Safety, trust & environment

I have one cat that is an only child so I won't be able to bring your fur baby over to board but I will gladly come to your home and keep them company while you are away. I am clean and organized.

Information Laurel S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animal has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. I do not have a preference for breeds and am open to caring for any and all animals.

A typical day

I want to provide your animal with love and care while you are away. We'll play games, walk around and check out all the smells in the neighborhood, or if they rather just chill and be pampered - that can happen too!

Pet care experience

I'm a lifelong animal lover and have affection for all furry friends! I enjoy the company of all different dogs and cats, as well as making them and their owners happy! I personally have a cat whom I love as much as I would a person- you can call me a "crazy cat lady" but I still love some quality dog time. While watching your fur baby I will treat them as my own. I want my clients to feel comfortable with me watching their fur baby and to have open communication with me if they have special requests or adjustments. I want to make sure you have peace of mind while you are away from your animal. I can guarantee that your fur baby is in good hands if you choose me as your sitter/walker.

Laurel was amazing with my cat, Mr. Troubles! She sent great updates and many pictures. Mr. Troubles seemed to really like his new sitter. This was my first time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving her with my fur baby! I needed a last minute sitter and she was very fast to respond. Thank you Laurel!

Laurel was awesome with our senior dog and younger cat! She’s caring, trustworthy, and sweet. She sent us lots of photos and gave us helpful updates. Our animals had a great time. Thanks Laurel!

Laurel has watched my cat, Rufio, many times now. She’s very responsive even to last minute requests and always keeps me updated and sends lots of pictures. When she has time, she’ll often stay longer than required to give Rufio some extra snuggles and play time, which I really appreciate. She’s definitely Rufio’s favorite cat sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
