Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Laura, I live in a large house near Lucks Lane with my husband (DJ) and son. We LOVE dogs, but sadly, our two senior dogs passed away in early 2023. Since that time we've been feeling like the house is a little empty without our pals, so we thought it would be nice to welcome some furry guests to stay with us while their parents are out of town.

Laura and DJ were fabulous! They were diligent in learning about Sam and Grace in order to give the best care possible and were kind enough to willingly take on the task of giving Grace her insulin injection. There home and yard was perfect and I felt safe leaving Sam and Grace in their care. I would recommend Laura and DJ and look forward to having them keep Sam and Grace again!

Laura and her family were great! Excellent communication and my senior pup was well-loved while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced in yard, a big grassy unfenced side yard, and two adults and one small child to keep your dog endlessly entertained. We live in a quiet neighborhood that is very pet and family friendly. Your dog will get lots of love and attention ! We'll crate your dog if that's what you prefer. But otherwise, if your dog is housebroken/non-destructive and we have to run out for an errand, we're happy to give them free range in a part of the house. We're fairly flexible and happy to work out the details of a visit, so if you have certain requests just let us know. We have a young child so your dog MUST be kid friendly. He's good with dogs and knows "soft hands" but your dog would need to be OK with littles. Strong preference also for dogs that are fully house broken (but let's be honest, we may overlook that one for a really cute puppy!). Finally, we do require a meet-and-greet prior to boarding to ensure everyone will get along and to familiarize your pup with our home (so it is not so scary when you leave!). Thanks! Feel free to reach out with any questions. -Laura

Information Laura B. would like to know about your pet

We like to understand your dog's typical schedule, any quirks or fears, do's and dont's, and emergency information. So please be sure to jot down any details that would be helpful and provide them when you drop off your dog.

A typical day

We'll hang with your pup and provide belly rubs, head scratches and snuggles. Each day at our house typically includes multiple romps around the yard and a walk around the neighborhood to smell all the smells. Let us know what your dog enjoys.
