Pet care experience

I am 56 years old and have been an animal caregiver for at least 40 of those years from rescuing to fostering and working both as a small animal and large animal emergency veterinary technician. I've managed large thoroughbred farms and private equestrian facilities, where I designed a state of the art swimming facility for both large and small animals for rehab from injuries and for conditioning. My passion runs deep for animals and they get the best of care that I can provide. Your dogs will be in a country rural setting where they can play with other dogs in a secured fenced area that's about a 1/2 acre and can enjoy walks on the farm. I hope you consider my services, Thank you

I have worked with Laurie in the past and she is very passionate about what she does. She loves animals and takes pride in caring for them. Laurie is good with animal care. She also has previous experience in a veterinary clinic. Overall, she would make a good addition to your company and caregiver for your clients pets.

Laurie is a wonderful person as well as a huge animal lover. I have worked with her and she did go above and beyond to care for the animals! She is a great person!

Where do I begin? Laurie has taught me so much about the things I can do to care for my animals. Her knowledge base is endless. I have seen her selfless acts first hand. Her heart is so big when it comes to the love for animals. She is the only person I know that without a blink of an eye or even a second thought would stop to help an animal in need. She has an extensive knowledge base when it comes to animals from horses to kittens and I’m sure more than I am completely aware of. She recently rescued Sweetie found wondering the streets on the brink of death. She saved her that night and was her biggest advocate. I’ve seen Laurie in action and have been by her side to experience her love , knowledge and expertise when it comes to caring for animals. I have and will entrust her with my animals especially dogs.

I have known Laurie for over 10 years. She has been a care giver to my horses in that period of time. She is trustworthy, kind, considerate and has the animals best interest at heart. Her care is above and beyond what most of us would even consider appropriate. I would gladly leave any animal that I own in her care and never worry for a second.... Laurie is knowledgeable and if she isn’t sure of something she will do the research required to find an answer. I just wish she lived closer so I could have her working for me on my farm.....
