I am American (from Madison, Wisconsin, then a few years in NYC, and a few months in South Beach Miami) and I left there in 2006. After 9 months of living my dream of traveling and living around Australia, I spent one year in New Zealand also traveling and living in different places. I worked in hospitality, tourism and many casual jobs during this time. I have since lived in Sydney, Australia for just over 10 years and time flies! In the last few years I've worked as a Recruiter for tech companies. I will be leaving here within the next few months to travel and then settle somewhere else in the world. I like slow travel or living somewhere, taking time to really get to know a place and understand the culture, so house and pet sitting is the perfect mix!

Why I want to house sit

I can take care of your pets and your home with great care as if they were my own. Animals seem to gravitate to me and know that I love them. They are so amazing and really make people happy and are always there for their owners, so I think it's important to provide good care for them in their own home even when you cannot be there. I travel as much as possible and house sitting is a great way to extend a trip longer as well as feeling like a local and experiencing what it would be like to live in that area. I have a lot of work to do online as well as always have books I'd like to read, so I am happy to spend a lot of quality time at your home keeping your pets company.

My experience

I have always loved animals and travel, as well as experiencing how other people live around the world. I grew up with a cat and hamsters, I have petsat for friends dogs and cats, had flatmates with dogs and cats, and look forward to having a dog of my own someday. I've worked on a dude ranch (horses) in Colorado, a cattle station outside of Alice Springs, Australia and a sheep farm in New Zealand. I am full of energy running around playing with dogs and am chilled out and cuddly with cats. I have lived alone for the past 5 years and before that have lived with many different flatmates in Australia, New Zealand and around the United States, so I know how to keep a place clean and tidy. I'm organised, reliable, adaptable and can be flexible to your needs. This site is a great way for us all to help each other out!

    Laura came to stay with Sloany over a hot, busy Christmas and New Year in Melbourne, and was so, so wonderful :)
    Laura was really easy to get in touch with and communicate with, flexible with timing and dates and relaxed with handover instructions. She sent me photos and updates of my very, very happy cat daily and didn't mind that my kitchen was rubbish ;)
    I returned to a very tidy house, healthy houseplants and an extremely satisfied Sloany: thank you so much, Laura!!

    Laura is an intelligent, upbeat, and absolutely trustworthy person whom I can highly recommend! About 15 years ago, not knowing Laura well at all, I took a chance and rented her a room in my home in NYC. She was a reliable flatmate for many months, and in addition to keeping things tidy and organized, she turned out to be a person of unquestionable integrity, who became a friend. I know at the time she also had some short-term pet-sitting gigs in the vicinity, and she proved to be great with the animals!

    I know Laura to be an incredibly intrepid and accomplished traveler who admirably continues to fulfill her dreams in living abroad. She is the kind of person you can definitely trust with your home and its furnishings, and you can be sure she will leave things the way she found them. Responsible, honest and readily likable woman whom I highly recommend. Look no further!

    Laura and I have been friends for over 15 years and she has stayed at my home on many occasions and watched it as well as my two small dogs while I was away. She is a very reliable, honest person and you can trust her to make sure that directions are followed accurately and that your home and pets are well-cared for in your absence. She is neat and respectful and your home will be left in the same condition that you expect of yourself.

About Laura

I am American (from Madison, Wisconsin, then a few years in NYC, and a few months in South Beach Miami) and I left there in 2006. After 9 months of living my dream of traveling and living around Australia, I spent one year in New Zealand also traveling and living in different places. I worked in hospitality, tourism and many casual jobs during this time. I have since lived in Sydney, Australia for just over 10 years and time flies! In the last few years I've worked as a Recruiter for tech companies. I will be leaving here within the next few months to travel and then settle somewhere else in the world. I like slow travel or living somewhere, taking time to really get to know a place and understand the culture, so house and pet sitting is the perfect mix!

Why I want to house sit

I can take care of your pets and your home with great care as if they were my own. Animals seem to gravitate to me and know that I love them. They are so amazing and really make people happy and are always there for their owners, so I think it's important to provide good care for them in their own home even when you cannot be there. I travel as much as possible and house sitting is a great way to extend a trip longer as well as feeling like a local and experiencing what it would be like to live in that area. I have a lot of work to do online as well as always have books I'd like to read, so I am happy to spend a lot of quality time at your home keeping your pets company.

My experience

I have always loved animals and travel, as well as experiencing how other people live around the world. I grew up with a cat and hamsters, I have petsat for friends dogs and cats, had flatmates with dogs and cats, and look forward to having a dog of my own someday. I've worked on a dude ranch (horses) in Colorado, a cattle station outside of Alice Springs, Australia and a sheep farm in New Zealand. I am full of energy running around playing with dogs and am chilled out and cuddly with cats. I have lived alone for the past 5 years and before that have lived with many different flatmates in Australia, New Zealand and around the United States, so I know how to keep a place clean and tidy. I'm organised, reliable, adaptable and can be flexible to your needs. This site is a great way for us all to help each other out!
