About: I am very caring and will provide a family like atmosphere. I will make sure the best possible care is given, i have been pet sitting since i was 10 years old for family and friends. I have 1 cats currently. I am a mother to a 7 year old boy, a 2 year old boy and have my cousins 7 year old daughter. I have experience with animals with social and separation anxiety . I have dealt with special needs animals as well. I am a huge animal lover and will always make sure that every animal is treated as kindly as possible.

I have a decent yard and live in a neighborhood where I can take on daily walks to ensure excersise.

“Our dog has never stayed with anyone other than family or friends before and I was quite nervous about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. That is until I met Nancy. From the very start of our meet and greet, I knew that she and her husband would treat Duffy as their very own. They are genuine dog people! She sent us many pictures of him every day and it was obvious that he enjoyed his time with them and their dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away without a single worry!”


“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”

“Everything worked out just fine! Macchi is her happy energetic self and I'm glad to have her back! Thank you so much for utilizing the instructions left for her. It's often difficult to find someone who will follow them. We would totally stay again!”

I’ve absolutely adored my students and clients and would like to shower my love on your pet-angel(s) as well! As a social worker, I am usually able to create my own schedule on an as-needed basis for you…plus I usually have weekends free for ample time with your pet. I love to walk, play and give lots of love and attention so those will be incorporated frequently! I will treat your pet(s) and home with the utmost respect as I do my own. I will stay in frequent contact with you and will take pictures throughout the visit so you can be assured of my service and your pet’s well-being.

“I am so glad I found this app to have met Laura! She was AMAZING from the very beginning. I have never boarded my dog overnight with anyone outside of family and Laura made the process for myself and my Legend boy so easy! I always go off how my boy reacts to people when he meets them and he felt very comfortable with Laura during our first meet up which gave me a peace of mind about the entire process. Laura communication was GREAT she messaged me with any questions and she also shared updates through messages and pictures of my Legend boy throughout his stay! Her response back to me was always done in a timely matter. She was just AWESOME and easy to work with. I will definitely be returning and would recommend Laura to anyone who is looking for a safe, friendly, loving place for their fur babies to stay when in need of a sitter💗.”


“Aleisha was amazing with our 1 year old pup. As a rescue he does have anxiety being left alone and she handled him beautifully! The pictures throughout his stay really helped to ease my mind as I had never parted with my dog before for any amount of time! She made it a very easy transition and worked with my same day notice! Couldn’t of had a better experience!”

“Lauren and her family were great with Walter. She has a clean place, which puts comfort in my head. The other dogs and fenced in yard to make sure he had a place to get rid of his endless energy was a big deal. She had nothing but good things to say and was very easy to stay in contact with by sending pics and updates. We appreciate her business. ?”
