Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priority. We offer a cage-free, cozy home where pets are free to roam (crate-trained dogs are also welcome). Blankets on couches, dog beds throughout the house, and a calm, peaceful mountain setting help dogs feel right at home. I’m big on exercise and fun: tailored walks, hikes, fetch, shallow water pools, obedience games, or quiet time under the trees — whatever best suits your dog’s age, energy level, and personality.

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Laura, and my husband Brian and I are so excited for the opportunity to care for your beloved pets while you’re away! We recently moved to beautiful Kagel Canyon, just minutes from the 210 freeway. Our home sits on a serene private drive surrounded by mature trees and hiking trails. We have two fully fenced yards with plenty of shade and room to play, plus two VIP dog suites: • One with a queen-size bed • One with dog beds, a patio door, and a lovely garden view Family and animals have always been my passion. Growing up, my mom bred Boxers, and I later bred German Shepherds for 10 years. I’ve spent my life surrounded by dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I truly love giving them the best care possible. Pet sitting is our full-time job. Brian and I work together as a dedicated team, so your dog gets the benefit of two experienced sitters 100% of the time. We’re always here and provide constant supervision and attention throughout the day and night. We treat every dog as if they were our own and are honored to provide a safe, loving, stress-free home away from home. You can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands.

Snowy had his first overnight stay with Laura and Brian, and they made the entire experience so easy and stress free. He had so much fun during his stay, and it was clear he felt comfortable and well cared for. Laura and Brian kept me updated with plenty of photos and maintained excellent communication throughout, which made me feel completely at ease. When I picked him up, he even seemed a little sad to leave. that says it all! I’m so grateful for the care and attention they gave him, and I would absolutely trust Laura and Brian with Snowy again.🤍
