“We were going to Italy for eight days and I wanted to make sure Peyton would - be safe. My sweet boy is a senior with a few special needs. After reading Laura’s bio and reviews I decided to reach out to her to see if she were available for the dates I would be gone. I was impressed with her quick response she was indeed available and asked if I would like to do a meet and greet. We agreed on a date and time for Peyton and me to come for a visit. During our time there Peyton seemed relaxed and making himself very much at home, he even made a new friend! On the morning of Peyton’s stay he had no hesitation whatsoever he ran up to the door tails a wagging. I knew I made the right choice in booking with Laura. Thank you, Laura for taking such great care of my little guy and the updates and photos you sent… Really reassuring! :)”

Jesus was fantastic with our puppy! He made our pup feel completely comfortable and at home right away. His communication was excellent—he was always quick to reply to questions and sent regular, reassuring updates throughout the stay. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommended!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lansing home-away-from-home, packing:

- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lansing.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
