Call “MY FAVORITE PET SITTER” ❤️

Pet care experience

Your personal pet and home concierge. You leave them I love them! Everything you’ll ever need to make you and your pet feel Safe, Secure and Loved! Taking care of your pet and also your home when you’re not there. Tailoring all your needs to exact specifications, pets and home because after all, you are the boss! I love all animals, especially dogs! I’ve owned horses as well. Working in a kennel as a 12 year old is where my love for animals began. I have bred and raised Afghan Hounds, Doberman Pinschers, German Shepherds and Chihuahuas, fostered retired Greyhounds and others including Boxers, Retrievers, Collies and shelter rescues. I am able to give medicine, tablets/injections, hang IV bags, senior care, post surgical home care to avoid kenneling or take your pet to the vet. Having extensive knowledge in care/training of toy and giant breeds spanning four decades I also love doing reinforcement command training for working breeds or helping with the new puppy. ( who doesn’t love puppies ❤️ ) While acknowledging every animal isn’t just a pet but part of your family unit, I treat them as such! Tailoring every clients services to their individual needs, going above and beyond to make your family and pet feel safe, comfortable and loved is something I take great pride in. I retired from the medical/dental profession after 37 years and am available most every day. Here’s to a wonderful experience! You had me at WOOF! My schedule centers around my clients since I am retired and am extremely flexible to accommodate almost any day date and time. Weekends and most holiday’s as well. Safety is a number one priority to me. Asking tailored questions to each owner keeps everyone safe. Anticipating the “what ifs” always! Checking fencelines, security of doors, leashes and collars. The owner is Boss, so they make the rules..you can never be too safe, safety is key inside and outside the home!

We had a great experience with Lauri. She spent one hour with us even before we finalized our trip and our decision to use her. She then came back and spent another hour with us getting all of the instructions and information she might need to take care of our dogs. She is very professional, and friendly. She takes her job seriously, asks good questions, and shows she really cares for the clients pets. Lauri went above and beyond in actions on what we expected. We were a new Rover user and Lauri convinced us of the service through what we experienced. I would recommend Lauri to anyone looking at using Rover.

It's always a little bit nerve racking leaving your fur babies and house entrusted to a stranger, but Lauri made it stress-free. She provided constant updates and pictures of my pups, which was greatly appreciated. Your pets will be in great hands in her care. I'll definitely be using her services in the future and would recommend Lauri to anyone!

Lauri was great and kept us updated on Kitty Meow. She is shy and Lauri knew she would never be seen so gave us pictures of the clean box and let us know she had made "appearances" while she was not there. We came home to mail and packages on the table, which was greatly appreciated. Being away from the house and Kitty for a week was less stressful knowing we had someone dropping in to make sure everything was okay. We will use Rover and Lauri's services in the future and would recommend her to our friends and family in the area.

O MY GOODNESS!!! Can't say enough good about Lauri K. she went WAY above and beyond what we expected. Our air conditioner went out 2 days before our vacation, and at the beginning of a heat wave. Laurie kept us informed, stepped up and did what was needful for the welfare of our animal companions. She is professional, concerned and dedicated to customer satisfaction. The animals loved her. Laurie will be our sitter of choice in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is upmost importance to me, checking fence lines, making sure doors are closed so pups can’t escape. Your animals are members of your family, and I treat them as such. I never like to leave animals unattended outside. I always have an eye on them. … I invested in the best background check so you can feel secure and I have plenty of numbers for referrals to make you feel at ease! We know it can be a little daunting to trust someone you haven’t met. Most of my customers end up permanent friends ! 🙌🏻 I have also been in the same community since I was a child.

Information Lauri K. would like to know about your pet

Veterinary information and emergency contacts for pet and home. Knowing special needs, personalities, quirks or traits I should be aware of as well as likes and dislikes. I am familiar with sporting, non sporting breeds, working breeds, small and toy breeds.

A typical day

Local parks for walks or where ever owner deems fit. Playing fetch, Hugs, cuddles and belly rubs. Keeping your pet engaged is Key! Also do training and command reinforcement if owner wishes. Every pet is different, like a human being, their personalities are unique unto themselves so they should be treated as uniquely as they are!
