Energetic & Fur Loving Home

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs of every kind for 30 years that were either mine or family members. Daily walks or dog park play, feeding, bathing, and experience with daily medications. I have a lab mix dog who loves all dogs. She's gentle with small dogs and loves to play with the bigger ones. Dogs have access to large rooms and are allowed on all furniture. They have access to a fenced-in yard and a great dog park. Socialization would be at the owner's request only. My family and I spend time every evening and weekend playing with our dog and would love to take care of your fur babies while you are away.

Our first Rover experience with Laura was amazing! Left Brooks for 10 days, and Laura's care was top-notch. Her dog Pepper and Brooks hit it off instantly, and the daily photo updates assured us he was content, cozy, and felt right at home. Extra kudos for handling Brooks' toe incident with such TLC. Looking forward to scheduling with Laura again – definitely worth the drive from Des Moines!

Laura was fantastic! Willow was so well taken care of. Laura sent plenty of pictures and updates and ensured my pup was as comfortable as possible. She and her dog became pals and had a great time! I would highly recommend her for all pet care. Her gentle and caring nature is a perfect fit for all furry family members.

We left Charlli and Ivie with Laura for a long weekend. Right from the start, she shared pictures with us to let us know they had settled down after we left. She kept us informed all throughout the weekend about how they were doing. We felt they were well cared for and plan to use her services again. We highly recommend Laura!

Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet

Please update your pet's vet contact details on your profile and their current vaccination records. Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Do you have any special activities that your fur baby enjoys? What commands does your dog understand? What are your current feeding times?

A typical day

I have many mental stimulation toys and puzzles to keep your dog busy. Daily walks are provided and if at owners request play at our local dog park is available. If your fur baby is more laid back and just loves snuggles and attention we have no shortage of pets and love to give.
