Kikki had a wonderful time with Laura. Laura was very flexible as we made some last minute changes on drop off times. Much appreciated

Laura and her family did a fantastic job watching our little guy for a few days. She kept us posted with pictures and frequent updates, and he had an amazing time filled with fun. Meeko will definitely be back. Would highly recommend!!!

Laura did a great job with our dogs and was kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with. She handled two very different dogs well, was patient with their needs, and clearly took good care of them. We appreciated that she was thoughtful, followed instructions, and made us feel comfortable leaving her with our fur babies 🐾

Panthro and Sprinkles had such a good time with Laura! She played with them with their favourite toys, cuddled with Panthro (Sprinkles is a strong, independent woman who needs nobody, you see!), fed them their favourite meal (mmm, Friskies!), and made sure they had clean litter and cozy blankets to make biscuits and snuggle up in. Even though I was only away one evening, I am delighted about the care they received and knowing the were taken care of the way I would have gives me peace of mind. I will be recommending Laura to all my pet-owning friends!

Laura watched my corgi Milo while my fiance and I were on a trip abroad. I was really nervous because we'd never been on a trip without him and I had thought about kennels, but I wanted him to be with a family and have company instead. I met Laura first so she could meet Milo and spend some time with him and they got along really well. Laura was suuuuper good about sending us photos during the day and telling us how he was. He missed us a bit at first then seemed to be having a lot of fun with her and the family! He got enough walks and I could tell he was well taken care of. I will never consider doing a kennel again, Laura was the perfect dog sitter!

Laura is a great dog sitter, she took great care of Bruno for a week and kept me updated with cute photos and notes. She is very responsive, and has incredible attention to detail, and most of all such love for dogs. I would strongly recommend having Laura take care of your pets for stress-free time away, and to have your dog make a new friend!
