I’m currently working from home and have multiple breaks taking my dog on walks. I’m typically running errands Sundays and prefer an early pick up or late drop off if on Sundays. I can fit my schedule to most drop off and pick up time and days, just ask :).

Information Lauren C. would like to know about your pet

1. Can you pet be left out of the crate without being destructive? 2. Do they listen to commands? 3. Do they need any special attention for any issues? 4. Have they ever been around children or dogs, and how was the experience?

A typical day

Depending on your dog’s preferences, I usually give mine fresh air before breakfast. At lunchtime I take my pups on a nice walk, weather permitting. After my son returns from school, we take another walk and discuss our days while letting out some of the pup’s energy. Dinner for my dog is usually 5:30pm, followed by another potty break before bedtime. In between all of their outdoor breaks, bring their favorite toy and we’ll have multiple play breaks.

Pet care experience

I have been a dog lover for decades, growing up with chocolate labs. For the past 17 years I’ve had my sweet bichon/yorkie mix brother and sister (Harry and Bella), and now an 5 yo Chocolate Lab named Blu. Our dogs get along with dogs of ALL sizes. I have a fenced in backyard and and 10 year old loves to run around with the dogs and help me on walks. If you prefer walks be added to the backyard play, we have a great walk to the neighborhood park or local trails. I’m very attentive and patient, and curling up with the dogs on the couch or bed is all too common. I believe dogs are part of the family. I welcome your dogs to join the family in a caring, energetic and safe home.

Lauren always takes such great care of my mutt, and she provides photos and updates throughout the stay. She's my go-to for when I need to board the dog. : )

We've taken our dog Brandi to Lauren on several occasions at this point. Brandi loves it there, and is always extremely well taken care of.

Lauren has watched our pup twice now and it has always been a great experience. She’s been very flexible with our schedule and our pup seems to really enjoy her time there (a huge fan of their great backyard and deck!). We’re glad to have found someone we feel very comfortable with to watch our fur baby.

Lauren's place is ideal for a dog that loves to be outdoors - a large yard to lounge in - and to hang out with the family too. Our dog was very comfortable there and we will be taking him back when we make our next trip.
