grown up with dogs, getting pushed over as a toddler by an enthusiastic boxer who didn’t know his weight in love and all she did was laugh and join him for more romping and snuggles. Laura has cared for a range of neighbors pets from cats and dogs and fish to turtles, chickens and ducks. No animal is too small or too large for her attention. She is trustworthy and dependable and will take extra effort to ensure your pet feels loved and cared for in your absence.

We have known Laura for over 12 years, and during that time we have asked her to walk our dog and pet sit our dog, cat, turtles and other animals on numerous occasions. We have felt very blessed knowing we could trust Laura completely, knowing our beloved pets were in the hands of genuine animal lover. Laura is very responsible and dependable, and we would recommend her to anyone who is fortunate enough to have the chance to work with her.
