Pet care experience

Energetic, love to spoil!

I have 5+ years of dog walking/sitting experience. I am a volunteer at a local animal shelter and love being around and taking care of dogs. I will love your dog like he/she is my own. If your dog isn't comfortable staying with me, I will come to their happy place. I love to cuddle and will guarantee your dog will be in great hands. I am the perfect temporary companion for your dog! I will also spoil your dog with all the love and affection and probably too many treats. I also have some experience with dog training and can work on commands that he/she already knows and possibly teach them something new! As an added bonus, I am a photographer and will spoil you with all the amazingly adorable photos of your fur baby while they are in my care.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately I am unable to host your pets at my home, due my current dog, but I will treat your home as if it were my own. I will clean up after myself, tidy up, and make sure to pick up any poop in the yard and of course on walks. I am here to help give your dog a well-deserved potty break, walk or fun adventure while you are away. I was on staff and currently volunteer at an animal shelter so you can trust I will care for your pets in the most humane and safe way possible.

Thank you very much Lauren, for taking such great care of my little Sparky, I appreciate that you let him on the sofa and bed, and that you have a fenced in yard, he likes to check out his territory and to guard you, you are a doll, thanks for caring!!

Lauren was absolutely fantastic. Not only was our dog happy and well cared for, but also Lauren basically did a photo shoot with her and sent us awesome, edited pictures. Will definitely be using Lauren again!

Lauren was wonderful. She sent us lots of updates and photos while watching our dog Ziggy. She even took him on outings and hikes. Her home was very neat and clean and Ziggy loved her fenced yard. It was clear that Ziggy enjoyed his time with Lauren. I also appreciated that she was flexible with us on pick-up and drop-off times because our plans changed as our time away approached. We will definitely use Lauren again for walking and dog sitting.

Lauren was amazing! Her house is very clean and comfortable the backyard is fenced and my dogs had an amazing time! The added bonus is she takes amazing photographs I can't wait to have them printed so I can hang them in my house!!

Lauren is an excellent pet sitter! She can match any dog’s energy level whether they are couch potatoes or love hiking. She’s extremely caring and attentive and will send loads of photos and updates! She is great with my pit bull and even has experience with more difficult dogs. I would trust her with my dog anyway. Pippa loves Lauren!

I've known Lauren for over 15 years, and she is the best! Great with your pups, very engaging and 1000% trustworthy. My dogs love her, and so do I!

Schedule

I work part-time so there is plenty of time for me to take your dog on a walk or simply let out for a potty walk while with you are at work or away from home.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Lauren can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I would really like to know how well they are with other dogs, training level, any precautions that need to be taken on walks, or if they have any issues or concerns with children, cats, bikes, reactivity, wildlife, etc. The more I know, the more fun we can have!
