Safety, trust & environment

I am dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for your pet, whether in my home or yours! My home features a secure, fenced-in backyard for playtime, balanced with relaxed walks in nearby parks or indoor playtime with those much needed naps on nastier days. When caring for your pet in your home, I'll ensure they get plenty of outdoor time with walks through their neighborhood and visits to local parks, all balanced with indoor playtime, relaxing and lots of snuggles! My intention is to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for, providing the right mix of exercise, fun, and relaxation to fit their unique personality!

Information Laura S. would like to know about your pet

To assure your babies feel perfectly cared for and loved while you are away, there are a few things that would be helpful for me to know ahead of time! I'd love to have a grasp on their daily routine, including their feeding schedule—what, when, and how much they eat. It is essential for me to be conscious of their health history, any pre-existing conditions or allergies, as well as any medications they may need! Please additionally provide contact information for their veterinarian and the nearest 24-hour emergency animal hospital. As for the specifics of their routine, please let me know about leash preferences—more comfortable on or off-leash during walks—and their general personality towards other people or animals. Finally, I'd love to hear any tips and tricks you've learned as their caretaker! Knowing their favorite toy, special walking spots, or anything that brings them joy to help me create the perfect impression for your furry family member!

A typical day

I love creating a fun and energizing environment for every Fur-Baby! My adventures with your babies will include plenty of catch, leisurely walks, or even exploring a new park—no matter the weather, we'll find a way to have fun! On days we prefer to stay in, we can have a peaceful afternoon of cuddles or an indoor game of chase. My goal is to create wonderful memories and a personalized experience for your pet!

Laura was great with communication, very professional and so great with my pup! She was able to help me out last minute. After meeting her, I could tell she genuinely loves animals so I knew my dog was in good hands.

Laura took good care of my boys. She sent updates & pictures. She carried my mini dachshund around, as required by his medical condition. She gave my other dog plenty of snuggles. She gave me peace of mind. I apologize for the lateness of this review!

Laura cared for my two large and high-need dogs for 10 days in my home. Half of those days, I did not have cell service. She communicated regularly and dealt with odd things that came up without my assistance. She left my home spotless, and my dogs were peaceful and calm when I returned home! I feel lucky to have found Laura!
