I could not have been happier about Laura cared for Roscoe (my dog). She shared with me on a daily basis what they were doing and how he was doing. I am certain there was a definite bond made between them. She was absolutely great. Thank you. Cindy

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 12! I am active so I can play with your pup! I am comfortable giving medicine if needed! I’m currently a nursing student who wants to spend my extra time with animals! I am available throughout the week and weekends! My availability differs by week but my calendar is always up to date! I will take your fur-baby on plenty of walks and give them lots of love. I will take them to the bathroom accordingly and follow any instructions given!

About: My name is Laura. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have been a Rover sitter on and off for about 5 years and would love to take care of your fur babies while you are out of town. I have owned several special needs animals and am good at working with animals of all temperments. I have experience dealing with dogs of all ages and sizes. I especially love caring for older dogs who may need a little extra care and attention. I have worked with large groups of dogs and am willing to take care of several at a time if you have a large pet family. I have open availability and would love to play with your dog and make sure they are well taken care of. I have a full time job with flexibility. As long as I have about a weeks notice it should not be a problem to accommodate weekday visits to pets. Weekends are no problem. I like to do an initial house visit with the owner to get an idea of what the house looks like and where the pet is comfortable. If we cannot get a face to face meeting first please message me with detailed care instructions to ensure proper care for your pet.
