Active & Experienced Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I’m a very active remote worker, happy to take care of dogs here in Brooklyn until I am able to get my own. I've been a dog lover since I was little, growing up with 2 Fox Terriers and even working my first job as a teen at an upscale dog daycare. With lots of experience taking of care of dogs, I understand the importance of specific instructions for different dogs. I’m well-versed on training/handling, and very gentle and patient with all dog sizes and personalities. I walk and run often and live right by to Fort Greene park, so I love to bring dogs along!

Lauren was great! Easy to communicate with, flexible, and Bean seemed thrilled. 10 outta 10.

We called last minute on a Friday to attend a wake - Lauren answered promptly - came right over - sat with Albert - quick easy professional interaction. We will use Lauren again - Hey Rover - you should update this app so the calendar also helps sitters and owners out with parts of the day people are available - say moring afternoon evenings ! Make it very hard to find someone for emergency sitting - a relatively easy task that forced us to write to many people.

Lauren was great! She not only took care of our dog, but also took him out to parks and we always knew Benji was in good hands. Would highly recommend!

Lauren has taken care of my Labradoodle for years now, and she is awesome! I highly reccomend her, she's great with my dog and I will continue to call her when I need a dog sitter!

Very attentive and experienced dog sitter. My apartment is very dog friendly, and it’s important to me to make sure foods or other objects are not in the reach.

Information Lauren D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any unique fears your dog has, if they’re not friendly with other dogs, any illnesses or allergies I should be aware of, etc

A typical day

I love walking/jogging in Fort Greene and Prospect Park, or just hanging out watching movies if the dog is more mellow. I work remote, so I’ll be home a lot with the dog for pretty relaxed weekdays with a few walks/runs mixed in. On weekends I love bringing the dogs around for errands and coffee dates with friends!
