Dog mom excited to share my home!
Pet care experience
Hi! A little about me, I like many others, have been working from home during covid and would like to take this opportunity to start a little side hustle! I have over 10+ years of experience taking care of my own dogs (from puppy to senior). I have also participated in fostering programs. With this, I have fostered dogs including two puppies that were too young for adoption (so cute!!). I also used to work at a vet clinic and have a great understanding of dog behavior. I currently have a 60 pound baby, Cooper. He LOVES his friends the most! He loves sharing toys, playing, and showing his friends his home. Sorry, if your dog is not dog friendly, or does not share well (food, toys, treats) we will not be able to accept. I am open to (and prefer) having you and your pup meet us before any (in-home) services are scheduled!
Reviews
Whenever I'm out for a long day at work or have a little bit of travel, I always look to Lauren as my go-to sitter for my puppy, Ann Perkins! She has been doing these drop-ins for me for awhile now Annie absolutely loves her. She's so communicative, very attentive, and is just all around a kind and trustworthy sitter. Highly recommend her to anyone!!
Lauren is awesome! She is responsible and very communicative… and wonderful with doggies!
Lauren was fantastic and my normally skittish pup warmed up to her quickly! Not only was she communicative and thorough in with her check-in, but she put up with my nervousness in relying on someone I didn’t know coming into the house and checking on my dog. 10/10 would recommend!
Lauren and copper were great with my pup! He had a wonderful time!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Since I have had a high energy dog for four years I am well versed with safe play time for dogs! Safety is the most important aspect to any job I take!
Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know who your dog handles other dogs. Does he/she pull on the leash? Any triggers to anxiety/aggression? Where he/she loves scratchies the most!
A typical day
Stimulating a dog physically and mentally are equally as important. Quick paced walks (if it’s not too hot out) while also letting him/her sniff and use their skills will ultimately wear them out!

Availability
I work remote most days. I already walk my dog during most conference calls so there are not many things that interfere with my schedule.
