Hey Everyone!

Thank you for all the recent inquiries that have been coming through! I haven't been able to get around to contacting everyone back just yet as unfortunately I am sick with the flu at the moment 🤧 as soon as I am back to being fighting fit I'll be replying to all your inquiries.

Thank you so much for your understanding ❤️

Hey Everyone!
Just wanted to give you an update on how my services work during the COVID-19 levels;

- For health and safety reasons, my services will only operate during Levels ONE and TWO.

- As Auckland is currently in Level Four Lockdown I will not be taking any further bookings at this stage until it is clear when we will be moving down levels and what this will look like.
Please if you have any questions do not hesitate to send me a message 😊

Stay safe and healthy everyone!
Laura ❤️🐾

As of April 1st 2021 there will be some slight price changes coming into affect for the “overnight pet sitting” rates.

Hi Everyone!

As we are now in Level 3 this means that all pet sitting bookings that coincide with the level changes, will NOT be able to go ahead.

If COVID-19 Does affect your booking and I am no longer able to pet sit for you, you will of course be offered a full refund of all payments made thus far.

Please if you have any questions, do not hesitate to send me a message, I’ll be happy to help!

Stay safe everyone! 🥰🐾

How cute is Popeye!? 😍

I had the pleasure of looking after this absolute sweetheart this weekend and it’s safe to say he absolutely lapped up the cuddles 🥰 and look how well he sits for a treat!? 🤩

For all prices of services being offered, check out the “Services” tab of Pet Sitting with Laura’s page 😊🐾

Recently I had the absolute pleasure of looking after some of our regular attendees, “The Three!” Or individually known as, Tiny, Lily and Ants!

These three have some of the sweetest little personalities I’ve ever seen!

🐾 Mr Tiny always has one favourite ball that he loves to play with and when you throw it for him, he does a cute little bark of determination when he runs for it! 🤣

🐾 Miss Lily is the cuddliest little dog I’ve ever met and will curl up in your arms for as long she pleases for cuddles 🥰

🐾 Mr Ants is actually 14 years old! Even though he loves to sleep most of the day, when the food is around, he certainly doesn’t mess around, and is the first to the food bowl! 😋

Just to let everyone know I am fully booked out for all weekends in the month of January!

There are still weekday spots available but please be aware that daily check up options are limited as I work full time now as well but overnight stays are always an option! 🙌🏼

Hello Everyone and Happy New Year 🥳

I hope you all had a safe, merry Christmas and a fun New Years!

Thank you all for an amazing 2020! 🎉
Back in June, I started this business, expecting to gain no more than perhaps 200 likes/follows on this page and a very small client base but you have all proven me wrong and instead my page is close to 700 likes and I have a lovely wide client base which is amazing because I get to meet all of you lovely pet owners and your furry pals 🐾 so thank you all so much for your support of my small business and I can’t wait to meet more of you in 2021! 🥳

Please bare with me while I do respond to all the inquiries I received while I was away, and book in meet and greets with you all over the next week or so ☺️

Here’s a photo of one of the lovely dogs I got to see regularly over my break with her new favourite toy she got from Santa for Christmas 😝🎅🏻

Hey Everyone!

Pet Sitting with Laura is still up and running as usual!
Nowadays I am a little bit slower to reply as I now work full time but I do try my hardest to get back to everyone as soon as possible, so please bear with me! 🥰

Recently I had the pleasure of looking after a good friend's three cats and her adorable little Shihzu, named Chandler after the character 'Chandler Bing' from Friends!
While she was away I was able to take him for his grooming appointment at the amazing Cams Dog Grooming and doesn't he look just gorgeous!? 😍
We then took a short drive to Paremuka Lake for a lovely stroll to finish off the day ☀️🐾

Heading out of town and need your pets to be looked after while you're away? Get in touch today to book an obligation-free meet and greet 😃

Hey Everyone!

If you’ve been following my page for a while now, you’ll know that I originally started this business to meet a clear pet sitting need in West Auckland but also as an extra income stream for me as I was only working part time.

