Your pups home away from home!
Pet care experience
I am excited to open my business up to Rover clients! I have been working with dogs since I can remember, beginning with my mom being a breeder throughout most of my childhood. Later, I learned my degree in psychology and experience in education provide transferrable skills into the dog training world! Professionally, I have been dog-sitting and training on the side for four years. This has typically only been during the summer- when school is out (I am a school counselor.) With COVID, I am working from home for the foreseeable future and would love to expand! Happy to help out with your furry loved ones while you take a much needed vacation from our current reality! Working remotely and want to spend some time up north? Camping? I'm here to help! Day care or overnight boarding, I love creating fun and interesting experiences for your pups. Many need a lot of brain stimulation (agility, challenging toys, training) in order to be able to find peace and calm when it is time for bed. Need help with your pups manners? Happy to add on leash training and any other trick you have been working on! I do have my own dog- an 8 year old lab who loves other dogs! His presence is up to you- he can stay for fun socialization for your pup, or he can also go on vacation to my uncle's (his second home!) I am also open to house sitting if your pup would prefer to remain in their own comfort space. Please let me know what your needs are, and we can see if we are a good fit!
Reviews
LaRae was awesome! She was a true sweetheart! I know my dogs were in good hands for the week that we were gone. Thanks so much?
LaRae was amazing! She took care of my baby Alf like he was her own! She even practiced tricks with him! I loved that she sent me videos and pictures everyday and let me know how he was doing at all times. Unfortunately, I had to stay an extra day out of town and she had no problem with helping me by keeping Alf for the extra day. Whenever I need a sitter for my boy I definitely will book with her again! I highly recommend LaRae! I promise you won’t be disappointed! ☺️ LaRae thank you so much for everything!!!
I have a miniature pinscher who happens to be a stubborn escape artist. LaRae's backyard is a great open space and has passed the security test! I also really appreciate that she gets to know our current training and feeding goals. She sends regular videos and updates of Redford being such a good listener! Redford has grown up with other dogs, so it's a bonus that her dog Koti is there.
“LaRae has been our go-to sitter for the past 3 summers now when we go on our family trip up north or visiting other family. Vader is always so pumped to go there! She is always reliable and easy to work with.” She also checks in On Buddy and Lelia our Cats for us . Very helpful When it comes to the pets ..

A typical day
Have a high energy pup that loves running? Not only do I have a great fenced in backyard- I am a daily (almost daily :) ) runner. I would love to have a partner! I am always looking for the next trail to hit- walking or running. If it is super cold or rainy outside, my unfinished basement, and entire home for that matter doubles as a huge indoor play area to burn some energy. I have many toys and am always adding more!
