Dog Loving Couple seeks guests!

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Laura and after having 2 wonderful dogs for several decades my husband and I find ourselves without a dog. While we aren’t ready for another dog, we miss having a dog around and would love the opportunity to have your dog visit. We have a dog friendly house and look forward to having a dog to spoil. We both work from home so have plenty of time to pet and walk your pets.

This was our first time leaving our dog with Laura and we wouldn't hesitate to do so again! Gus was well taken care of and we received regular updates. Thank you, Laura and Tom!

Laura and Tom are warm and caring and did a wonderful job with Toby! We received several pictures during the stay, and Toby seemed to be feeling right at home. We look forward to booking with Laura and Tom again!

Information Laura A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences. We are happy to accomodate pretty much any request. Look forward to meeting you and your dog!

A typical day

Our dogs have always been treated as members of the family and this would be true when your dog visits as well. We are up around 5:30 every morning. I have experience with providing sick dog care, including IVs and other care that might be needed. We have great areas for walks. Dogs can sleep where comfortable, typically family room or in our bedroom. If you'd prefer your dog to be the only dog with us, please let me know. I can accomodate. I'm flexible on drop off/pick up times, but there will be an extra charge when they are not similar (ex. a 7 am drop off and a 9 am pick up has no extra charge. A 7 am drop off and 5 pm pick up has an extra charge).
