Your dog's sleeping arrangement You may want to bring a bed or blanket if thats what they use at home, but there are couches and beds they are welcome to.

Pet care experience

I ONLY SIT FOR 1 FAMILIES PETS AT A TIME ( UP TO 5 - depending on size), so no fights over food, toys or anything else. I am an experienced pet sitter with lots of love to give. We have a fenced yard and are home most of the time so your pet will not be alone. I love all creatures large and small and have had many furry friends. We have no pets at this time and we miss having them to cuddle and love on. (There are no children either.) Your fur baby will get all of the attention they deserve either playing ball, taking a walk or just cuddling on the couch. A stress free environment for your fur baby. About this sitter: I Love all creatures large and small. At this time we have no pets but have had many in the past. We miss wet kisses and playing with our furry friends. We are home most of the time so your baby will not be alone. We can watch your pet (or pets) overnight or for extended periods of time. I do require a meet and greet first. Our yard is fenced with a walking trail next to it. Why I love dog sitting I have had pets my whole life. About my yard Our yard is fenced with a pool and a walking trail next to it. My experience administering medication I have a lot of experience giving pills to dogs and cats.

Very easy to work with. She has a great pick up and drop off process. Seems like my dog really had a good time in her daily pictures. Would rebook

Laura took wonderful care of my pup! I appreciated the meet and greet prior to her stay. Laura took detailed notes to ensure she knew my pup's needs and went above and beyond to make her comfortable during her stay. I also appreciated Laura's updates to let me know how she was doing. She included numerous pictures that reassured me my pup was in great hands. I was honestly worried she would not want to leave! I'm grateful to have found such a wonderful human to take care of my fur baby while I'm away. Highly recommend! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
