Dog Lover Home During Work Day

Pet care experience

My husband and I love dogs, so your dog will be in great hands! I am a stay at home mom with an infant, so any dogs we care for must be good with kids and babies. As I am home during the work day, I am happy to accommodate mid-day walks, and anything else your dog is used to in his or her typical schedule. My husband had several dogs growing up, but we do not currently have any pets of our own. We both have plenty of experience dog walking & dog sitting for friends and neighbors, as well as living with roommates who had dogs. We miss having pets around, and would love to spoil your pets while they come to stay with us! We live on the border of DC/MD, and are available to care for your precious pets while you are away. We can happily host your dogs in our apartment, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are safe and comfortable during your travels. We hope to meet you and your fur-babies soon! :)

Laura and her husband took EXCELLENT care of Rooney. We needed last minute care after our usual sitters fell through and we were very nervous about leaving him with strangers. Laura and her husband set our fears at ease immediately and kept us in the loop with daily updates and pictures. He came home happy and obviously well taken care of. We couldnt be happier!!!

Laura is a fantastic cat sitter! I felt very comfortable knowing my pet was in good hands. She was extremely flexible and helpful and I would book with her again in a heartbeat. The photo updates were very much appreciated by my family. 5 stars!

Laura is a great sitter - she is very communicative and sent us text updates while we were away. She was also flexible with times of departure and arrival, which we appreciated tremendously. Highly recommended.

Laura is awesome! She stayed at my house and cared for my old cat and dog. She definitely made my trip better by giving me peace of mind that my four legged housemates were in good hand. Thank you Laura!!

Information Laura W. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting your dog I would love to know about their personality and typical schedule. I am happy to follow any and all instructions so your dog is comfortable during his or her stay! I would also like to know if your dogs has been around children and babies.

A typical day

First and foremost our neighborhood is great for walks! Your dog will get a minimum of 3-4 walks per day, playtime with small toys in the living room, lots of snuggles on the couch, feeding and water in the kitchen, and a comfy place to sleep in our bedroom or the living room. We live near several other parks and enjoy spending time outside. We will make caring for your dog as individualized as possible! And I will, of course, send detailed updates and adorable pictures of pets while you are away :)
