I have experience with dogs ranging from little baby doggies to the giants of giants and I love them all. I ABSOLUTELY will take pictures of your furbaby so fully expect picture updates along the way. I have experience with diabetes in dogs so I’m good with giving insulin injections as well as taking blood for blood sugar checks. I’ve dog sat for friends/family/neighbors and my priority is to always treat every pup as my own. I have 8 years experience house sitting/checking in/dog walking for others and 11 years personal experience. I’m a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies!

About: I have over two years of professional kennel experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. I'm skilled with puppies, seniors, medication routines, and building trust with shy or anxious animals. Every pet I meet gets the same love and attention I give my own. I'm available throughout the day for walks, playtime, and companionship. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, so it feels completely natural to make time for your pets, too. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and cared for like they're my own. I stick to your routines, keep a close eye on details, and make sure everyone feels at ease.
About: My love for dogs began at a very young age, nothing can make me happier. I assisted my mom in running her kennel for many years, (we had 6 of our own) i was able to learn a lot from that and even got familiar with delivering puppies and working with dogs on behavioral issues before they were placed into their permanent homes. At 18 i got a job working as a kennel technician at a local pet shoppe, after showing my hard work and dedication i was given their assistant manager title! and i now own 2 dogs of my own, Everest & Copper. I am always willing to see if i can make something work out! i have a job but consistent hours can be a struggle within my work place. I truly believe that its all up to the owner, every dog is very different and has their own schedule and way they like to do things ! communication and listening to my clients is very important to me in order to make sure I'm respecting wishes and making their pup comfortable and happy as possible during our times spent together.
“Lauren was a pleasure to work with and having her help was greatly appreciated and our pups enjoyed her visiting ! She's very responsive and takes in feedback very well! I would recommend her to others.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5. My brother was very active in the dog community and often took me with him. I took care of his Rotwilliers whenever he vacationed and had several dogs of my own. I have been a dog sitter for friends and family my whole life and have taken care of dogs for my nanny families in the past! I am currently a part-time nanny, but fit in dog care in my off time! I only work two full days a week, Monday and Thursday, so I have plenty of time for my puppy friends! I love to help out other dog parents and want to make dog care my full-time job. When caring for a dog in another home, I can easily follow instructions you leave for me. I can walk the dogs on a leash, take them to dog parks, or play with them in my own yard. If a dog has to come home with me, I have a large home with plenty of yard for them to run and play in. I have small crates at my own home if needed. I have experience with giving dogs medication due to my own senior dogs and my French bulldog who has had allergy issues.
About: Family and friends have always relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their pets. Animals are my passion and it's a joy to make them happy. They need love and compassion, no matter what. I have a soft spot for senior cats and dogs, and it's a joy to provide them with comfort. I especially love working with shy cats who don't like strangers! I always get them to break out of their shell and into my lap 🥰 I put in the extra effort to make sure all animals in my care have an incredibly fun time! Nothing is more fulfilling than doting on them and providing relief for their caring owners! I have an open schedule all week, and can care for your pets any time of day, or for an extended period of time. My availability is very flexible and I'm always eager to work around everyone's schedule so your babies have the care and attention they deserve! Your pets will be safe and at ease with me. I'm respectful of their emotions and boundaries, and ensure that they know I'm only there to dote on them.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
