Tails Will Be Wagging!

Pet care experience

Your furbaby will be treated like one of my own! Hi, I'm Laurie and I would love to meet your 4 legged family member! I have raised and cared for animals of all kinds, breeds, sizes, ages, etc from a very young age. My many years of animal care experience includes owning and caring for animals with special needs (blind and deaf), puppy litters, senior pets, pups with behavior challenges (leash aggression, food guarding, separation anxiety, etc), and medication administration (insulin for diabetes, oral, and topical OTC and prescriptions). Whether caring for my own or when caring for pets of family and friends, your pet will be looked after the way you want without missing a beat. References are available ensuring your fur baby is cared for by a responsible and trusted animal lover of all. I PREFER TO WATCH ONE PUP (OR ANIMALS W IN ONE HOUSEHOLD) AT A TIME. THIS ENSURES YOUR FURBABYS SAFETY, AS OTHER SITTERS WILL ACCEPT MULTIPLE BOOKINGS AT A TIME AND MAY NOT ALWAYS KNOW EVERY PUPS TEMPERMENT AND/OR TOLERANCE TO NEW ANIMALS OUTSIDE THE HOME. YOUR PET WILL HAVE MY UNDIVIDED ATTENTION.

Laurie is a great sitter! She took time to get to know our pup, provided plenty of exercise and play, and sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. Highly recommend!

Laurie was great! I was very nervous about leaving my fur family, so I decided to do a trial run for a night with thoughts of having her watch them for longer next time. Everything was perfect and she was fantastic with the pets. Will definitely use her again! A+ Allison K.

Laurie was awesome with my 7 mo old puppy. She catered to all his needs and even gave me some advise on harnesses and collars. She definitely is a animal lover-it shows when she sees your pet! My puppy loved her and I would definitely hire her again to take care of my baby. She even made sure he felt safe during fireworks. Thank you Laurie for allowing me to have a stress free vacation because I knew Kobe was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend Laurie!!!??

As a consultant, (and student for MBA), I am able to set my own hours and days of the week. This allows for me to schedule you and your furry friend into my daily routine whether its for walks, doggy day care, potty drop in visits, care in your home house sitting, or boarding in my home while you are away. I currently work with a local rescue volunteering and providing emergency foster care when needed.
