About Laura K.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a huge fenced yard and tons of land to run around and enjoy. I have two friendly dogs and a cat who love other animals. When caring for pets in your home, I will follow your directions and make sure your animals are cared for as if they were my own.

Information Laura K. would like to know about your pet
My lab is very submissive and gets along with all animals. My border collie does not like other humans, but tolerates other dogs as long as they are not aggressive or dominant. She must be the most dominant dog in the house. I have a cat who is very dog friendly and generally keeps to herself other than meal times. All animals who come into my home MUST be confirmed dog and cat friendly. NO history of chasing cats/prey drive. I generally do not allow unfixed animals due to behavioral issues. No history of marking inside the home, please.
A typical day
During the week, dogs are fed and let out 2x before I leave for work at 7am. I typically get home around 3:30pm and immediately go out to the field to play. My dogs are extremely active so we will play for at least one hour. On the weekends as long as the weather is nice, we will play in the field, hike the trails behind my house, or go on a car rides. On the weekends I am usually out of the house for no more than a few hours, so I spend most of that time with my dogs.

Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for over 15 years for family members, neighbors, and friends. I moved from Alaska and have a very active lifestyle. I love to take animals on adventures, but also love cuddling on the couch at the end of the day.
Reviews

Our dog LOVES going to Laura's place when we're traveling. He gets so excited when we pull down her driveway. The moment he hops out of the car, he goes looking for the toys he buried last time he was there. Laura genuinely cares for our dog as well.

Laura is amazing & took excellent care of our doggo (border collie) while we were away. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a loving environment while they are away from home!

Laura was great! Would definitely use her services again!

Merry had a great time and napped all day when he got home from all the play :)
