About

Did you know the average doggie daycare fee is $37.50 in the Charlotte metro area and overnight boarding is about $55? That’s almost $100 per day! Please consider me as your pet and/or house sitter. I’ve owned 3 homes, raised 2 girls as a single mom, 3 dogs and 3 cats. I recently retired so can spend 24/7 with your fur babies. I am happy to sit, walk, watch & care for them any day or night for an extended period of time. I’ve been pet and house sitting for 15 years and would love to assist you while you’re traveling. Regarding my Administrative Support services, I worked in the Insurance/Reinsurance/Financial Services industry - in Chicago, Dallas, NYC, Seattle, Bermuda & Charlotte - as a senior executive for over 30 years. I am extremely well-versed in respect of the level of administrative support that professionals demand in order to be successful. If you reach out to me, I will direct you to my LinkedIn page where you can peruse my qualifications. I am happy to work with you remotely or in person.

This was our first time leaving our dog at home. She is elderly and not in the best physical shape. Laura did a great job with giving her meds and making me feel less worried. She sent pictures all weekend!

I really enjoyed having her come take care of our 3 fur babies. She stayed with them for playtime outside, cleaned up pee pads and replaced, leaving the house in great shape. She fed them, as well and made sure they all had plenty to eat. She communicated with us daily and even sent pictures! A definite plus!!! We have already booked her for Thanksgiving weekend and the week after Christmas. We will use her in the future, as well!

Details: Dog • 3 pets • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

She was a true pro. She had an awesome demeanor over the phone and definitely put us at ease over the level of attention she would pay to the tasks. She was jovial and bright-spirited. Our cats litter boxes were in good shape when we returned from our vacation, and they had plenty of food and fresh water. She even texted to check if we would return from our trip as scheduled, just in case she needed to come back by and tend to the cats again. We will definitely be using her services in the future and would highly recommended her to others.

Details: Cat • 2 pets • Giving food and water • Changing litter or bedding • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once in total • My home, venue, etc.
