Camp Pawsome! Pups dream retreat!

Pet care experience

All dogs melt my heart ❤️ “The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.” M.K. Clinton Hi my name is Laura and caring for pups is my dream job, a passion that doesn’t feel like work to me. I have had the pleasure to own, now 6 fur baby’s and care for many more amazing dogs over the past 25 years. I had such a rewarding experience fostering for the New Jersey Boxer rescue. To teach, care and love these amazing pups and to help them find their forever home was one of the best dog experiences in my life. I currently have two rescue fur baby’s and two school age boys all eager to meet and make your fur babies feel at home. I will provide over night boarding for no more then 3 families at a time, but typically no more then 5 dogs at a time, including mine, to ensure your pup has the attention they need to feel at home.

Laura took excellent care of our Kobe. She ensured he had ample outdoor time, even indulging him in his favorite activity—playing fetch. Throughout his stay, Laura kept us updated with regular photos and messages, giving us peace of mind knowing Kobe was enjoying himself. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura to anyone seeking a dependable boarding option for their dog.

Safety, trust & environment

My biggest priority is your dog’s safety and comfort. All dogs are always monitored when together and never left alone in the yard. Each family/dog will have their own space, feeding and sleeping will be in their own space and anytime I have to step away. I also play calming music when they are left alone. When I need to attend to my family, all rooms are under surveillance, which I can monitor from my kitchen monitor as well as my phone. I am prepared for most situations and can adapt to your pup’s needs. Your pup will feel like they are on their own vacation when in my care, with a nice size private fenced in yard to play in, a Koi pond next to a Japanese Maple tree that most dogs love to hang out under to observe or even take a swim in the pool. Yes they are welcome to swim! If the big pool is too intimidating, I also put out little baby pools. Playing fetch and chase is always the biggest pass time here, but I alway have a back up plan for bad weather, with indoor keep away, bubbles, laser chase, treat mazes and more! If they aren’t playing, they’ll rest inside on one of many big fluffy pillows or play with the many toys available. I can easily crate your dog if needed or you require it. I can provide any comforts your pup may need while in my care. I live on a cul-de-sac with hiking trails only a block from the house. We are equipped with so much stimulation to help your pups not miss their family as much as they would in a kennel or home alone

I attend to my visitors first thing in the morning starting around 6am and last before I head to bed between 10-11pm, with a ton of yard time between. We will go on daily walks to explore new smells in the neighborhood and trails around my home always over 1 mile. I will spend time playing games inside and in the yard.

IMPORTANT: * For all new request I require a meet and greet, prior to booking. All meet and greets must be completed on the weekends at my home, when my husband is available. * All drop offs/pick ups are to be completed between 9am and 9pm, with a 1 hour window unless previously agreed upon. * All dogs MUST be fixed over the age of 10 months, no exceptions. * All rates are subject to change, depending on your pets needs/training. Dogs that are not properly house trained or do not respect boundaries, will endure additional charges. * Any significant damage will require reimbursement. I am currently a stay at home soccer mom/coach, spending most of my time at home during the day. So caring and walking your dog(s) would be easy as my schedule allows the time to properly care for your fur baby. This said, as mom my other responsibilities are my children and home, however your pup will not be left alone for more then 2 hours at a time.
