I work from home, so I’m available all day to care for your doggo. I wake up early, around 6:30 each morning to get started on “dog chores” (potty time, breakfast, cuddles, playing ball, etc.) before I start my work day.

Information Laken U. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any routines you’d like me to follow. I love a list, so if that’s your thing, great! If your dog has specific needs or quirks, just give me the run-down.

A typical day

We will play toys, get pets, ear scritches, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to throw the ball or play tug til their heart’s content. If they’re more low-key and only want to snuggle on the couch, I’ve got a lap for them.

Pet care experience

I have two dogs, a cavapoo (Mouse, 4 years old) and a cockapoo (Remy, 3 years old). I have had them since they were puppies, needing potty breaks every 30 minutes! I’ve taught them to sit, lay down, give a paw, roll over, and ring the bell to go outside. My family have dogs as well, so when we get together I’m used to having five dogs in the house at the same time.

Laken was awesome. We needed a last minute sitter for the day and she was very accommodating. Laken sent pics and kept us informed. Thor came back very happily. I would recommend Laken to anyone.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
