About Laurie

I work remotely on a laptop, so I can either come to your home, or welcome your pet into mine! I don't drive, but I am very used to walking and taking public transit everywhere. I used to pet-sit full-time but had to stop as I moved across the country and focused on my career. I would love nothing more right now than to get back into pet sitting and fill the need of having animals in my daily life. My pet-care skills & values: - Experience and patience with training and handling "bad" behaviors. I don't believe in using violence/fear as punishment. My job as a pet parent/sitter is to understand and divert them from unwanted behaviors while reinforcing the "good" ones. - I consider animals' personality and needs, and work to make them feel as comfortable as possible! - I'm not a professional trainer, but I love to learn and adapt. If you're working on a desired behavior or trick, I will happily continue that regimen!
