About
Hi there! My name is Laura and I would love to offer my assistance to pet owners who need help with dog walking and pet sitting. I understand that it can be challenging to find the time to care for your pets while balancing a busy schedule. With almost a decade of experience serving satisfied customers in Pinellas County and the surrounding areas, I have built lasting relationships with families and their pets. My aim is to provide the highest quality of care that I would want for my own animals.

I have a lifelong passion for animals, having grown up caring for my two cats and walking dogs in my neighborhood. I completed my AA locally at St. Petersburg College and have also been an animal caregiver at the Suncoast Primate Sanctuary in Tarpon Springs, attending to a wide range of animals from monkeys and baboons to goats and reptiles. I am experienced in caring for animals of all ages and with various health conditions.

I am empathetic, compassionate, and always prioritize the needs and well-being of the pets that I care for. I even offer additional services such as bringing in the mail, taking out trash, and watering plants. I am flexible with my schedule and try my best to accommodate my clients. I also enjoy sending daily text updates with photos and videos of the pets in my care.

Lastly, I would like to address that I frequently receive messages from people outside of my service range, which can be difficult for me to respond to due to service provider fees. Please be mindful of my location and travel restrictions when messaging me, but know that I will always do my best to respond and provide excellent service. Thank you for considering me!

She demonstrated her understanding of dogs and their unique requirements by sending pictures of her walk and asking thoughtful questions during the introduction. Furthermore, she is capable of walking two large dogs.

Laura is an amazing caretaker for my two boys and has been helping me consistently since September 2020. I have two dogs - a senior one and a younger one - and she treats them with individual attention and care as if they were her own pets. During her visits, she provides me with updates and pictures of their daily activities and any concerns she may have noticed while looking after them. Her communication is excellent, and she goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of my dogs. Although I've expressed my gratitude many times, she continues to do more than what is expected of her. She even surprised my dogs with toys on one occasion. Laura has a kind heart and is committed to providing excellent care for animals. I got to know Laura through a friend who hired her for their pets, and she grew fond of my dogs when she met them. When I requested her assistance, she readily agreed to help. Her fees are reasonable, given the quality of the services she provides. I'm thrilled that she has a regular schedule with my pets, and they eagerly anticipate her visits. I wouldn't consider accepting an offer from someone else who could offer the same services for less because Laura's level of care is unmatched.

Working with Laura was a delightful experience. Before her scheduled visit, she came to my home to get to know Polly's requirements and ensure a smooth walk. Laura was punctual and attentive to Polly's preferences during the 1PM and 6PM walks. Additionally, she checked up on Polly at 9PM to ensure her wellbeing. We arrived home simultaneously with Laura and had the opportunity to catch up on her day. It was a pleasure collaborating with Laura, and we were exceedingly content with her dedication.

Dudley's walks were made joyful with Laura's help. As we took on the responsibility of dog-sitting our grand furry friend, we sought her assistance which she provided in a highly professional manner. Dudley was always ecstatic to see her arrive, which speaks volumes of her pleasant demeanor. We certainly plan on enlisting her services the next time we pet-sit.

Laura is simply amazing! Not only is she exceptionally kind and loving towards Kovu, but she also brings immense blessings into our lives. Over time, we have come to think of her as family and it's clear that Kovu feels the same. Their bond is truly heartwarming!
