Furry friends always having fun!

Pet care experience

10 years of experience with dogs of different personalities, ages, sizes, and needs has been rewarding. I started as a pet sitter/walker in my neighborhood with dogs ranging in ages puppy to senior. I worked at a doggy daycamp where like sized dogs were placed together in an indoor/outdoor play yard for supervised exercise. I also worked with a trainer that had an at home kennel for red zone dogs in need of rehabilitation. I specialize in positive reinforcement and obedience training. I teach puppies important basic skills like potty training, mouthing, loose leash walking, and crate training. I have worked with rescue dogs and shy or fearful dogs, building confidence and communication to help guide them to make better decisions. Most of all socialized, well loved, mentally and physically stimulated dogs are happy well rounded dogs.

Laura was wonderful with my beloved senior fur baby. Her communication was clear and her connection to my dog was evident when I returned home and witnessed the bond that had developed.

We can't thank you enough! Last minute ask for a drop in, was no problem. We have a timid lab that Laura was able to have warm up to her before the end of the visit. Provided cute pictures while taking care of the pups! Even putting a diaper on our senior dog. Will absolutely book again anytime!

Information Laura G. would like to know about your pet

I like to be aware of basic personality traits: likes, dislikes, socialized or unsocialized, goals if any, anything that seems pertinent to the owner.

A typical day

When going on a walk I prefer to take a hike through the woods, it is much more stimulating and natural. I also like to go through basic obedience while on the wall to ensure communication and engagement.
