Availability

I work remotely from my home in Chelan. I have separate indoor and outdoor spaces to accommodate 2 to 4 furry friends while you are away or visiting Chelan. In the busy season, I have an assistant who stays at my home when I have out of town commitments. I take dogs on walks during my breaks and they are often at my side while I am at the computer. I don't have a meeting heavy schedule which allows me to give my visiting pets plenty of attention.

Information Laird R. would like to know about your pet

It helps to know how much social contact and interaction history your dog has with other people and dogs. If your dog has aggressive tendencies or high separation anxiety, this won't likely work for both parties.

A typical day

Since I work from home, your dog(s) will get a a combination of active attention and relaxation. On my work breaks, I routinely walk or jog in the neighborhood and would have your dog join me. We often play in the yard and inside. Most weeknights, I'm home and will be with your dog, playing or cuddling. I occasionally leave for a couple of restaurant shifts per week and arrange coverage from my assistant for dogs that need more one on one attention.

We booked Laird for a second year in a row for 1 day during our annual camping trip to Chelan, so we could take our kids to Slide Waters! Our two 3 year old labs are energetic and kept him on his toes but he was great and greeted us with a smile when we picked them up! We would definitely book him again next year!

Laird was very easy to communicate with and very accommodating. He took great care of Rufus while we traveled up the lake to Stehekin.

Marco our mini schnauzer had an awesome time! He came home tired and a doggie hangover from too much fun with a week away— which we love to see!! Appreciated Laird being so flexible and accommodating, where we had a last min schedule change with flights and happily supported our changes— he was also highly communicative. The daily dog pics also were a major bonus to show all the doggie adventures. We will definitely book with Laird in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
