Pet care experience
Hello hello!! I have been a pet sitter and a dog walker ever since I was kid growing up in the Pacific Northwest helping out my neighbors, and have adored animals as long as I can remember. I truly believe pets make us all better people! I myself have a very anxious border collie mix, and have spent the last couple of years training her to relax and trust me. I am patient, calming, and have e-collar experience if you choose to use one! With owning a high energy working breed dog - dog training was a high priority for me. I’ve learned a lot of skills and can happily take on younger pups or dogs that need a bit of extra support and time.
Reviews
Very responsive! Provides great pics. I’m more than impressed with the service.
Laurel was awesome! Super easygoing and communicative. I would totally recommend her.
Can’t decide which Rover sitter to care for your pup? Don’t deal with internal quarrel. Just call Laurel! Really though. She’s top notch. I feel at ease knowing my little guy is in good hands with her. She took great interest in my dogs individual needs and went above and beyond to make him happy and comfortable. My only concern is that I may not be my dogs favorite human anymore. But in this instance that’s a problem I’m happy to have. 10/10 recommend.
Laurel was a wonderful dog walker for my 6 month old puppy, Otto. She provided great photos and kept me updated throughout their time together. Cannot say enough good things about her!

Safety, trust & environment
I try to keep a similar as possible routine that keeps your pet feeling comfortable and at home. Making sure your pet gets the companion attention it needs as well as exercise and stimulation is a priority!
Information Laurel Y. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog aggressive and/or fearful? How is your dog’s recall skills? How is your dog with strangers, other dogs, and kids? Is there a favorite dog park or park you usually go nearby?
A typical day
Fetch, playing with toys, recall training, enrichment activities, etc.! I really enjoy walking dogs and training them to walk beside and communicate with me! I find that the training of focusing can help with energy control as well. I love to walk (I’m sure your dog and I have that in common) and feel lucky that we live in an area with amazing parks and views!

I currently work full time at home. On my lunch breaks, between meetings, or slower periods at work, I am able to step away to care for your pet by visiting or taking the crew out for a walk around the neighborhood!
