Energetic and responsible dog lover

Pet care experience

I managed a cage-free dog hotel in San Francisco for three years, which jump started my career in animal care. I spent many hours managing the play yard, walks, naps, meals, etc. -- it was a lot of work, but very rewarding and fun! Any special meds, meals, restrictions are not a problem for me. I currently work in animal welfare/veterinary care in Austin for almost 4 years. Snuggles and belly rubs always included! I'm a (slow) runner training for half marathons at least twice a year (and every once in a while, I get the crazy idea to do a marathon), so if your high energy dog needs a run, I would love the company! Although I'm used to slow strolls because my curious terriers like to take their time! I have a full-time, but flexible job, so I am willing to work out what your pet needs based on your schedule.

While working side by side with Lauren for three years, she confidentally managed and lead our team at High Tail Hotel, a cage-free daycare & boarding facility in San Francisco, with anywhere between 30-50 dogs per day as well as overnight visitors. Lauren consistently provided a strong example of what it is to really go the extra mile for anyone's furry family member. She can break the language barrier to communicate with your pup in order to better understand them and in turn provide the best care and safety. As the current manager at High Tail, I wish I still had her on my team to this day! Many of the values we still hold are a direct reflection of Lauren's love and dedication. I couldn't ask for anyone more suitable to look after my pups!

I have known Lauren my entire life, and honestly she is the only person that I would trust to take care of my dogs. She is extremely responsible in all aspects and is an overall friendly and caring person. Lauren is very knowledgeable about dogs and is always someone I can count on when I need some helpful tips or advice when it comes to taking care of my own pets. Not only does she work around animals every day, but Lauren has grown up around dogs her entire life and she treats her own as if they are her children because let's face it, they really are our "furbabies". Her passion for animals of all kinds is so warming and always puts me at ease when I have to leave my pets in her care. If there is anyone I would recommend as a dog caregiver, it would hands down be Lauren!
