Pet care experience

***REPEAT CLIENTS*** Please send me a message directly to inquire about availability as I am not currently posting my availability on the Rover app. If I have availability, I will then direct you back to Rover to secure the reservation. Thank you. ABOUT US: We are a family of four (Mom and Dad plus son, age 16 and daughter, age 14) with 2 fur-babies of our own! Mila (rat terrier) and Bubby (shih tzu) are both friendly, laid back 11 year old pups that we’ve had since they were around 2. I grew up with dogs and now we have 2 dogs of our own with my family. Our 13 year old daughter is a huge animal lover and she wants to work with dogs in the future. My daughter and I sometimes go to the Pet Alliance to give the dogs some extra playtime while waiting to be adopted. My son also enjoys loving on the dogs that jump up and join him on the couch, and little pups always find their way onto my husband's lap. We are a family involved Doggy Daycare where we all pitch in to love on and care for your pups like they are part of our family. ABOUT OUR HOME: We have a house with a large, fenced-in backyard with lots of room for playing and running. We live on a great cul-de-sac and are within a few minutes walk through our neighborhood to a large, quiet park where everyone loves to walk their dogs on the paved paths. We keep a gate at our front door as an extra safety precaution so no one attempts to escape as we open the front door.

Laura is phenomenal - we've used her for several trips and she takes amazing care of our 3 pups. They always get excited to head to her house and come home just as happy. They can't wait for the next trip!

Laura is a fabulous sitter for our three pups, and we've used her several times. My three always have a great time there. Laura always takes the time to send pics and let us know how they are doing. We never have to worry about them while they are there. Thank you Laura!

Laura was excellent with taking care of my two cockatoos. She was through and diligent regarding care needed. She sits with you before the booking to ensure your pups get the care you expect. She goes above and beyond. The care was awesome and our two pups had the run of the fenced in yard. They really enjoyed their stay. Laura is an amazing and excellent dog sitter!!

Information Laura W. would like to know about your pet

We would like to know feeding information and your dog’s typical routine. We would also love to know what your dog loves to do and his or her personal preferences so we can help your pup be comfortable and enjoy the time here. If your dog has any special needs, anxiety issues, or medication then all of these things should be discussed ahead of time at our Meet and Greet. We only accept dogs that are fully outdoor potty trained - no pee pads, please.

A typical day

We will provide lots of cuddling and playtime for your dog with the human members of our family. If your dog likes to play with other dogs, then they will also have playtime with our own dogs inside our home and outside in our large fenced yard. We can take your dog for walks in our cul-de-sac, neighborhood, or in the large quiet park that is behind our house with lots of paved paths. We LOVE playing fetch in our long backyard! It's a great yard for running around in! We love to receive pictures of our own dogs while we are away so of course we are happy to send you photos and video of your dogs when you are away as well! If your dog becomes in need of a bath while they are in our care (like if he gets super dirty from a rainy Florida afternoon), then we are happy to offer that as a complimentary service! Bathing requests beyond that are an additional fee. Drop-Off and Pick-Up Schedule: Drop-offs and pick-ups are by appointment, however, we can generally be very flexible to work with your schedule and desires. Appointments can generally be made during the following times: Weekdays during the school year: 8:00am to 11:00pm** Weekdays during the summer: 9:00am to 11:00pm** Saturdays: 9:00am to 11:00pm** Sundays: 8:30am to 9:30am / 12:00pm to 12:45pm / 4:15pm to 11:00pm **Some time restrictions may occur depending on our schedule for any particular day. Just like you may have an appointment, meeting, or need to drive a child to an activity, we may as well. We will always be as flexible as possible to meet your needs and desires and schedule appointment times that work well for both of us.
