Pawsitive Destiny

65, Retired Network Designer

Hi!  My name is Laurie, I am 65, solo traveller and very interested in caring for your home & pets like I was their favorite auntie! I have been House/pet sitting since 2022 as a member of Trusted Housesitters and have enjoyed meeting sweet fur kids in Canada, Italy and New Zealand. I am very clean, responsible, quiet and will leave your home as I found it. When I accept a sit, I spend almost the whole time with your pet and do my exploring on days when I don't have your pet to snuggle.

  I am from Alberta Canada, but I have been travelling since Feb 2024 and have been exploring the USA, Europe the UK and now New Zealand.  I have 3 German Shepherd Dogs, a cat & 2 horses at the 80 acre farm I enjoyed for 25 years, where my ex-husband does a wonderful job of keeping them happy & healthy. I miss my doggie, kitty & equine energies!  I have also had fish, lizards, turtles, cows, hamsters, chickens and birds as pets. I am retired from an interesting career in Network Design and (on the side) a certified Mentor/Trainer for Animal Behavior College (certified horse, dog, & cat trainer and training trainers).  I believe all animals learn through positive experiences and understanding the body language they give us.  I am all about catching them doing something right and having a party about it.

If you think I am suitable to snuggle your fur kids and/or house, let me know!

Laurie was the best Housesitter we could have asked for. We felt super lucky to have connected with her. She genuinely loved our pets and cared for our home and garden like it was her own and went above and beyond expectations. We had regular updates and photos which we looked forward to and loved.
