About Laurie & James M.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Upon meeting with the pet parent, I will obtain information about each pet including, age, health history, medications, allergies, needs, likes and dislikes. I take all steps and precautions to keep the pet safe both inside and outside. I will keep distance from all other animals unless instructed by owner. I will leave the pet with fresh water, treats if allowed and a smile on their face.
Information Laurie & James M. would like to know about your pet
Any chronic or acute illness or injuries, medications and how the owner prefers they be given, allergies, behavioral issues including reactive or aggressive behavior toward other dogs, also toward people and what incites the behavior. All contact information including vet and emergency vet for off hours. Any additional Instructions per owner.
A typical day
I love to exercise dogs through long walks but I also like to stimulate their minds. I like to play games such as hide and seek or It’s Your Choice. I also like to bring mental management games that include treats permitted by the owner.

Pet care experience
When you are working long days, when your dog needs some extra exercise or your cat needs belly rubs … call me! My name is Laurie and I love all animals. I have been caring for pets for more than 10 years. I compete and train agility dogs and am use to dogs with high energy. I am a nurse and have taken classes in pet emergencies. I recently became certified in pet massage. I am dedicated, responsible and trustworthy. I love long walks, playing tug and just sitting and giving some love to my four legged friends. You will never have to worry about your babies, I will care for them as I love and care for my own.
Reviews
Follow up to earlier review. Jim and Laurie are the best. They take care of their charges like they are their own. They take even better care of the owners😊. Last minute add-ons, dealing with the app, filling water bowl when I forget…. Worth every penny they earn.
Laurie & James M. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
I always have a hard time leaving pets behind but Laurie and James do such a great job with Ivy and give me peace of mind while I’m away!
We are so grateful for Laurie and James! I love getting detailed updates and pics after every visit. My pups love them!
