Pet care experience
Where Every Dog Feels at Home 🐾
Over the past two years, we’ve had the privilege of caring for more than 150 dogs through Rover — from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. Each stay has helped us refine our approach to meet every pet’s unique needs, routines, and personalities. Our family has always loved animals, and our three kids have even volunteered at Animal Allies, learning hands-on how to care for pets with patience and compassion. Laura is home full-time, ensuring dogs are rarely left alone and always have company. We provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where dogs can play, relax, and feel like part of the family. Whether your pet loves long walks, fetch in the yard, or cozy naps inside, we make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and cared for like our own.

Wonderful house, family that made Fletcher feel welcome and safe. Communication was excellent
Nathan and Laura took such good care of our senior GSD! He looked so happy in all the pictures :)
Absolutely wonderful family and care for my pup Ivy. She absolutely love it there and it has become a home away from home for her.
Our dog loves staying and playing at Laura and Nathan's house! She has stayed there several times now. Thank you, thank you for providing wonderful care and welcoming her into your home and family - we know she feels safe and happy with you. Thank you!
Nathan & Laura are fantastic! They have a great fenced in yard for dogs to run around and have a blast. They sent regular updates with how the stay was going and lots of photos too :) Thank you both so much!
Always a great day at Laura and Nate’s!!

Schedule
Laura is home full-time, so dogs are rarely alone and receive consistent care throughout the day. Our daily routine is designed to keep pets comfortable, active, and on schedule — just like they would be at home. • Morning: Potty breaks, playtime, and breakfast. • Midday: Walks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, and rest indoors. • Afternoon: More playtime and plenty of attention from the family. • Evening: Family dinner with the dogs nearby, evening walk, and wind-down time before bed.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
As a Rover Star Sitter with over 100 five-star reviews and no negative feedback, we take pride in providing a level of care that families can trust completely. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac with a fully fenced yard and two acres of space, giving dogs plenty of room to explore and play safely. Our home is clean, calm, and designed with pets in mind. We’re also located only 1.7 miles from the Duluth airport which works out well for people flying on vacation. We follow each dog’s routine closely — from feeding and medication to bedtime habits — to ensure consistency and comfort. Every pet we host is treated with the same care, attention, and love we’d want for our own.
Pets
A typical day
Our days start with morning potty breaks and playtime in our fenced backyard, followed by breakfast and plenty of attention. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy a mix of walks, play sessions, and downtime — all based on their individual routines and personalities. In the evening, our family enjoys dinner together — and the dogs are always part of the moment, relaxing nearby and feeling right at home. After dinner, we wind down with evening walks, snuggles, or quiet time indoors. Every dog ends their day feeling safe, loved, and part of our family.

- Before your dog’s stay, we like to learn as much as possible about their routine, personality, and preferences to make them feel at home. Please let us know about: • Feeding times, portion sizes, and any dietary restrictions • Medications or special health needs • How they do with other dogs, kids, or new environments • Any anxieties, triggers, or quirks we should be aware of • Their favorite toys, treats, or comfort routines The more we know ahead of time, the better we can provide a smooth, stress-free stay that feels just like home. We tailor our care to each dog’s needs to ensure they’re happy, safe, and comfortable from day one.
