💥 ATTENTION 💥

For my clients who tip, I’m having the HARDEST time reconciling the tips through invoice payments. When you receive invoices, do you see the option to tip with the percentages? If y’all don’t see that option please let me know! You have to click one of those for Quickbooks to log and accept the tips. If you just pay a different amount than the invoice, it throws us off and we can’t reconcile! Please let me know if you guys can see the tip option on the invoice! Thank y’all for being patient while I figure all of this out! ❤️

Happy Thursday from Home Away From Home! ❤️

💥 PEOPLE PAYING INVOICES💥

Please don’t pay through these invoices right now. I’m having trouble figuring out what’s going on. There are fees that it’s charging me that I didn’t know about and there’s money unaccounted for. I still don’t know what I’m doing with these and have been trying to practice, so right now, please pay cash, Venmo directly to me or card like usual until further notice! Bank transfers and card payments through these invoices are charging me a fee and taking up to 5 business days to deposit. So please no more paying through the invoices for now! Please pay like usual! Thank you!

Good morning everyone!

PLEASE help me wish our Rachel a happy birthday today! Rachel is my right arm and most of you know and love her. She has been there for me for almost 15 years through ALL ups and downs. I’d be lost without her!

Happy birthday Rachel! We love you so much! 🎉

A gross, rainy day for us but we always make the most of it! ❤️ 🐾

What a fun birthday party with these PAWty Animals! I couldn’t get pictures of all the pups out here with their snacks because it was COMPLETE chaos and I needed to pay attention because lots of dogs and food all together get tricky. But they all had the BEST time!

Our sweet Rye turns FOUR today! This guy. I truly love him like my own pup. I would be lost without him and his mama! He has been coming to me since he was a baby! Happy birthday Rye Rye! I love you SO DANG MUCH my boy! 🐾🎉

Starting January off with a full schedule and a full heart!

The rest of the month is wide open, message me to book!

This group is a half and half group, half chill, half energy! 😂 these were the best I could do for some of them. They are in constant motion until I’m sitting still like a statue, but then as soon as I move my arm for my phone everyone is up. They keep me young and on my toes, that’s for sure! But oh how I love them! This is a mix of daycare and boarders. Love these babies! 🐾

This has happened twice this week with two different clients!

If you come to pick up/drop off and you knock and I or Rachel don’t answer, give me a call! I know I’ve answered before and asked “how long have you been here!!??” 😂 I’m so sorry I don’t hear you! Sometimes depending on how many pups I have or where I’m located I don’t hear anything. ALL pups who are waiting for pick up are ready from 4-6 to be picked up. I’m so sorry I haven’t been hearing y’all! Definitely call me if you’re here and I’m not answering the door. Maybe I’m getting old 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Thank y’all!

Since this is the last day of 2024, I wanted to dedicate an entire post to my clients, my LOYAL, kind, understanding and amazing clients.

This year was quite a year. Many changes and ups and downs not only in my personal life, but also my business life. This year was the scariest I’ve ever had as a small and local business owner. There were many times I wanted to throw in the towel and give up, whether from the stupid IRS, the slowness of business in general, clients calling my phone and yelling at me, or people just being rude, unforgiving or inconsiderate in general, I can’t tell y’all how many times Rachel, Matt, James or my family heard me say that I was ready to give up. But I didn’t. Why? Aside from my people always boosting me up and not letting me quit, it’s because of my clients and their animals.

I made many mistakes this year and I fell down. While I definitely had clients (who are no longer clients lol) berate me or degrade me with words or just show no grace, I have ten times those who loved me, who understand me, who show me grace and even when I mess up or fumble, (late to a house visit or schedule something wrong) who make me feel appreciated and loved. I have clients who LITERALLY have followed me from Camp Paws (9 years ago!!!!) to a new house, through kennel cough, to another house unexpectedly, through hell and back. Those clients are now friends and family to me. I cry as I sit here and type all of this out and y’all would understand if you saw behind the scenes Laura who gets overwhelmed and cries in her bed because she doesn’t think she can take it anymore, but then remembers her “why”.

My daughter, my family, and my CLIENTS are why. Y’all, you guys carried me through the scariest months of my business owning career. I have clients who booked with me for no reason at all other than to just support me. I am able to provide for Lily and save towards a better future for us because of y’all. You all really just don’t understand how much it means to me. I’m so thankful beyond measure for each and every one of you.

As I go into 2025, my fifth year in business and my 10th working with animals, I am absolutely filled with gratitude and love. The good days ALWAYS beat the bad days and I’m so thankful to my team, my family, Matt and my clients for always reminding me of that.

To my clients, THANK YOU for your business and for supporting me, sharing my post and basically advertising for me for free, booking with me just because you want to support me, texting me to check on me, spoiling Lily, letting me be apart of your animals lives. All of it. I owe it all to y’all and I love you all so very VERY deeply.

All that said, SUPPORT AND SHOP LOCAL! 🩷 here’s to 2025, a better year and my fifth year in business! I’m manifesting greater things for Lily and I and I feel in my bones that I’m on my way.

With so much love and thanks, Laura Leigh 🫶🏻

Good morning everyone and Merry Christmas!

✨ I will not be responding to any business messages today, I will be spending time with my daughter and my family. All of the pups have had breakfast and are doing great! No news is good news, if any emergency occurs, you will be notified! Otherwise, please allow me to spend a quiet holiday with my loved ones. ✨

Thank you for understanding and I hope you all have an amazing day with everyone you hold dear! 🎄🫶🏻

Screaming HAPPY BIRTHDAY from the Home Away From Home rooftops today to my sweet Jerry Lee! (Brown we**ie 😂)

Today Jerry Lee turns 5 and I have kept him since he was SIX MONTHS! 4.5 years of this guy 2-3 times a week consistently. He has become one of my best friends and I love him to the moon and back a million times. He has grown up with Lily and she loves him and his brother so much! There are no words to describe how much this baby and his mama mean to me and Lily. He was my very first daycare pup and I’m so blessed because of that!

We love you endlessly Jerry Lee! ❤️ 🐾 it’s treat and PAWty time! 🎉
