Care for them like my own!

Pet care experience

With over 9 years of experience I know a thing or two on how to keep our four legged friends happy. I have administered oral medication on numerous occasions and have groomed the furriest of friends. I have rescued a dog and trained her from scratch, "it is never too old to teach an old dog new tricks." I have an open yard as well as a fenced in yard. I am always nearby, so rest assured your life long companion is well taken care of. If you are looking for someone to watch over them while you’re away, I am just a message away! In the morning, I let them out in the yard and walk those that require a leash. Then, I prepare their morning meal. After, we relax until midday where it’s afternoon playtime and potty time for 30 minutes to an hour. The dogs roam free and relax until the evening playtime for 30 minutes to an hour. Then, I prepare their dinner as the day winds down, I walk them for the night time potty break. By then they would be nice and tired and ready to enjoy a good nights rest. Each dog will have their own space to sleep (family pets stay together). No worries with the open yard, I use a flashlight collar or the pet friendly invisible fence collar to never lose our friend. I keep all pets separated during feeding time and all playtimes are strictly monitored. I’m alway watching for any food or toy aggressions.

Laura was amazing with our dog Flash. She sent pictures of Flash playing with her dogs and updated us daily on how Flash was doing. Highly recommended. Will definitely use Laura A again.

Laura and her two furry roommates were warm and welcoming. She understood our overly cautious and quirky dog Oreo. She was patient in letting her get acclimated to her new surroundings. With her two dogs and a large yard to run in Oreo had lots of playtime. She thinks that is what her day is all about every day. Thank you Laura Bonnie

Laura was terrific ! As a first time Rover customer she made me feel very comfortably leaving my "big baby" with her. Laura clearly had experience and confidence handling dogs and my dog felt that and was comfortable with her. Laura was reliable and communicative and everything went smoothly. overall great experience !

Laura is great, during I was away, out of State, she always up date and sent me emails about what was going on with my babies during their stay with Her. I felt so much relieve to see the pictures Laura sent to me. My next trip I will have Laura to cre for my babies again Dee
