About
I have been in the pet industry for over 20 years, started my pet sitting business in 1999 and am also involved in pet rescue. I have provided many hours working with pet rescue organizations, pet placement and have personally rescued animals off the streets that have been discarded, abandoned and or neglected and found them new, loving forever homes. I am an approved bottle foster feeder with City shelters and have worked with newborn puppies and kittens and am also experienced in administering subcutaneous fluids and working with senior and/or disabled pets with special needs for over 10 years. Critter Care is licensed and has been in business since November 1999 and also a proud member of Pet Sitters International since 2002. I am passionate about pets and enjoy being around them at all times. Pets provide unconditional love. I am also involved in pet rescue and it's so gratifying and rewarding to know that because I offer daycare services, temporary boarding and fostering for pets that are on death row at the shelters, it gives them an opportunity at a second chance at life.

Laurie did an excellent job of caring for our pets while we were away on vacation. She definitely went above and beyond to make sure that all of the dogs were happy and she provided frequent communication reassuring us the everything was taken care of. I would highly recommend the service of Critter Care for anyone looking for in-home or distance pet sitting!

I hired Laurie a couple weeks ago to check in on my cat Zappa. From our first meeting I knew she was not only an animal lover but someone that prides herself on giving excellent service. She is very easy to talk too ,listens, took notes and went over and above on her visits. She sent me pictures and text messages with updates. I have a cat that can be shy and from day one Zappa was comfortable with Laurie. She takes care of all her needs, cleaned up and spent time with Zappa, not just a drive by sitter! I would highly recommend Laurie for all your pet needs!! Karen Zumwalt

Laurie was awesome! All my animals loved her! She was even able to handle my bird, Zelda (everyone else is afraid of her)! I've used her twice now and will for sure use her again! Very through!

I recently had the opportunity to work with Laurie and she is amazing. He watched my cat while I was away and it quite a weight off my shoulders not having to worry. She truly loves animals and they love her. I would definitely use her again an refer to my friends.

I was so glad that critter Care and Laurie especially answered my call for bids. She is really and experienced and beyond the word dependable. I have 6 cats and two deserts tortoise to maintain so she really has to work for her money. By the way I have hired her before so I am a very happy repeat customer.
