The dog days are the best days!
Pet care experience
I have had large family dogs since I was 2! Being an only child I spent much of my time with them and felt part of the "pack"! I have continued my love and passion for animals into my adult life. I have walked dogs for many friends and family members, worked with senior dogs who have special needs, and even held a grooming position for a time in an intern program. Due to this I have over 80 hours of in class experience learning about pet anatomy, safety, critical signs of illness and stress, proper handling for all breeds and their medical restrictions. The program also gave me experience in bathing, ear cleaning, nail clipping and taking care for multiple pets at a time in a high stress environment.
Reviews
Laura did a great job, Sasha says thanks for the cuddles
Laura did a great job with our kitties! She even took the time to bring in boxes from our porch. We have an older cat with an unusual no-litter situation which she was very willing to work with. It helped make our vacation less stressful knowing our boys were in good hands!
Laura D. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Laura has been wonderful for our animals! She always shows up and takes very good care of them. I would high recommend Laura!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in back yard as well as a dog who is recall and harness trained. He plays well with other dogs and his favorite is small dogs so don't be worried he's a gentle giant! He is also crate trained and has a seperate room he can play In during a daycare stay if needed for the comfort of your pet. I have a kitten as well who is very friendly and loves to cuddle with her big brother but also has her own space for her litter box and food seperate from my dog. to keep them safe and healthy, waste safety and disposal is a big priority of mine. I also have my pets up to date on all vaccinations and keep my house tidy and all small objects at high levels to optimize animal safety! No left out foods or harmful cleaning chemicals used and close top trash cans for zero access.
Information Laura D. would like to know about your pet
Anything you would tell a vet or groomer would be great for me to know! It's all about the fun but we do want to keep your furry family members as safe as possible and this is vital! Personality quirks and ques are also a plus! The more I know about your furry friend the better I can make our time together! A favorite toy or bed in the house, a favorite tree to pee on? It's all helpful!
A typical day
Long walks in the park or trails are a must for us! Daily walks around the neighborhood when weather permits and lots of yard time if not! Enrichment toys and lots of play are what we're all about. Maybe even learning a new trick or two! For those relaxing days and less active clients it's all about cuddle time, comfy beds in every room and plenty of love! We love group pile ups and your pet will feel right at home with us!
