Hi, I’m writing to refer Laurie for dog sitting/walking/boarding on Rover. She would be great for any dog owner looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and deeply caring caretaker. My mom has been around dogs her entire life and has owned them for decades. She’s comfortably handled everything from small breeds like miniature pinschers to big, strong dogs like pit bulls. She knows how to give each dog exactly what they need — whether it’s gentle play and potty training for puppies or patient, loving care for senior dogs with mobility issues or health concerns. Beyond her hands-on experience, she’s genuinely one of the most loving and patient people I know. Dogs quickly become part of the family when she’s caring for them. She’s attentive, responsible, and truly enjoys spending time with animals — going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well-loved. I would trust her completely with my own dogs (and have many times), and I’m confident any pet parent would feel the same peace of mind leaving their furry family member in her care. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like any more details. She’s a true dog lover and would be a fantastic addition to the Rover community!

I highly recommend Laurie as a dog walker and pet caregiver on Rover. She has been around dogs for her entire adult life and has experience caring for both large and small breeds with a wide range of personalities and needs. As the devoted owner of an 11-year-old pitbull, she understands the importance of consistency, patience, and attentive care. She walks her dog daily and is experienced in adapting to different energy levels, from playful pups to senior dogs who need a gentler approach. She is also comfortable following specific routines and instructions to ensure every pet feels safe and cared for. Beyond her experience, she is incredibly responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals. She treats every dog as if they were her own, providing them with the attention, affection, and exercise they need.

Laurie is the best! She cares for my Marley like he was her own dog. She always takes him on long walks, like he loves, and is so patient with him. Marley is a senior dog who eats at a slow pace and also won't eat unless someone else is in the room with him. Laurie always makes the time to sit with him until he finishes his meals, which i greatly appreciate! I will always trust Laurie with Marley and any other dog i will have in the future.

I highly recommend Laurie as a dog sitter and caregiver. She is one of the most caring, dependable, and compassionate people I know, and her love for animals is evident in everything she does. Laurie treats every dog as if it were her own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. She is attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means sticking to a routine, providing extra attention and affection, or making sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime. Beyond her natural connection with animals, Laurie is responsible, trustworthy, and reliable. Pet owners can have peace of mind knowing their dogs are in capable and caring hands. Any dog would be lucky to spend time with her, and I would not hesitate to trust her with my own pets. I wholeheartedly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a loving and dependable caregiver for their dog.

I have known Laurie my entire life and every animal she's ever cared for has been loved from the start. Laurie is attentive to the animals needs and makes sure they have nothing but the best. Laurie makes sure any pet is enjoying their time while keeping them safe so there is no worries while we are away. I'd recommend her time and time again!

As long as I’ve known Laurie, she has always been a dog lover, animal lover. She truly cares about the animals, sometimes she didn’t even want to leave the house and go somewhere if she thought the dog looked sad and would be lonely. She’s always concerned about their well-being & how well they are taken care of. She had a miniature pinscher for 14 years and has had a pitbull for 11. Both two different types of dogs, both well loved. I think Laurie would be a great match for Rover pet parents You would know for sure if she’s going to be there to take care of your animal and give it all the love and attention it needs for the time being she’s there making sure that they’re fed ,walked and happy before she leaves
