With 3 younger kids at home our house is full of energy! My husband and I strive to get the pups out on a walk atleast 1-2 times a day, weather permitting during winter. My kiddos LOVE playing fetch, wrestling, or just snuggling with our client pups, and often enjoy helping feed or tiring them out every day!

About Lauren B.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
-Boarding dogs will be kept separate during feeding events (whether on a separate floor of the house, or in a dog crate during feeding time) to prevent altercations between pups. -We have a fenced in 'potty' yard for the pups, otherwise dogs will be leashed when hanging out outside with us or going on a walk. Repeat client pups may be kept off leash after comfortability has been determined and owners have agreed and are comfortable.

Information Lauren B. would like to know about your pet
-No breed restrictions here, but your dog must be dog/kid friendly -Dogs must be spayed/neutered/ up to date with rabies. -Please let me know if your dog has any allergies -Is your dog kenneled throughout the day? Overnight? -If your pup is on any medication please disclose at booking and I'd be happy to discuss further and determine their needs and how to best accommodate and match their medication schedule -Puppies are always welcome but will be kenneled overnight, no exceptions.
A typical day
-Dog boarding will include atleast 1 daily walk guaranteed, granted weather is good. We have plenty of garage space in which we pull a car out and let the dogs run around and release some energy if the weather is bad/too cold. (I have 2 dogs myself and they love new friends!) -We have lots of toys/chews for your pup during his stay but you are more than welcome to bring his own. *no stuffed animals please* -We aren't fancy here. Dogs are allowed on the couch, bed, futon, and dog beds throughout the house -Daily photos if requested. You can never have too many in my opinion :) -Dogs will be kenneled/separated during feeding times. If your dog is a free feeder he will be restricted to one floor of the home to prevent my dogs from eating his food.

Pet care experience
I know how hard it can be to leave your pup as he looks at you with those eyes as you walk through the door You know the look I'm talking about. Whether you're leaving for the day or a whole week, I would love to hang out with your pup during your time away and give him or her their daily walks, cuddles, playtime, or whatever else they may need. I also offer baths to boarders before you pick them up, and depending on pup, nail trims! Be sure to specify when booking if interested! Ask about available puppy training if interested! (Available through board and train, or weekend hourly care!) My previous work experience includes working at a doggie daycare center for 2 years, overseeing playtime, swim time, bath time, feeding, and setting up for overnight stays. Through this company I often brought home client's dogs for overnight stays if they did not want their dog staying on the facility campus overnight. I also worked as a veterinary receptionist, quickly moving up within a year, to a manager position. While here I learned a lot about pet diseases, how to best care for them, appropriately administer medications, as well as be able to quickly recognize any problems that may arise in terms of a pets health. I have had dogs since I was a little girl, and currently share my home with an old pittie mix and an energetic malmute puppy! I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and look forward to meeting yours!

Reviews
Lauren did a phenomenal job taking care of my dog.
Lauren was very responsive and took great care of my babies. Will be using her again.
This was our dog's first time being taken care of outside of our home. We were very nervous to leave him for such a long period of time, but Lauren eased our worries! Lauren was patient with Loki's first few days getting comfortable in a new place. Loki has a few medications he needs to take, and Lauren made sure to track every single pill he took. She sent us so many updates and photos of Loki having a blast with her dogs. He was having so much fun, we were worried he wouldn't want to come home with us! We would definitely book with Lauren again!
When I picked up my dog, he was calm and happy. Lauren and her family did a great job with him and I think he is a better dog after having been with them than before dropping him off! I will definitely reach out to her again if I need dog care again.
