Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full time Monday–Friday from 8–4, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. I also have holidays and summers off, which gives me plenty of flexible time for daytime walks, drop-ins, and longer stays when needed.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I maintain a safe, structured environment by following your pet’s routine exactly as you outline it. In your home, I respect your space, secure doors and gates, and keep all food, treats, and cleaning supplies out of reach. I monitor pets closely during walks and use sturdy leashes and proper equipment. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind.

Information Laurie K. would like to know about your pet

Any and all information to ensure their safety, comfort, and happiness (e.g. basic information, health and medical, behavior and personality, feeding and diet, routine and schedule, and safety and emergency.

A typical day

Walks & Outdoor Adventures – Exploring local parks, trails, or just the neighborhood. Some pets love sniffing new spots or chasing a ball. Playtime & Games – Tug-of-war, fetch, hide-and-seek, or puzzle toys that challenge their brains. Cuddles & Relaxation – Snuggle time, gentle brushing, or tummy rubs for pets who love attention. Socialization (if safe) – Meeting other friendly pets for supervised playdates.

Pet care experience

I don’t just watch dogs—I get to know them. Whether it’s helping puppies learn the ropes or giving senior pups slow, cozy care, I tailor every visit to what your dog actually needs. I’m patient, upbeat, and love turning training moments into fun games. I pay close attention to each dog’s unique needs, energy level, and personality—because great care isn’t one-size-fits-all. And yes, I’m the sitter who celebrates every tail wag like it’s an achievement.

Very good care for our 4 senior age indoor cats. Nya, Marley, Simon and Bambi are healthy, fed and content.

The best!! Communicated the whole time and the dogs loved her! Played fetch and the dogs felt completely comfortable with her. Will be my dogs sitter anytime I’m away! Highly recommend!

Laurie is a lovely, responsible pet caregiver. I have known her for many years and she has cared for my pets as well as my own children (who love her)! She has cared for my home and animals while we have been out of town and we have always come home to a clean, welcoming home with happy, satisfied fur babies! I can’t recommend Laurie enough. We would move her in if we could!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received. Laurie took wonderful care of all three of my dogs—including my senior pup who needed regular injections and another who struggles with anxiety and required oral medication. Everything was handled calmly, confidently, and with so much compassion. She also cared for my bird, making sure feeding was consistent and the environment stayed clean and comfortable. Even my koi fish were fed properly and monitored with attention to detail. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing every one of my animals—from dogs to bird to fish—was in such capable, trustworthy hands. I highly recommend her pet-sitting services!
