Pet care experience
Hi, we're Laura and Bryan and we love dogs! We are very patient and gentle with animals. I (Laura) owned a border collie (very smart!) and loved teaching her tricks and playing with her to satisfy her high mental and physical engagement needs. She also gave me plenty of experience with grooming upkeep! I am an artist who works from home during the week, and in the gallery on weekend afternoons. Bryan is home during those times and works from home most weekdays as well. Our apartment is across the street from the beautiful Humboldt Park, so it is a wonderful area to walk and play. We have cats, so your dog will need to be friendly with kitties. We only watch one dog at a time, unless the dogs are from the same household or already friends who play together. We have watched pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! Aside from dog-sitting, Laura loves to read and Bryan loves playing music. We met while traveling and both enjoy exploring. We were brought together further by our love of animals! We'd be happy to add your dog to our little family for however long they need care. If you have any other questions about us, please reach out.
Reviews
Laura and Bryan were so great with my pup, Charlie! Charlie has anxiety in new places, but they were sweet and patient with her while she got used to them and their space and after her first overnight, Charlie came home happy and well cared for.
Laura and Bryan are the best and most accommodating people ever. We had an emergency trip came up and they were so quick to response and took Nova in right away. We feel very comfortable leaving Nova with them anytime and we know Nova enjoyed spending time with them too. They’re the best sitters any dog owners could ask for :)
Laura was an absolute delight to work with and made my very spoiled pup fell right at home. She was very accommodating, even when I messed up the dates, and sent pictures to show me that Cinni was thriving in her home! I cannot get over how great our experience was and am very happy to have Laura as our go to sitter for Cinni.
Laura does a great job and we are always thrilled when she is available to watch our girl! Great to know our pup is in the best hands with Laura.
