Pet care experience

Dogs are like people, just better.

I'm 36 years old and had a dog for 14 years but passed a couple years ago. He was also diabetic for 4 years and I have experience with giving insulin. I also got 2 months worth of dog behavior training when I worked at a doggy resort. I work from home so it's a perfect situation for me to take care of your pups. I love taking walking breaks from my work day so your pup will get plenty of walks in if they want to. I absolutely adore dogs, friends & family have looked to me to take care of their pets while they were away. My dog was like my son, so I will treat your dog like he/she is a member of the family.

Pet Mom Vacation! Laura, thank you for taking such good care of my Rudi! The pictures and text messages you sent allowed me to really enjoy my trip -knowing that my Rudi was happy and well taken care of! For all of my fellow “Pet Parents” I highly recommend Laura R. For the calm, professional and caring she showed my beloved Rudi.

Laura was a life saver! We booked her last minute when we were in a bind and it turned out to be amazing. She was very communicative every step of the way and made sure we knew Nola was in great hands. Highly recommend !

Laura watched our 10lbs beagle pekingese puppy for a weekend. She treated our baby like her own and made sure he had plenty of playtime and snuggles. She communicated with us during Scouts stay with us sending us photos which we really appreciated. Laura took him on walks at the park near her house to be sure he got his exercise. We will be using Laura again soon!. Thanks Laura

Safety, trust & environment

Your pup will be safe in my home. I do not have a fenced yard but there's plenty of space to go on walks and will be leashed. A lot of my neighbors go on walks with their dogs in the neighborhood. Your dog's happiness & safety is always number 1 and I'm always available via text if you want to check up. I'll send you adorable photos too :)

A typical day

There's a local doggy park nearby in valley cottage that I can take your pup too. I also live walking distance to Congers Lake and a 5 min drive to Rockland Lake.
