Hiya! I’m Laura, and I hope you’ll consider me to board or visit your pets, take them on long walks and talk to them like they know what I'm saying. While I currently work in fisheries, I started off my career in husbandry at the Houston Zoo and Florida Aquarium where I took care of anything from river otters to goats to octopuses. I love animals, and I'd love to help ease your mind that your animal is okay and in good hands when you're at work or on vacation.

Lestat enjoys being able to run around in the backyard, exploring alone or with the other pups. He’s usually more interested in people than other dog’s, but at Laura’s house he enjoys having other four legged friends around. I know he’s safe & entertained when he’s there. Will book again.

Lestat came home and went straight to sleep! All the fun he had running with the owners’ dogs kept his busy and happy all weekend long!

Lestat loved the larged fenced yard for running around and the dog friendly interiors for lounging. The host dogs welcomed him and became fast friends. As soon as we picked up Lestat he went to nap, exhausted from an exciting weekend.

Schedule

I work in an office 9-5, but when I’m home the pups are spoiled with love and activity. My husband and I live on a beautiful fenced property next to Langan park with our two pups. After a long day of work, it's a great thing to play some fetch, take a walk through the pine forest and destress for both me and the pups.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets in the home are pretty much free to roam as long as I'm home. If pups are used to being left out while owners are away, we are happy to leave them out with our pups as well. If they’re used to being kenneled, we have a large wooden kennel with a dog bed and toys for while we’re away. We do our best to maintain your pet’s home routine to make the transition to our home as seamless as possible!

Pets

A typical day

We have a lot of yard, so especially in the evenings and on weekends, the pups and I will be outside, playing fetch, weeding and watering the garden. During the summer we set up a little kiddie pool and sprinkler to keep the dogs cool and energized- our golden and lab just love if.

I am more than willing and able administer medication. For stays in my home, all feeding between your dogs and my dogs will be done separately to prevent any unwanted events. I will send updates on your pups at least every few hours. I am also willing and able to take care of any small pets or aquariums that need tending while you’re away.
