Availability
I work from home alongside my wonderful pets: Daisy, my 3-year-old yellow lab, and my three cats—George Bailey, Gus, and Little Boo (a once-feral cat who took me a year to coax indoors). Our home is a calm and relaxed environment where the pets are free to roam both inside and outside as they please. While I may step out occasionally to run errands, I’m typically at home throughout the day, ensuring your pet will have plenty of company and care.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced yard, so your pets can safely explore both inside and outside the house. My home is their home, and they’re welcome to relax on the furniture (unless you’d rather they don’t pick up that habit). We’re a laid-back, pet-loving household where the animals pretty much run the show! I’m happy to host more than one dog at a time, but I’ll make sure they get to meet my own dog and cats first to ensure everyone gets along and feels comfortable. It’s all about keeping things happy and stress-free for everyone! 🐾

Information Laura M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if you animal has any special needs or may need more attention than normal. I can always keep your animal as a single boarder if they have not met
A typical day
A typical day here is filled with fun and relaxation! Your pup will get plenty of time to run around in the backyard, play with balls, toys, and bones, and then enjoy water breaks, naps, and treats—then we do it all over again! I like to let the dogs do their thing and follow their own pace, while keeping a close eye on them to make sure everyone’s safe and happy. If I need to pop out for errands, the dogs are free to hang out on their own, but I’m happy to crate them if that’s your preference (I have one crate available, but you’re welcome to bring your own if needed). It’s all about making sure your furry friend feels at home and comfortable!

Pet care experience
Hello! Just a quick note—I go by my middle name, “Wylie,” though my profile only allows me to display my first name. For years, I’ve had the joy and pleasure of caring for the pets of family and friends, and it’s become a true passion of mine. I’m the kind of person who can’t resist saying hello to every dog or cat I meet—whether on the street or in someone’s home. When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family. As someone who considers my own pets to be my “kids,” I take great care to ensure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I believe every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes them happiest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where they can relax and thrive. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet!
Reviews


Wylie is amazing! She took my two dogs into her home and life on pretty short notice and they had a blast. I got constant pictures of them running and playing in her yard with her sweet dog Daisy and a couple of other pals, as well as chilaxing on the conch and in their beds happy and peaceful in her lovely home. She has a huge, safe, and spacious yard that is open for the dogs to go in and out as they need. I was a nervous mom and she was calm and so pleasant with me. Highly recommend!!

Laura is great with my dog Banksy. He arrives and leaves with a smile. I always know he is safe with her and he enjoys the freedom to play in her backyard and pal around with her dog. She is always very affectionate towards him. We love Laura!

Laura was wonderful! She kept me updated on how my pup was doing and it was super responsive and flexible

She is absolutely AMAZING! Our dog was so happy and comfortable with her at her house. We are so lucky to have found her. Recommend 1000/10!