However, as of recently I have been offered a promotion for a full time position which I’m very excited to be taking on 🥳

So what does this mean for Pet Sitting with Laura? This simply means that from now on;

- Daily Check Up services will be limited
- at least TWO WEEKS NOTICE is required for ALL bookings, including Overnight Stays and Daily Check Ups

Thank you so much for your continuous support of my small business! 🤩💞

Hey Everyone!

I hope you’re all settling back into level one happy and healthy!

Now that we are back into level one, I have an announcement to make! DECEMBER and JANUARY bookings are now open!
HOWEVER, Pet Sitting with Laura will be taking a two-week hiatus between December 21st and January 5th. Every other date during December and January is available to book.

I understand that this may come as an inconvenience to some and I deeply apologize to those affected, however, I'm sure that we have all had our share of challenges this year with COVID-19 in our community and I ask for your understanding, as we all need a break sometimes ❤️

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, I look forward to hearing from you all soon! 🐾😊

His name Is Tui and he is a super cuddly rescue cat from Lonely Miaow that I have the pleasure of doing Daily check ups for this week! 😁

Hey Everyone!

I'm sure you’re all just as happy as I am that we are back into level 2 now! Just wanted to give you a quick update;

- I am now taking bookings for September, October and November.
- Prior to any meet and greets I will be asking you privately a couple of COVID related questions just to make sure we can all stay safe and healthy!

And just a reminder, I am booking up fast now that holidays are being rescheduled etc, so please where possible provide as much notice as you can when you would like to make a booking - one week's notice is minimum but the more notice, the more likely you are to have your dates secured 😃

Thanks everyone, stay safe! 🐾

Is this not one of the cutest puppy's you've ever seen!? 😍

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of looking after this gorgeous little 18-week old bull terrier puppy named Lifer! 🐾

Whilst we only had a short time together, we had lots of playtime - and of course some nap time too! - and went for a lovely walk in the sunshine! ☀️

Are you also planning on going away for a weekend or longer? Not sure what to do about your fur babies while you're away? Enquire today about Pet Sitting with Laura's overnight stay services 😁

Needing a getaway from all the winter hustle and bustle but not sure what to do about your pets while you're away?
Look no further than Pet Sitting with Laura! 🐾

Another two fur babies I'm looking after this week while their owners are on a little family holiday is Zapy and Scruffy!
These two are loving having the company of someone to sit on the couch and cuddle with them in the evenings and their exciting park walks during the day!

If you're looking for a bit more than just half an hours comfort for your pets, make an inquiry today about Pet Sitting with Lauras overnight stay options 😃

**Dog-walking is not currently offered as an individual service**

It's been a busy weekend for Pet Sitting with Laura!
One of the lovely pets I have had the pleasure of visiting this week was little miss Tippee! 🐾

While her owner is away for the weekend, I have been doing 'Two Daily Check-ups' for her to give her breakfast and dinner, check her water, play with her and of course give her lots of love and affection while her owner is unable to.

Think this is the service for you while you're away? Make an inquiry now 😃

21/06/2020

You have all blown me away with the amount of support you have given me and I am so incredibly appreciative!

Much to my surprise within the first 4 days of launching my business, I have been absolutely inundated with messages in regards to pet sitting and I just wanted to clarify a few things for everyone!

1) I am currently only taking bookings for June, July, August and September… once we get into July I will open up my bookings for October and will continue on in this process as the months go on.

2) For those who have already made inquiries for December, January and February next year, prior to this announcement, I will put all of your names onto a waiting list and when bookings open for these months, I will contact you all directly to let you know

3) I am currently writing up a price list for multi-pet households and will make a post as soon as this becomes available

4) And lastly, I am currently in the process of finalising my Cancellation and Deposit Policies for bookings and as soon as this is done, it will be available for everyone to view and refer to

Thank you all again so much for your continued support, I cant wait to meet you and all of your fur babies soon!
