Striving to Give Your Baby the Best

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Laken. For the past 16 years, my life has revolved around animals. I was raised with (and by) Airedales Terriers, a stubborn, smart, and incredibly loving breed. I went to college at Del Val University, where I took several courses that revolved around the care of small animals, including cats and dogs. I worked as an Assistant Groomer/Kennel Attendant at a boarding kennel and cattery and a Kennel Attendant at a dog walking/training kennel as well as assisting my family as hobby breeders and AKC Confirmation show handlers. With over 5 years of professionally caring for people’s “kids”, I have worked with dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and abilities/disabilities. I have experience with giving medications (orally, IM, SubQ, and intra-nasally) and I’ve been educated in the basics of dog first aid and CPR. I’ve worked with and assisted in training dogs of all ages and sizes, so you can be confident that your pup won’t develop bad habits during our time together (hopefully). Most importantly, I’ll love your dog like he/she is my own. While they’re with me, they’ll get plenty of pets, kisses, love, and the occasional treat. You want the best for your baby, and I’ll do my best to provide that. Unfortunately, I am unable to do weekday drop ins and walks between 7:30 am and 5:00 PM. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. 😊

Larkin was excellent! She is conscientious, great with the dogs. She had to give one of the dogs medication and did a wonderful job.

I booked Laken to walk my dog Luca and she did a great job! She gave me status updates on her visit with Luca and sent me pictures, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book Laken again.

I heard about Laken as someone willing to take care of and walk dogs through a mutual friend. I have always been hesitant about handing over my puppy to a stranger that I don't know, but my friend raved about how caring and kind Laken is and her exceptional experience with all types of dog breeds. I decided to give her dog caregiving skills a chance while I was on a week long vacation and I am eternally grateful I did. Not only did my fur baby seem relaxed and ecstatic to be in Laken's company, she has a true natural gift with dogs! I enjoyed the updates she gave me and pictures she sent me when I missed my little baby's face. My baby is a bit finicky and temperamental at times, but Laken knew exactly how to handle her in order to make my baby fall in love with her. I wish all dog walkers were as kind and passionate as Laken!! 10/10 would recommend her services!!

I have known Laken for a long time and have always known her to be a kind, caring and trustworthy individual. I think that she would be an excellent addition to the Rover team as someone who has owned dogs her entire life and knows how to take care of them, big and small. I have seen Laken handle many different dogs in many situations and every time she pays exceptional attention to how the pets were reacting to situations and how they were doing over all. Laken is reliable and friendly and would be a great Rover member!
