Laura took such great care of my dog, Zora, while I was away. This was Zora’s first time staying with someone who wasn’t family, so I was naturally a little nervous, but Laura made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. She sent regular photos and updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind, and it was clear that Zora felt completely comfortable and at home with her. Knowing that Zora was happy, relaxed, and well cared for allowed me to fully enjoy my trip. I would absolutely trust Laura with Zora again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Laura was great with both pups with both needing some sort of specialized attention during their stay. Communication was great and she was flexible with adjusting to drop off and pick up times.

Safety, trust & environment

I discuss the pet’s needs, circumstances and personality with the owner, then provide the care to meet those requirements in a way is compatible with your preferences. In my home, pets are treated like family, with love and respect. I ensure a safe environment by keeping areas designated for each pet's comfort. For example, my cats have their own space away from the dog. While our dog is crate trained, we typically don't use it as someone is always home. However, if your dog prefers or needs a crate, I'm happy to accommodate. Rest assured, whether in my home or yours, your pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities.

Pets

A typical day

When I am with your dog I make sure they get all of their energy out. I like to take them on a walk, and take them around the block once or twice. Before watching you dog I will talk to you and ask about their recall abilities and once your dog and I have a level of trust, I am okay with taking them off leash to a field, and play fetch with them. This will only happen with your approval and after talking to you.

Before going out on a walk or before a house stay/home stay with your dog I think it is very important to talk to you about your dog, and your dog’s capabilities because you know your dog the best. I will also go over the rules and routines you have in place because it’s important to provide the same structure to the dog while you’re away.
