Having a high energy dog myself, I know how important play time and exercise time is. When rest time is required a comfortable area or bed is also a must if that's what your pet loves. I offer love and security both in my home and in yours. I am a very honest, dependable, and loving person.

Laurel stayed with our very timid dog for two weeks. She did a wonderful job. We booked a few walks prior, which helped our dog get used to her. Laurel communicated regularly letting us know our dog was in good hands and doing well. Upon our return, our home was in great order. I would highly recommend Laurel.

Laurel took wonderful care of our home, our cat, and our puppy while we were away on vacation. From the start, we felt completely reassured knowing everything was in her kind and capable hands. She kept us updated with regular photo messages, which made it so comforting to see how happy and well cared for our pets were while we were away. Laurel truly went above and beyond. Not only did she provide attentive, loving care to our animals, but she also left our home absolutely pristine. It was such a gift to return from vacation to relaxed pets and a spotless house. We would not hesitate to recommend Laurel to anyone looking for a responsible, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet and house sitter.

I can’t say enough good things about Laurel, Walter and Tux. Our two dogs have some anxiety related issues, but Laurel never batted an eye. She was patient and comforting to our dogs until they got used to the routine. Now they can’t wait to go over and play with their best buddy Tux. We are forever grateful for the care Laurel provides. She is wonderful and we are very fortunate. Couldn’t recommend her more.
