Your Trustworthy Sitter.

My husband and I grew up in Mexico with dogs as part of our familly. Since my husband and I moved here to Chicago our family has grown up during these last years. We got Kronos in 2018 a male Pomeranian. He loves to cuddle and play fetch. And in 2020 we had girl twins which now they are toddlers who love dogs much as we do. And in early 2025 we welcomed our last baby. Through out the last 8 years that I have been working with Rover, I have taken care of a lot of furry friends, so many sizes and temperaments. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, high-energy, separation anxiety, teminal illlness dog, rescued dogs and also cats. I am a housewife who has a pretty regular routine. I spent most of the time at home and when I am not at home I am just picking up/dropping off my girls to school or at some extra lessons. That means your furry friend will have my company most of the time. We will follow any instructions left by you and we will try our best to accommodate your pup energy level. Your best friend must be comfortable around kids and other dog. In case your baby has separation anxiety I strongly suggest you to look for a sitter who spends all the time at home. Because life is much better with doggies we will happy to look after your Furry Family Member while you are away. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your best friend!

Laura was so amazing with our little guy Winston! He felt right at home immediately. He got several walks a day and Laura was so patient with him as he is a slow walker and more of a sniffer. She was great at keeping me in the loop and making me feel at peace while on vacation. Definitely recommend her for anyone looking for their pup to be taken care of like family!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Our schedule is pretty flexible since I stay at home all day and I work only with Rover. My husband helps a lot since he do home-office and he can keep his eyes on the doggie as well if I need to run some errands.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and fun is my priority My place is a two floor apartment which gives us a lot of space. Your pup will be free to run around always under supervision. I always use leash during walks. I have an open patio that is on my basement floor and a deck for you friend if it loves the open space when weather permits. My building have two front doors which are always closed and one back door with is high fence so the doggies for sure won't go anywhere without me.

Pets

A typical day

I love to keep the dogs happy and in balance. We will start our day with a good walk in my neighborhood. During midday we can walk at Humboldt park if weather permits it. In the afternoon we would play fetch, tug of war or if your pup prefers I can give it a good scratch session. For evening we can hang out in my leaving room playing or chilling with all the family. I always do one last potty break before going to bed. Your pup will sleep in my bedroom next to my bed.
