Safety, trust & environment

I have a huge backyard that is perfect for playing fetch or just a good place for those zoomies to get out the extra energy. I also have multipile cameras around my property that allows me to see all areas of my yard in case I need to go inside for a bit. I have a medium size shiba inu mix female dog. She is great with other dogs and loves to show them the lay of the land. I am experienced in giving medications to dog and I am happy to help keep them on their schedules. I don't usually use crates but if you are more comfortable with having your pup crated then I am more than happy to accommodate. I would request veterinary information and proof of vaccines. Meet and greet is available if you prefer.

Pet care experience

I love animals of all kinds. I have always had dogs and cats and even birds in my home. Life is just more complete when you have 4 legged family! I have rescued senior dogs and seen them through the end of life to the rainbow bridge with love and compassion. Spoiling fur babies is my favorite past time. I can't pass up a good puppy pet! Getting to know each pets individual personality is such a fun experience. I have been caring for and boarding pets for the last 10 years. I take my job in caring for your pet very seriously. I know it is difficult to be separated for any amount of time but I do whatever is possible to make your pet feel they are special. I try to only board one dog at a time (unless they are a family) in order to be able to give your pet my undivided attention. I want them to enjoy their time in my home.

Laura took such great care of our dog, Telly, while we were on vacation. She sent lots of updates with photos and Telly always looked comfortable and happy like she was on her own vacation. Laura carefully read our instructions for care and feeding at drop-off and made sure she understood Telly’s needs before we left. She even cooked Telly more chicken to top her dog food with once the chicken we provided ran out. You can tell Laura truly loves dogs and I had no worries about leaving our pup with her for the week. I would definitely hire Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog sitter!
