Highlights
Pet care experience
Vacation home for your pet
My family and I are avid dog lovers. We recently lost our 10 yr old Doberman due to heart failure and we are not quite ready to adopt another dog, but we miss having one in the house. I am a stay at home mom with a husband who works part time from home and 2 high school age kids in the house. I have a medical profession background and experience caring for puppies, dogs that require medical assistance as well as geriatric dogs. I look forward to going for long walks in the hills or down to Starbucks for treats with your pup. I'd be happy to send you pics and videos of your pets stay with us and answer any questions you may have.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
My two girls stayed with Laura and her family recently. They were vey well taken care. Laura provided good supervision, plenty of exercise and a lot of TLC. She treated them like family and sent updates with photos and videos. It's hard to leave fur babies somewhere new, but I felt very at ease with Laura and will certainly book a stay with her again in the future. Thank you! :)
Laura and her family were incredible. She was communicative, very quick with responsiveness and shared photos of our pup and seemingly took great care of him! Would highly recommend
Laura is absolutely terrific! I could tell my pup really bonded with her and the family. I will/would definitely use her again! Thank you so much.
We couldn’t have asked for a more caring and thoughtful person to watch our dog while we were out of town. Laura and her family showered her with lots of love and even celebrated her Birthday 🎂! We were truly blown away by her kindness and thoughtfulness !
We couldn’t be happier with the care Laura provided for our dog! She was attentive, kind, and went above and beyond to ensure our dog felt loved and comfortable while we were away. Laura kept us updated with pictures and messages, giving us peace of mind knowing our dog was in great hands. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and we’re so grateful for her exceptional service. Highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Laura was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our Doberman and made sure he was well looked after the entire time. Communication was consistent and clear, which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, he really loved her you could tell he felt comfortable and happy. We’d definitely book with her again!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
There is a gated backyard with plenty of sunny lounging spots as well as a shaded and fenced dog run. There is also a doggie door with collar remote access if you would like your pet to have the freedom to come and go. A large crate can also be provided if your pet feels more secure in that, otherwise we have large dog beds throughout the house.
A typical day
My typical pet routine consists of a morning feeding around 6/630am followed by a brisk walk in the hills of Encino/Tarzana. Your pet would then be free to relax or play in the house or gated backyard while under supervision. Additional walks would happen in the afternoons followed by an evening meal around 6pm. I will treat your pet as one of my own and accommodate any feeding or medication schedule.
