Active Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

I have always been drawn to animals of any kind, but I have an extra soft spot for dogs and cats. I was raised with both and have a not so small fur baby myself. I have a bad habit of greeting the dog before the owner and giving a lot of praise. House sitting: Engage with dog at their speed. Frequent potty breaks. Follow feeding instructions. Cuddles or lap time. Water plants for free. Drop-ins: Full play time. Bathroom breaks. Cuddles or lap time. Dog walking: Can do jogs on request for larger dogs. If small ones get tired, they will be carried and spoiled home. I pick up poop. Dogs will return home empty and happy. Let dog set the pace for their walk. (They want to hustle, we hustle. They want to stop and smell all the smells, we stop for all the smells.)

Laurel is a life-long friend of mine and a huge dog lover. She has loved two big dogs in her life (one past away a few years ago, the other living). She loves her dogs like family and they are/were in perfect health and the happiest dogs you'd ever see. I also have a dog and she is a great "auntie" to him and takes wonderful care of him when I am out of town. Laurel it trustworthy, patient, kind, dedicated, and excels at nearly everything she does.

Laurel gets along well with dogs with all kinds of personalities. She understands dog behavior and always remembers that they have instincts and traits that makes them the way they are. She knows how to approach new dogs and how to help introduce a dog to another dog if socialization is appropriate, or to keep the dogs apart if the situation warrants. She has a deep affection for dogs and is an enthusiastic caretaker. She walks her own dog regularly because she realizes exercise and stimulation is an important part of caring for a dog. Laurel also gets along well with people and makes new people who she meets feel at ease.

Laurel has always been great when I asked her to watch my dogs and cat. I have two loud labs and a sassy tabby who all love her. She is a huge dog lover and is very personable. You know your dog is safe with her.
