I love making dogs happy! I love taking them to the 606 trail or to the local dog parks to play with the other doggos as well. I love to give them tons of opportunities to get some good outside sniffs and good exercise!

Pet care experience

I have been pet sitting and walking since I started college! I graduated Grand Valley State University in 2020, and I now can care for pets again since I work from home! I have experience with all types of breeds, sizes, needs and histories. I am also comfortable administering medications if needed! I love animals and do this work on the side because it gives me so much joy!

Laura was the best dog walker for my 80lbs boxer-pit-mutt. My dog benefited greatly getting to go potty during long work days and I could tell he enjoyed his day when I arrived home each time. She was very reliable and flexible when it came to scheduling. All around great experience working with Laura! 10/10 Only reason for canceling is because we’re relocating.

Lora was great and Apollo loved her! She met Apollo for a meet and greet to make sure he was comfortable, followed all walking instructions, and provided pictures/updates about how he did. Would definitely use her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
