Pet care experience
I have helped care for and watch over friends' pets since I was a young teenager. From twice daily checks in on my neighbor's cat to house-sitting for another friend's newly adopted kittens and asking to come back yearly. I have boarded for a friend's senior dog and babysat for a coworker's newly adopted puppy. Chillin' with other people's pets is my thunder dome. I have a three-year-old retriever mix dog named Rufus and sometimes my parents and I will do a dog swap and I get to care for their 10-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog Oly. He's my soul mate! I am currently a full-time student at Bellingham Technical College to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician.
Reviews
Laurel was so great with our young pup, we will definitely be booking her again!
Laurel was amazing for the 7 days of boarding with my dog! It was my first time using rover and I didn’t worry once about his care, she was great at sending updates and photos and my dog was so tired when I came to pick him up from all the walks and play dates. Thank you so much Laurel!!
Friendly and accommodating
Laurel did a great job with my pup Josie. She did an excellent job communicating leading up to and during her stay, keeping me informed with pictures and texts.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a small but fenced-in yard that Rufus loves to zoom around in and chase his toys or laser pointer at night. The railroad trail is just behind my house, perfect for walks of any length. I am also near the Sunnyland Elementary School where Rufus and I love to go play fetch and roll around in the grass. In the summers, the Sudden Valley marina is a MUST to go cool off in the lake and take a ride on my paddle board!
