I only pet sit in your home as I have 5 very spoiled dogs on my own. I do bring my 5 old and 9 year old with me if I can to help play ball and show your pups (or fellow animals as much affection as they need while you are away.

Information Laken R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets are kid friendly so I can plan ahead to have my kids covered in case you prefer no kids in the home (I'm a single mom and pet sit to take care of my little ones) so I can male arrangements to have them covered at my mom's

A typical day

I love to play ball, soccer or take them walking/jogging. Sometimes a nice walk around the neighborhood or a good 10 minutes of throwing a ball can really make their day ❤️

Pet care experience

Being a country girl, I have pet sit anything from dogs to indoor pot belly pigs to even donkeys. I've had dogs my entire life (4 of my own currently) and love to make your worry less while away. I love to send pictures and videos so you can see first hand how much love they are receiving when you are away. If you have animals besides cats and dogs, I would love to help with them as well.

Laken was God sent!! She is absolutely amazing. She takes such good care of my pigs and dogs. She’s a very loving and very respectable and just all around. Good person. I highly recommend her to take care of any of your animals. She is the best.

Laken is one of the best! She has helped me so much with my dogs and cats through a move. I wouldn’t have been able to sell my house if it weren’t for her boarding my cats through showings and the inbetween from house to house. She’s super kind and even taught me a few behavioral things about my Chihuahua. She’s very intuitive and observant and animals are her passion. Another thing I loved is that she has lower rates which makes service possible in this economy. She’s flexible and conversation is nice with her too. She’s a great person to know and will help with any animal needs. She has saved me last minute countless amount of times. If you want someone you can trust, choose Laken.

I have Laken as my designated Pet Sitter because of her love of my dogs. She came and did a meet-and-greet with them which was awesome and I think they fell for her that day. Laken sends pictures and videos of them getting snuggles and love and even after being gone a week they were so happy and balanced when we got home. Laken is so honorable with our home and pets, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of Slim & Daisy (and our two fish and plants that’s she’s keeps and eye one for me too!!)

Laken has kept my dogs on multiple occasions! They get so excited to see her when she comes over to see them. She keeps me updated on any needs they might have and is willing to help out in any way that is needed. I highly recommend her for any pet/large animal needs you might have.
