Our dog is family. Having to leave a member of your family to go to work or on a vacation is hard. It's not fair that you can't bring family to some places!! That's where a great dog sitter comes in. You want someone that you know your loved one will be safe with. You want someone who you can trust in your home. You want someone who your dog feels is a part of your family. Laureen of Wag A Doodle is that person. I found her because of the other yelp reviews and was shocked by her prices. She came for an orientation the same day I called. She talked through our concerns, went on a walk with our Shepherd mix who had issues pulling, and set up a schedule for the next week. By the next day, I had a copy of her insurance forms. It's been a month and we haven't looked back. Laureen is there when we need her at a moments notice. When my husband's car broke down, she was at our house to walk Grace. When we went on vacation, she took Grace to her home so our dog wouldn't feel left alone. She has helped train our old girl to stop pulling while on a walk and even sends videos and pictures of them playing! We love Laureen! read more

Laureen has been a blessing to us. We have two special needs pups that cannot be boarded. Both pups need meds; and one is deaf and gets a little grumpy sometimes. Laureen arranges overnight care in our home, and will check on pups during the day, too. We have been using Wag a Doodle for a number of years; everything from overnight to 10 day trips. Totally happy with her services, and highly recommend. read more

I am so pleased with Laureen @Wag A Doodle Sac! I was in a pinch when my sitter backed out and after perusing online I called up Laureen for a meet'n'greet. Within a few minutes my timid lab mix adored her and I couldn't be happier! Over the past year Laureen has been trustworthy, dependable and wonderful with my dog, two cats and even the fish...whether it's just an afternoon or a week-long trip. I'm often called away last minute and Laureen is always there for us! I can always tell my dog has been well exercised and is on a schedule when Laureen is around! She is definitely passionate about pets and wants them to be healthy and happy and I appreciate how much she puts into her time with my furry babies while I'm away. Not having to worry is awesome and as a bonus her rates don't break the bank!!! read more

Laureen is an absolute life saver!!! I decided to try Wag-A-Doodle because of some changes in my professional career and I am SO glad I did! I am SO overprotective of my puppy and usually feel really nervous leaving him with extended family. With Laureen, I feel completely comfortable and at ease! She's so accommodating and understating, too. I have had to change my plans last minute MANY times and she was able to help me out. I highly recommend Wag-A-Doodle! read more

Laureen has been so amazing! Dependable, flexible, upbeat. my pup is somewhat fearful of all things but Laureen is patient and sensitive. Thank you, thank you!! read more

My husband and I couldn't be happier to have met up with Laureen! She was amazing with meeting us and our 3 critters. We were looking for someone to come and actually spend some "time" with our fur babies while we were away at work. We've been very lucky with one of her gals...let me just say all the pics we'd get from her to show us what a good time they were having put me at ease. They were very well taken care of during the week we were away. If you're looking for someone to care and love your doggies call Wag A Doodle! You won't regret it! They're the best! read more

I have been using Laureen for almost two years and don't know what I would do without her! I met her through another client of hers a and I just loved her. She has done everything from socializing to training to walking to just loving all my dogs! She is highly dependable and always does what she says she will do. I think the biggest thing is I completely trust her. She has a key to my house but, more importantly, I completely trust her with my dogs. She loves them and it shows in how they respond to her. Plus Laureen is fully insured which gives me peace if mind. Definitely use Wag-a-doodle. If anyone wants to talk to me to get further info, just let Laureen know and she'll give you my phone number. read more

My brother was getting married so we wanted to go to Missouri but our kennel was completely booked. What to do, what to do? Our senior dog had just had a surgery and was still recovering and on medications and our new cat had never been kenneled before so we got to thinking that maybe a kennel wasn't a good idea right now anyway, and especially not a brand new one they've never visited, and that they'd be more comfortable at home. That spawned an online hunt for in-home care where we saw all these wonderful Yelp reviews and gave Laureen a call. She responded quickly, came out for an consultation, the dogs took to her right then and there so we hired her. During our week of travel Laureen checked in with us, texted us photos, and stayed in touch so we never had to worry if our babies were OK. She was also honest in telling us that our cat wasn't as welcoming as the dogs and that she was wasn't able to engage with her much. She could have totally lied and said that she played with her for hours but her honesty will help us get to know our new cat better and how she may be around other house-guests in the future. She kept up with our senior dogs medications and its side-effects (Prednisone = incessant thirst / hunger / panting), played ball with our little guy, and we found them both in good health and spirits when we returned home. When Laureen stopped by to return our house key and pick up payment, both dogs went right to her and our little guy was especially happy to see her so I know they were well taken care of. I could say even more good things but I think you get the idea. In summary, you won't be disappointed. read more

