We sit, we stay, we come when called...

See the fun adventures your pups will have in our care
Instead of kenneling your pet and exposing him to stress and disease, let him stay at home, lounging in his favorite spot. Both dogs AND cats get stressed out by too many changes. Friends and neighbors caring for your pet can be unreliable- you get what you pay for. This is a business and we take the care of your pet very seriously.

Your dog should be visited a minimum of 3 times a day, sleepovers are available as well. Typical visits will be 7-9am, 3-5pm, 9-11pm, unless otherwise specified. Visits are 20-30 minutes and include a walk, feeding, watering & dispensing meds if necessary. Extra loves provided at no charge! :-)

Your cat should be visited daily. They will be fed, litter scooped & played with (cat-willing!)

Your mail and paper will be brought in and your plants watered (upon request), giving you the added benefit of having your house look lived in.
* Visit times may be extended for an additional fee.

Rates

Rates vary depending on the amount of pets you have, their sizes (i.e., how much work they are), and your location.
Visits start at $18 for 1 dog, $22 for 2.

  • Boarding (in our home) rates are: $65/24 hour period (for 1 dog, $90/2). The rate includes drop off & pick up* & your dog will be included in all of our walks/social hours- unless your dog isn't up to it! We will only take in 1-2 dogs at a time & your dog will not be crated unless necessary, just part of our family. :-)

*drop off/pick up only offered in our service area, depending on which house the dog will be boarded in. Outside the area the dog must be dropped off.

  • NEW! BOARD & TRAIN! Come home from your vacation to a happy, better behaved dog! Your dog will be kept here with me at my home (no cat-aggressive dogs allowed please). Your dog will come out with Cleopatra & me dog walking ALL DAY LONG. He will be well-exercised, obedient trained & properly socialized by the time you pick him up. With 5 days booking, a private training session is included at the end of your stay (when you have settled in from your trip & have time). $85/day

BONUS! Each week-long sitting assignment receives a BONUS double visit to give your pet extra companionship time! We will hang out with your pup, rubbing his belly watching TV, giving him a playdate with a buddy or just a fun car ride out doing errands- anything to keep him company while you are away...   Cat Sitting Form        Dog Sitting Vacation Coverage Form

Weezie
"Weezie is a bit 'spirited', and Laurie handles her just fine! She is a great addition to Weezie's circle of friends!"
-Amanda, client since 12/02
p.s. by 'spirited, she means "she likes to use me as a human scratching post! Yikes!"
- Laurie

Sam
"Laurie is a lifesaver. When my dad was real sick in Florida I had to get down there and didn't know what to do with my dog Sam. I was never comfortable with having a stranger come into my house, but I had to get to get there. I e-mailed Laurie and she responded quickly to my problem. She came to my house and Sam and I met her. It was the best phone call I ever made. She has watched Sam several times now and she is great. Sam loves her and I am so comfortable with her that she has a key to my house."

Jessie
"Jessie is our baby & Laurie took care of her when we went to Paris. She did a great job & I highly recommend her!"
- Dane, client since 6/02

Billy T & Susan B
"Our cats mean a great deal to us and Laurie understands that. From Day One she asked us very specific information related to our cats' diets, health, likes and dislikes. I feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. And the other great thing about her is that she is extremely flexible! There have been times when an unexpected trip for work comes up for one of us and the other one can't be home until late and she can help us out in a pinch."
- Marlene, client since 5/01

Maņana
"Maņana is more than just a dog to me; she's my family. It's very important to me that the people who care for her when I'm not here treat her like family, too. And Laurie and Anna definitely do that! She's happy and healthy and loved...I couldn't ask for anything more!"
