Happy to walk dogs in any weather!
Pet care experience
I am a former Alaskan guide and a lifelong athlete who is happiest outdoors on a walk or trail run-- especially with a dog. I am also a mom who knows how to love on our furry family members. I want pets to feel safe, cared for, and adored. It is my pleasure to help dogs get the exercise, fresh air, and stimulation that they need. People describe me as dependable, respectful, and communicative. Your dog will be cared for as my own. I do have a dog, but will leave her at home to give yours all the attention. Message me to set up a one-time walk or regular outings, and let me know what you need. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!
Reviews
Daisy loved her trip out with Laurie, she loved how responsive Laurie was to her needs (letting her stop and sniff the roses.) I loved how thorough she was in wanting to get to know Daisy before heading out and how comfortable I feel booking her again.
Laurie was amazing with my elderly parents and their dog. She really loves their pup, sent pictures every day, and Leo was a really happy dog with her! We would recommend her to anyone looking for dog care!!
Laurie is hands down the most responsible human being I have ever known, no exaggeration. She does everything in her life to 110%, loves to get outside and really move, and would sooner eat garbage than disappoint a single employer (or dog owner!). Can’t speak highly enough about Laurie - she’s a true gem and your paws will be in good hands.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or particular behaviors to watch out for. What triggers fear or aggression? Which words and commands does your dog know? What are your dog's favorite activity and form of affection?
A typical day
Based on what your dog likes, we can go on a slow stroll, an exploration with lots of stops for smells, a brisk walk, or a steady jog.
