Pet care experience

My house is dog heaven!

I've been a Dog Mom for most of my adult life, I currently have two. A couple of years ago I took classes to learn to groom and care for dogs. I learned dog CPR, first aid and grooming skills. I have taken care of several of my family and neighbors dogs and decided to expand. I have an entire room dedicated to dog play, grooming and sleeping. My dogs sleep with me and your dog can too if that is what you like. I also have crates if that is preferred. I have a small doggie door that leads to my backyard that is securely fenced. I also have a security gate on my front porch to prevent run aways. I will love your fur babies just like my own while they are with me!

Laurie took very good care of our dog, she kept us updated every day and she went above and beyond to keep our dog's anxiety in check. She also made sure our dog ate every day, as he's very shy when not at home. Highly recommend Laurie. Thank you.

Laurie took such good care of our sweet, sometimes anxious Cuzco. She helped him feel at home and took him on walks (his all time favorite activity) with her dogs. We got daily updates and felt he was in very good hands. Definitely recommend Laurie as a sitter.

Laurie is a perfect mix of pro and love muffin. She knows how to care for your pets needs and make sure they know that they are loved and important. I had the pleasure of being part of her dog training and education and I have taken every single one of my dogs to her. We call it "Laurie-land" and my dogs love going there so much, they can tell when we turn onto the street. She is the exact kind of person you want to look after your fur baby

Laurie is a kind, loving animal person! She's well trained in all aspects of dog grooming. My dog adores her! She's able to keep dogs comfortable and they feel safe with her. She has boarded several dogs in her home and they are always happy! Using her services will be a big plus for any dog owner! And she prices her services more fairly than a pet store!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Not only did they do an amazing grooming job, but they treated my dog like their own. It’s clear they truly love animals and take pride in what they do. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and looking fantastic. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants their pet cared for by someone trustworthy and talented.

Laurie is the best pet caregiver. She has excelled in grooming my Labradoodle, from bathing to trimming the coat and clipping the nails. My pup always enjoys her visit to Laurie. And, I love that I can board my dog at her house, with the best of care, nice walks, and playtime. I highly recommend Laurie for your next dog grooming or boarding.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two other dogs to keep your fur baby company. Sleeping arrangements are as the parents prefer, in the bed, on the floor in a dog bed or in a crate. Dogs are temporarily separated during feeding time to avoid conflicts. I stick with parents preferences on treats, eating times, etc. I will send you pictures of your dog if you want. I will love your fur baby just like my own!

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will have a mostly mellow experience with me. I will walk in the 11 acre private park and play in the backyard with him/her but nothing intense.

Spayed and neutered dogs only

I love any size dog but prefer smaller dogs at my home because of my small dogs. If the large dog is friendly to smaller dogs, I'm OK with that. Just let me know of any special needs and I will take care of it.
