Stay-at-Home Mom & Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I am a stay-at-home mom to a 6 & 4 year old, so your pup will get lots of love and attention staying at our home! We currently have a 6 lb shih tzu & a cat, so my kids know very well how to be gentle with pets and when to give them space. Prior to being a mom, I used to run a non-profit coordinating and providing in-home pet care to elderly individuals, so I have over a decade of experience working with a variety of pets and their needs. Prior to that, I was a long-time volunteer at the Larimer Humane Society. Your pet will be in good hands in our home, and we'll treat them like part of the family. Your dog would need to be good with kids, other dogs, and cats. If our dogs aren't loving each other, it would be easy to have my dog stay upstairs and your dog stay downstairs, but it would be more difficult to keep the cat separated if your dog doesn't like cats.
Reviews
Laurel was great, our dogs loved her and her family. She also kept us updated which was great. We’d have no hesitation recommending her!
Laurel is amazing with animals! She has cared for hamsters, rats, chinchillas, rabbits, fish, birds, cats and dogs. She is extremely knowledgeable about animal health and safety and she’s soooo sweet. My dogs and cats absolutely adore her! I can’t recommend Laurel enough.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around! We can also take them for walks, as needed! They are allowed to cuddle with us on the couch and can even sleep on the foot of the bed if that's where they would be most comfortable! My dog is elderly and needs medication, so I am comfortable with administering medication to your dog too, if needed.

Information Laurel G. would like to know about your pet
I would love to hear about how you think your dog would handle being around kits, a cat, and an elderly dog- just to make sure this sounds like a good fit for everyone. Also, is your dog on a specific schedule that you'd like me to continue?
A typical day
We are outside in the back yard a lot, and we would love to have your pup come join us to play! They can lounge in the sun or hand out under the shaded patio- or we can give them some exercise with a fun game of fetch or a walk around the neighborhood!
Services
Laurel can host
Availability
Me and the kids are home all day except for short play dates and errands here and there, but we can work around your pets needs!
