Dog lover looking for furry friends

Pet care experience

I am a dog lover who can’t have a dog of my own at the moment. I live alone and would love to board your dog when you go out of town on the weekends so that I have someone to play with, snuggle with, and keep me company. I am not doing this for the money, but rather the fun of playing with and loving dogs! I have had golden retrievers my whole life and since moving to the city, am far away from my parents’ golden pup, Maddie. Looking to fill the void of being dog-less by meeting some furry friends who need pet-sitting. I will take on long walks, keep to a strict pet friendly diet, and ensure your pup is loved while you are away. Happy to host your dog at my home or house-sit at yours if it is conveniently located to me. Depending on location, I am also available to pet-sit during the week.

Laura was terrific. From the moment she came by for a meet & greet, our dogs were immediately comfortable with her. She is personable, responsive, and flexible. She offered to stay longer or even to come back if our travel plans were to change. Throughout the short stay, she sent us plenty of updates, pictures, and videos. When we returned home, our dogs looked happy and our apartment was in great condition. We would definitely use Laura again and recommend her as a sitter.

Laura house sits and watches our two pups when we go away. She is reliable and will send us pictures everyday. We trust her whole heartedly with our dogs and our home. We’ve known Laura since she was 10 years old. She babysat our kids when they were younger, and now she babysits our dogs. Sometimes she’ll watch them up to two weeks! We are able to travel to visit long distant family and have peace of mind that our loved ones are being well cared for and loved while we are gone.

Information Laura Q. would like to know about your pet

I have a soft spot for Golden Retrievers but will welcome any well-behaved dog. Preferably not a dog that barks non-stop, for my neighbors’ sake. I live in a 4th floor walk up, so dog must either be able to climb stairs or be small enough for me to carry.

A typical day

Walk around Astoria, go to a dog park, I have a car, so we could even escape the city and go exploring on some local hiking trails!
