Laura was so amazing to my sweet little old men. She is the only person I trust to watch them when I'm away. She was great with sending pictures and updates daily. My boys were mad when they came home because they had so much fun with Auntie Laura!!! I highly recommend Laura!

Laura exuded love for Gigi the moment she met her and kept us up to date with notes and photos.

Laura is absolutely amazing. She had so much patience with my pups who both suffer from separation anxiety. She showered them with love and attention and treated them as if they were her own. She sent me updates, pictures and videos. There isn’t enough space to give her the review she truly deserves. I am able to leave my “babies” with her knowing that they will be loved and cared for while I am away. Highly recommended!!!

This was our second time using Laura and for a longer time too and we were so comfortable leaving our pup with her! We received pictures daily and even were able to schedule a time to FaceTime our very tired pup.

Information laura M. would like to know about your pet

I’m taking dog CPR currently. My dog, Nemo, had both of his patella‘s in his back legs go out, so he was not able to walk and I basically was his caretaker around the clock. Nemo also had congestive heart failure that wasn’t diagnosed until it got to be extremely severe. I had to administer medication to him three times a day. It was no fun, but I am able to do it very easily now for other dogs. Nemo was my treasure, I rescued him after someone threw him out of a car window in Arkansas. ? this is why I prefer pets over people a lot of times☺️ Who could do something that heinous?? The place where I rescued him from, the person that worked at Last Hope, attempted to find the person responsible for their actions (jail!) However, they were never able to find him to prosecute. I was so fortunate to give him 4 1/2 years of happiness and true love. I only wish I had 10 more years with him. I may have had the honor of rescuing him, but he truly rescued me from the sadness of losing my dog of 17 years. He is missed, but he will forever be in my heart ❤️

A typical day

Wake up, take them for their morning pee. Then feed them and myself and offer them coffee, but surprisingly, I have never had any takers. ? I mainly do what your dogs normal activities are. So when you meet me please put them all down or send them to me and I will know what their normal day looks like! Because after all this is all about your DOG/S—, and their needs. So I modify my day around what he/she normally does at home :). Whether they like to have the TV on and just relax and chill all day OR IF he/she needs to.go for walks or hikes-, it’s keeping as much of their normal schedule as I can accommodate. I.e. hikes, walks, or very lazy chill & snuggly days! I can’t morph into you, but they are definitely treated with so much love , it might lessen the “sting” of missing you! FaceTime them anytime and I can send pictures of how our day is going!
