Greetings! I am Laurie Barrera from the beach in Southern California. I have lived in Idaho for 40 years and have always been an animal whisperer. In fact, when I lived in Ketchum, friends would call me to help find their lost cats. I’ve got some great stories to tell! I had two amazing labradoodles in the past, Zeke was my first doodle, Murphy my second doodle. I made the decision to dog sit so that I can get my dog fix and help folks in the Treasure Valley when they leave town.



Dog sitting at my house or yours, depending on you and your pet's needs. We always bcan walk. hikje, play with tails wagging. You tell me the pet's daily routine, and I will follow instructions. I provide a detailed intake form so that we are clear on duties, exercise, medication. House instructions in writing are very helpful! References upon request.


From our family's first dog, Sparky, to dogs I have loved in adulthood, dogs are an integral part of my daily life. Since losing my boy, Murphy in May, I decided to dog sit to give my love to friends and family's pets. Know that they will be spoiled!
