Hello👋 I’m Lauren! A proud dog mamma & a real lover for all dog breeds! (Experience with Puppy and Senior dogs- I’m experienced with administering oral medication/vitamins & taking care of special needs) Growing up, I always had a fur friend at home & started dog sitting when I was a middle schooler; My love for animals started then & has blossomed! They are truly medicine for our souls! 🙏🙏 Count on me to care for your fur friend/s like they are my own🫶 Boarding overnight/Doggy Daycare/Scheduled Walks/Check-ins to keep your furbabe/s entertained, comforted & highly cared for. Play time/interaction with dog toys, walks, & play with me & my pups are valued. (Fetch, chew sticks in shade & sun) I can offer a fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam! 🐾🐾🐾 I have 2 Bernese Mountain boys.

We rescued our 2nd Bernese, Gus, he is 3 years & is also playful, lovable & friendly with other pups! loves outdoor playtime, treats and naps. 🖤 Let me know if you want a meet & greet & tour to secure your pets time here.

Lauren, was one of the sitters we ever had. She gave us updates throughout the weekend and her other dogs were so good with our Olivia.

Lauren is the most amazing sitter we’ve had for Bear! She sent so many pictures and even got him to eat his food while we were away (which he never does!). He was so well taken care of.

Oakley loves staying with Lauren! He loves being able to run around and chill in the yard with the other low energy dogs. We love Lauren because she’s always on top of pictures of our boy for us!

A typical day

I love to accommodate dogs of all energy levels! I’m able to take strolls in the neighborhood and play in my fenced in backyard- especially for the high energy pups! Having a good- sized fenced-in backyard provides lots of room to roam for dog play, fetch and chillin- especially for the low energy pups! I offer treats and ice cream pup cups for good behavior (let me know if allergies) and lots of belly rubs (and can brush their hair if they like that❤️) Happy to help & accommodate needs for your pup! I’m excited to meet your fur baby/babies for a future stay with me! Contact me if you’d like to schedule a Meet & Greet prior to your booking. I am fully available most Friday/Saturday/Sunday’s unless I’m traveling. (Open to earlier drop-offs & in pick-up times as well) My open weekends I keep a handful of slots open for dogs that get along with other dogs to book me and embrace some dog play and a safe place to chill. I make sure all pup- parents are aware of all bookings.
