Pet care experience

Hi my name is Laurie/Laura. I am 26 years old, married and a new home owner! Most recently, My husband and I were living in Boston where he was finishing up school. We are so excited to be back in Michigan! He is originally from here and I went to Michigan state (Go Green!!) I want to have some four legged friends to be with me during my sometimes boring work days. I am a yoga instructor so I’m never gone from the house for too long! I love to cuddle with pups, like I did with my own. We will go out on lots of walks and go to the parks near my house (including a dog park!!). Your pup will have all the attention they need :) I am able to administer any medicines your dog may need, as I use to have a cat with diabetes. What ever your pet care needs are, I am your gal! *Pictures and contact upon request*

I am delighted to write a review of Laurie as a dog walker. She walked my dog Lanza for several years and I couldn't be happier with the quality of care that she provided. Laurie is a fantastic dog walker who truly loves and understands dogs. She is caring, responsible, and trustworthy, and I feel confident leaving Lanza in her capable hands. What sets Laurie apart is the genuine care and affection she has for Lanza. She truly goes above and beyond to ensure that he is happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I'll never forget the day when Laurie told me that she had to move away. She cried as she said goodbye to Lanza and it was clear to me that she had developed a deep bond with him. It was heartwarming to see how much she cared about him and how dedicated she was to providing him with the best possible care. Laurie's personalized approach to dog walking is also noteworthy. She takes the time to get to know each dog's personality, preferences, and needs, and she tailors her walks and care accordingly. Lanza always comes back from his walks with a big smile on his face and I know that he has been well-exercised and well-cared for. I highly recommend Laurie to anyone who is looking for a caring and responsible dog walker. She is a true professional who goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of the dogs in her care, and I am so grateful to have had her in Lanza's life. Thank you, Laurie, for your exceptional service, your caring heart, and your dedication to your clients

Laura is a responsible and fun pet care provider! She has always responded to my requests in a timely manner and communicated updates about my pet throughout their stay with her. I know my dog is in good hands when I leave them with Laurie and that peace of mind is priceless.

Laurie was fantastic with Molly! She was so sweet and friendly meeting Molly, getting down low to say hi, lots of pets and scratches. Molly had an excellent time at their place, lots of walks, play time, practicing tricks, and I was able to get updates whenever asked / occasional photos from Laurie. Would be more than happy to have Laurie watch Molly anytime and Molly would love that too!

This is a difficult review to write because I do not think I would ask Laurie to watch my dog again. We went to Europe for 2 weeks and during that time I got 2 photos and 2 written updates, for a total of 3 contacts. And I texted and asked for 2 of those updates because I was not hearing from her. My dog was on daily meds, which I believe were given as required. My dog came home healthy. I just expected daily updates as I was lead to believe rover provides.

Information Laurie R. would like to know about your pet

I must know their feeding schedule and if they take any medications. I will always give your dog the appropriate medication needed. I also will need to know if you would like daily pictures or contact. I want your time away to be stress free and I say no news is good news! But happy to send whatever you want ?

A typical day

There any many parks near my house! There is a dog park not even a mile away, would make for a some great fun! I would take your dog on multiple walks a day for both of us to exercise and get out any extra energy.
