Pet care experience
I will house-sit anywhere within 30+ miles of West Plains (current clients are in Mt View, Rover, Caulfield, Ava and Thayer area). I have over 40 years of experience with dogs and other animals. For over 5 years while I lived in Texas, I was a foster home for abandoned and abused dogs, in particular LGD breeds. I also provided transport all over Texas and Oklahoma for rescued dogs of all breeds from minature dashounds to Mastiffs and Great Danes. As a farm owner, I am experienced in basic animal first aid so incoming medical issues don't phase me. I personally have had Pomeranian, Shih Tzus, Lhasa Apso, cocker spaniels, border collies, labrador retrievers, Great Pyrenees, and Anatolian Shepherds. Most were rescues, some were purebred pedigreed animals. All have had permanent homes with me. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities although will admit a particular fondness for the big long-haired breeds.
Reviews

Laurel did another great job for us. Pet care is one thing I never need to worry about during trip planning because I know that Laurel is completely dependable and my cat is familiar with her.

Laurel did another great job for us. She is our #1 go-to caretaker.


Laurel took very good care of our dogs while we were gone. We are so glad we found her.





She treated our animals and us with attention and care.
