About Laurinda J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Currently, I don't have any pets in my household, besides two cats that I allow in for feeding and sometimes sleeping at night or when the weather is bad. They usually prefers to be outside. I take my disabled mom's dogs out every evening, so it's like I have 3 dogs. Although, they don't live with me.

Information Laurinda J. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. I'd like to make special accommodations or meet preferences and your dog's specific needs.
A typical day
The nearby park, trails in Cameron Park, the Brazos riverwalk, or around downtown, and Heritage Square are some of the places where dogs and I enjoy walking. I learn about your expectations and your your dog's fitness level. Based on that, I determine how long to walk, if we'll be taking frequent breaks, or if I'll be picking up the dog (smaller or senior dogs) periodically as we walk to prevent stress. I have special treats made with boiled chicken and rice or beef and rice. Most store bought treats have unhealthy additives, so I prefer to avoid them.

Your Fur-baby's Favorite Auntie!
Pet care experience
I consider myself a "mother of nature," because no matter what what kind of animal it is I am a natural at nurturing everything from fur-babies to feathered friends. I grew up with dogs, and I've always helped my disabled mom with her 4, now senior, dogs (two pitties, a rat terrier, and a chiweenie.) I love taking them on nature walks, and I even cook chicken or ground beef and rice for them, and use holistic remedies to keep them in top shape for their ages (15+). Animal rescue also comes naturally, because I feel humans are meant to be the keepers of the earth. Every night I feed a colony of stray cats and their neighbors (raccoons, opossums, and ducks.) 😁💖 It's a joy to me to help and have fun with cats and dogs, because I love animals. That's why I'm your fur-baby's favorite auntie!
Reviews



Laurinda did wonderfully playing with our cats, feeding them, and monitoring their health while we were away!



AWESOME THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IVE EVER USED A SITTER NOT FAMILY AND I HIT THE JACKPOT Laurinda J is one of a kind my 3 babies loved her she took excellent care sent pictures and videos I didn’t worry at all I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER I now will not worry when I need a sitter going forward

Laurinda was so sweet with our baby dog! Kept us updated and sent pictures of our dog doing well. We knew our pup was in good hands. I would totally book again.




Laurinda has been wonderful and we are so fortunate to have her as our weekly pet caregiver. She helped find Chubbs, our senior dog (12 years old) when he ran away and was missing a night and a day. Thanks again Laurinda!
