I also have experience sitting for horses. I worked for Rover when I lived in California and boarded, trained and walked all my pups. I've also worked for the Lost and Found department of the Humane Society where I would help people find their lost pets. I have 40 years of dog care and training experience.

Very accommodating and professional. Was able to drop my 2 dogs off on very short notice for 2 night. Very pleased and would most defiantly recommend her!

We left our dogs with Laura for a week while on vacation and she did a great job with them. She was easy to work with on drop off and pick up time. She sent great pictures and videos to keep us updated. Our dogs seemed very happy. We will be using her for our next vacation.

We were out of town for two weeks so we found Laura on this website to dogsit Cody while we were gone. Laura really knows what she is doing and takes good care of dogs. She sent us photos and a video of Cody to keep us posted. She is definitely the person to go to when you need someone to look after your dogs when you are away!

We went out of town for one week in June and we've only had our dog, Jackson, for about 6 months. We wanted to leave him with someone who would make him comfortable while we were gone. Laura was great with Jackson. He has a lot of energy and her and her husband found ways to wear him out. She even gave him doggie massage! She has a nice big yard and a few of her own dogs to keep Jackson company! I would highly recommend her services!

Both of our dogs came home very happy. It seems that they had a great time with Laura and we certainly were comfortable leaving the dogs for a week. Laura was very comfortable with the dogs and with handle their individual personalities.

My French Bulldog, Coco Chanel, was really well taken care of for four days. Laura is so nice and has a really nice set-up for dog-sitting. I felt very confident leaving Coco with Laura even though it was the first time. Laura sent me messages every day to let me know how the visit was going. She worked on Coco's behaviors that I identified as "needing work." When I picked her up, Coco was freshly bathed and ready to go. Laura gave me a few pointers on what she had been working on with Coco. I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone who is apprehensive about leaving their fur boy or fur girl. Laura is great.
