Policies & Procedures: -I require a meet and greet for all new clients. During our meet & greet, we’ll review your expectations of what you expect to be done during our bookings. (Food schedules, medication, litter, harness/leash location, etc.) -Coordinate access points: Please have spare keys or door codes prepared by our meet & greet date. We’ll also discuss the preferred method for key return. -For dogs without free yard access, I require a minimum of 3-4 drop-in visits per day if I’m the only one providing care during a 24-hour period. (Dependent on how long they can go without potty breaks) Cancellation Policy: One Day: Clients get a full refund if they cancel by noon the day before the stay starts. For Safety Reasons: -I do not take any dogs to the park regardless of their size, breed, temperament, age, etc. -I do not accept walks after sunset. I also offer Wedding/Event Pet Companion services at a rate of $70/hour. Please send a booking request on your preferred date for more information about this service.

My goal is to provide your pet with the same love and care they get from you! I'd love to keep your pets company and make sure they are entertained and taken care of while their favorite hooman is away.

Information Laura A. would like to know about your pet

Any behaviors, patterns, routines or release words that I need to be aware of. Favorite toys, treats and activities. Any behaviors you do not want your pet to exhibit. (Sitting on the couch, scratching a specific piece of furniture, etc.)

A typical day

I love making sure pets are engaged, entertained, and get to stay as close to their regular routines as possible. If your pet has a favorite activity or a favorite route to take their walk on, I'd love to know to assure they are as happy as possible.

Laura was awesome! She provided detailed updates after every visit along with photos, and was always quick to respond. I felt at ease knowing she was taking care of my cats, especially with her being a cat owner herself. Thank you Laura!