Last week I had to leave town very last minute for a few days. However I couldn't find anyone to take care of my English Bully. Laureen was a savior. She was so accommodating and really helped me out, and with very affordable prices too. She did a wonderful job taking care of my boy (Bubba) She sent me regular updates and pictures of him too. When I got home I couldn't have been more pleased, and he was really happy too. If my boys happy, I'm happy too. I am also new to town so I needed to find a veterinarian in the area. Laureen referred me to one, and I couldn't be happier with her suggestion. Love my new vet, and love my new pet sitter. Whenever I need to go out of town again, Laureen will be the first person I call. read more

Like Laureen, I operate a pet sitting service and do independent dog rescue. Laureen and I collaborate on rescue and rehoming often. We place orphaned dogs, divorce dogs, street dogs. I am proud to work with someone so dedicated and ethical. Her common sense approach to rescue and dog care is unmatched. She spends countless dollars and hours helping as many digs in need as she possibly can. Sometimes people don't get what it takes to do this. Those people can be uninformed and even mislabel our work. Keep up the good work Laureen. You are a true unsung hero. Denise read more

I highly, highly recommend Laureen for your pet sitting needs. I first called her in January when I was going on a four day trip and looking for care for my then 5 month old Great Dane puppy and my two kitties. She came over for a meet and greet, and my pup and cats absolutely loved her. She was also able to recommend toys and strategies to curb some of his destructive puppy behaviors. I got pictures every time she visited during her stay, and I felt SO much better leaving my puppy for the first time knowing he was in such great care. She was very flexible about meeting our needs. After this positive experience, we started having Laureen visit daily for a dog walk four times a week to break up the long work day for our dog. I get pictures daily, which is awesome! I feel fully confident that my house will be secured after she leaves, and as a bonus she even brings in the mail, which is helpful since I almost never come through the front door. Her prices are very reasonable, and the care is consistently great! read more

Loreen and her team are simply amazing with our darling fur babies. Even the most stand-offish cat or dog will be extremely happy with the thoughtful and loving care provided. On our latest trip, our yellow lab became very ill. Loreen's team alerted us to the problem and we were able to handle treatment even though we were very far away out of town. Without the expert care and knowledge, our dog would have been in really bad shape. We highly recommend Wag A Doodle and will use them again! read more

I can't give Laureen enough praise. My animals immediately bonded with her and so did I. She has given me such peace of mind when I am at work I know my animal kids are getting her special love and attention.

I switched to her after using another service for 5 years and have not regretted it for a second. read more

Last week we went out of town for our son's college graduation and had made reservations at a local kennel for our airedale and welsh terrier.

Laureen is amazing! I was in a pinch because my regular dog sitter (grandma) was unable to watch my senior English Bulldog. My dog is NOT an easy dog to care for, he has multiple medications and has a fairly difficult walk schedule. Laureen was able to step in, at the last minute, and provide top notch care. She sent me pictures of an obviously well cared for pooch and provided text updates. All this and her prices are extremely reasonable! Could not recommend her more! read more

Laureen is wonderful! I needed to find a sitter last minute for Christmas. I texted Laureen and she was able to stop for a consultation the same day! I could tell right away that she would be great to my dogs. She's very gentle and full of great suggestions. I have a 17 year old pitbull mix that has some mobility issues and is deaf and an 8 year old chihuahua that recently had dental surgery. Laureen was great with them and had no problem giving the chihuahua her medication. She was able to squeeze us in to her already super busy holiday schedule with no problems. I will definitely be using Laureen in the future, and I highly recommend her service!! read more
