Information Laura E. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I will need to know: - your dog’s history with other dogs and humans to prepare for walks. - your dog’s diet. - your dog’s medical history if there are concerns. - if your dog is house broken and/or crate trained. - if your dog is allowed on furniture and/or needs to be contained to a smaller area when home alone.

A typical day

I can provide toys for fetch, tug of war, outdoor and indoor play time. I offer long or short walks depending on client's needs. I will allow your pet to snuggle on the couch and sleep in my bed if that is part of your routine with them, but I will respect whichever rules you have.

Experienced Dog Handler

Pet care experience

My name is Laura and I have been caring for and rescuing dogs on and off for over 10 years. I have experience with all types of small dogs including crate training, leash training, commands like “sit” and socialization training for the more challenging little ones. I am a fan of Caesar Milan’s training techniques and have worked with dog behaviorists to improve my craft. I am flexible and will crate or not crate a dog based on owner’s preference. I have an unfenced yard for play and potty on a leash but I also provide walks around the neighborhood. I will honor the owner’s requests to keep dog off the furniture or allow dog on the furniture. I am a strong believer in consistency to maintain a dog’s training. I will only board multiple pets if they are from the same family. I do not currently have any pets. I am a full-time teacher with normal working hours and I can provide a consistent feeding schedule and 3 walks a day.

Laura was absolutely amazing ! She will be cuties sitter going forward. This was my first time using a sitter service and Cuties first time being around someone other than me and my daughter. She was so welcoming. From the moment i came in her home i knew it was the fit. Cutie immediately felt comfortable. She took note of every single he liked and made a home away from home for him. She made she sure send pictures and videos through the day. I literally did not have to worry about his care with him. I am be pleased and so thankful ! I also needed to make last minute extensions for his care because i was in the middle of a move and Laura made it a priority to accommodate.

A great experience again with Laura! She takes great care of our 2 senior dogs and makes them feel comfortable and safe during boarding. Very easy to work with and sends great photos of our pooches during their stay. It's a great relief to see our dogs develop confidence under her care. Thanks again for an excellent boarding experience!
