Laura was amazing, and she just radiates joy. She was so good with my Winston and made him feel right at home. She was very attentive to his needs, taking him for walks, and keeping me updated throughout the stay. I will be rebooking with her in the future!

Laura did a fantastic job watching my girls while I was away for the weekend! Laura was very kind, her dog was sweet, and I knew they were going to be well taken care of the moment I dropped them off. She also had great communication / updates throughout their stay! My pups came home as happy as ever, thank you so much!

My pup came home happy and tired after her stay with Laura and her pup. Laura was communicative and accommodating with my last minute booking request. I received photos and updates during the booking. I will definitely book with Laura again!

Laura did such a wonderful job watching my dog! She took amazing care of her and made sure to send me photo updates every day. My pup looked so happy and clearly loved spending time with her. I would absolutely recommend Laura and will be reaching out to her again next time I travel!

Laura and Adam were completely amazing!! It was our first time getting a dog sitter and they set us at ease and Rosie made a best friend with Lulu! It really meant so much to us that they sent a bunch of updates and took her on great walks! She came back happy and had as much fun as we did on our vacation!

Schedule

We live in an apartment steps away from the Greenbelt trail system. Lulu and I take several short walks during the day plus a long evening walk—perfect for exercise and fresh air. She’s a social butterfly who loves meeting new friends, so your dog will enjoy lots of playtime, companionship, and come home ready for a good night’s sleep!

Safety, trust & environment

In our home, I make it my priority to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. From feeding times to walks and play sessions, I’ll follow your instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs, favorite activities, or quirks that make your pet feel at home.

Pets

A typical day

Lulu and I love getting outside or lounging on the couch watching movies. She’s a big fan of long walks and sniffing every interesting scent along the way. Most days, we start with a 30-minute morning walk, enjoy plenty of potty breaks and short strolls throughout the day, and wrap up with a relaxing hour-long evening walk. Of course, I’m happy to adjust our outings to match your pup’s energy level and favorite activities—whether that’s extra playtime, more cuddle breaks, or a slower pace for leisurely sniffing.

The more I know, the better I can care for your pup! Please share anything that will help make them feel comfortable and relaxed while they’re with us. If they have any quirks or sensitivities—like reactions to other dogs, loud noises, or bikers—let me know so I can make sure their time here is safe, stress-free, and full of tail wags.
