She enjoys long walks in Holliday Park, gardening, and audiobook adventure stories. Her current feline fur babies, Magus and Maisie, love the homemade toys she comes up with.

“I met “cat whisperer” Nancy and NPS owner Sherri when I needed care for my cats while on vacation. Right away I felt the sincere caring and professional attitude from them both. I took a chance and asked Sherri if I could join her team!”, Laura said. “I can’t wait to meet your fur, feather or scale babies and help keep them healthy and happy while you are away”. Laura provides all services for NPS, for both dogs and cats and other species, including exclusive move- in care when needed. She is shown here with her kitty Magus, as a kitten.
