Your Dog's New Best Friend

With 20 years of dog sitting experience, I have a lifelong passion for caring for dogs of all ages. I started dog sitting when I was 14 and have since provided overnight and drop-in services. Having grown up with dogs, I've helped train four puppies and nannied for a family with a senior dog for four years. My experience includes administering medication and catering to the unique needs of both puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. I am dedicated to offering reliable, compassionate, and professional care for your furry friends. I have 2 boys under the age of 5 so we have a louder, high energy house!

Laura was very nice and very good to Annabelle. And I appreciate that she cleaned up an accident Annabelle made before she got to the house. I happily recommend Laura!

Laura was very communicative both before and during my pups’ stay at her home. I was grateful for the updates and photos she sent. They clearly got lots of attention and were well cared for. I definitely recommend her!

Ray had a fabulous time with Laura and her family. She also sent me updates throughout his stay and that greatly helped my anxiety of leaving him during vacation. I would absolutely book with her again!

We are so grateful for Laura and her wonderful family! Our usual sitter wasn't available and Laura helped our dog feel right at home during our week away. Through regular messages, which included adorable pictures, we were assured of her settling in and being treated as a family member by all of them. We knew she was loved and cared for by a knowledgeable and loving family. I highly recommend Laura and will definitely be bringing our dog back again.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, I prioritize safety and well-being. Dogs are always taken out on a leash to ensure their safety. I assume all dogs are not friendly unless told otherwise, ensuring a cautious and respectful approach to each new dog. I am knowledgeable about foods that are toxic to dogs and take great care to prevent them from consuming anything harmful. I believe strongly in positive reinforcement, rewarding good behavior rather than punishing the bad, to foster a trusting and happy relationship with the dogs I care for.
