Availability
I’m working part time before beginning a grad school program in August - my schedule is very flexible, which makes me a great fit whether you have a variable schedule or have the need for a reliable repeat sitter.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have lots of experience with complicated medication and exercise routines for pets. I stay safe on walks and can adjust to many energy and reactivity levels.
Information Laurel T. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any recall (heel, enough, to me) or relief commands (go potty!) those are incredibly helpful to know. I am gaining more experience with heat-sensitive dog and cat breeds, so I appreciate knowing how you keep your pet safe in the summer
A typical day
I love giving dogs “sniffy” walks. While walking quickly can be fun, dogs that get a slower walk with more sniffing time actually come home tuckered out and satisfied. I also enjoy getting dogs safely “riled up” in a fenced yard or open room if they need to get their zooms out. If your cat has one of those fishing pole-like toys, let me at it! If they’re not into it, we can always just hang.

Elder Dog Expert
Pet care experience
I love dogs of all ages, but I adore oldies. I have learned so much in the past 10 years from the four elderly dogs I’ve had the honor to care for. I’d love to be your old dog’s new buddy. I have experience with complicated medication, exercise and other senior dog routine needs: v e r y slow walks, frequent or late-night outings, accidents, nausea, picky eating... I’m experienced comforting dogs who get confused or anxious, and managing multiple older dogs in the home. I have experience with puppies too! I raised guide dogs for the blind for 5 years, and have some basic puppy training/socializing skills.
Cat care experience
Laurel also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Very attentive and adaptive with our unusual pet needs. An absolute delight to work with, highly reliable!
Laurel is a great cat sitter who will care for your kitties so you can get away. They were communicative, helpful, and showed care for both my outgoing cat and the shy cat making sure I got pictures everyday.
Thank you for everything!
Laurel is great. She helped out with our dog even with late notice. Highly recommend!
