Pet care experience

I can provide lots of attention to your pup and lots of love. I have a lot of availability on the week days and weekends to take your dog in my home and I have a very loving 7 yo king Charles cavalier who would love an extra companion for some playtime. I am organized and reliable, and will provide daily updates to you while you are gone. I live in a comfy 1 bedroom apartment, and all dogs have free reign of the space, including the bed and a plethora of fleece blankets :) Plenty of fresh water is available at all times. I have years of experience working with a Philly based pet walking company as well as volunteering to walk dogs at several Doggy Style Pets in Philadelphia. I love learning about dogs (they are my favorite things in the world!) and I have listened to and read many many dog training books. My favorite is “the other end of the leash.” I make many trips to the Carpenter Green Park and go on long walks around the Grad Hospital neighborhood with my Sophie in order to make sure she gets proper exercise. We love going into Rittenhouse and exploring as well. Sophie is always on a leash and she is very friendly. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have and I would like to meet you and your dog.

My dog Lilah had the best time with Lauren while we were on a week-long trip! She was communicative and sent updates daily! Our dog seemed so comfortable there with her and Sophie and had the best time. It was great to know that Lilah was in such good hands!

We've used Lauren a bunch for Beluga, each time we get the most heartwarming updates-- it's clear he has the best possible time at Lauren's and that her space is a loving, fun, enriching one for him.
