Greetings! My name is Laura and I have had dogs, cats, fish, frogs, turtles, rabbits, and hermit crabs since my childhood. I love animals! And I love to see them happy. If you are looking for someone for long walks and/or long sessions of petting, I am ready for the task! I have particular experience with pill regiments and dogs and cats that require special care and attention. I work from home, so your furry family member will get loads of time and attention. I also live next to a few different parks, so walks will be always be new and exciting. (One caveat, I have a lot of stairs in my home, so unless your dog is small and I can carry him or her, make sure stairs will not be a problem for your pet.) I know the anxiety of leaving your pet with a stranger--I have cried occasionally saying goodbye!--but I can assure you, your pet will get a lot of love and a lot of sympathy when they miss you. I will take care of your furry family member while you are away! A few things: I can only take potty trained dogs and cats. Please bring everything your pet may need, including food, treats, favorite chew toys, and a leash and collar. Please drop your dog washed and fully groomed. No dirty dogs please!
