About Laura

Experience: 1 yr

Hi there! I go out of my way to help a pet feel comforted and loved when their owner is away. When you can't be there, I do my best to engage your animal because that's how I am naturally, with my own. I've always had pets that I consider part of my family and thoroughly enjoy their quirks and unique personalities. I'll keep your space neat and tidy so that you can have peace of mind, knowing your animals are in good hands while you're away. Some animals need coaxing to eat and to feel safe around a stranger. I find that this trick usually works- when I first arrive. I sit near their bed quietly, let them smell me and get used to my energy. Usually, even the most skittish or shy come around eventually. With the rambunctious ones, I sit until they want to play. I'll give treats, walks and cuddles if your pet will accept them!
