Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and communication are very important to me when caring for someone’s pet. For walks and drop in visits in a client’s home, I make sure pets stay on their normal routine, including walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of each client’s home and provide updates/photos so owners feel comfortable while they’re away. In my home, pets are treated like family and safety always comes first. I have a dog of my own, so if I ever accept daycare or boarding requests, it would only be for pets that seem like a good fit, are well-behaved, and get along well with my black lab. I prefer to do a meet and greet beforehand whenever possible to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had dogs of my own, giving me years of hands on experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs through walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and companionship while they’re away. I also grew up with two cats, so I’m comfortable providing cat care, including feeding, litter box cleaning, check-ins, and companionship. While I’m most experienced with dogs, I truly enjoy caring for both dogs and cats. In 2025, I launched WalkWell, a local pet care business focused on reliable, personalized dog walking and pet care services in La Jolla. I currently offer solo and group walks, drop-in visits for dogs and cats, and customized care based on each pet’s unique needs. I’m very active and love spending time outdoors, so I enjoy making sure dogs get the exercise, fresh air, and attention they need whether that’s a neighborhood walk, beach stroll, or simply some extra movement during the day. I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

Laurie was such a great pet friend! We were on a trip in La Jolla and needed a last minute pet friend for our 2 poms. Laurie was easy going, a prefect communicator, and of course cheery and caring to our fur babies. :)
