Your fur baby’s favourite sitter ❤️

Hi there! 👋 I’m Lauren! My husband, Pedro, and I are dog lovers through and through, and we can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐶 Originally from sunny South Africa, I grew up surrounded by dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. Since I moved here, I’ve had to leave my own pups back home with my mom, which is why I’d truly love the chance to spoil your dog with some extra love and attention! 🥹 We know how much you’ll miss your pup, so we send lots of photo and video updates to keep you in the loop on all the cute and funny moments we’re sharing with your dog 🫶 Our home is a cozy apartment with a small courtyard—perfect for some fresh air and chill time between cuddle sessions and long walks. Between my husband and I, there’s always someone at home to ensure plenty of walks and company. I love giving cuddles (if that’s what your dog likes too) and I love running and playing with them too! I would absolutely love to take your dog on walks, play with them, throw a ball, or even just keep them company on the couch and give them some love. I am always available on my phone to get in touch. So, if you’re looking for a sitter who’ll treat your dog like family, please get in touch! We’d love to meet you and your furry best friend. It’s our promise to look after yours as if they were our own! 🩷

Lauren was brilliant! Really good communication and sent pictures throughout the day. She really made Scoobie feel comfortable and she had the best time in Lauren’s care. Will definitely have her look after her again and can highly recommend! 😊

Murphy had a “boys weekend” with Lauren’s husband and he had a fabulous time. I felt bad leaving Murphy on one of the hottest weekends but Pedro looked after him so well. Walk times were adapted so it wasn’t too hot and he was given chews at home to keep him busy and calm. Highly recommend and will definitely book with Lauren and Pedro again.

Doggy Day Care • May 12, 2026

Eddie had a great day with Lauren, she was able to accommodate a last minute daycare request when I had to be in the office. He was initially nervous when dropped off and meeting someone new but didn’t want to come home at the end of the day, he obviously had the best time. Lauren was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates through the day. Eddie is looking forward to his next stay already.

Lauren and her husband were great. Our 18 month old cockapoo was very happy with them for the week and they sent frequent updates.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small courtyard and stay in a friendly neighbourhood with lots of areas to walk! I’m not too far from Richmond park and a few other nice spaces to play with your pet!

A typical day

I stay in the Twickenham area and there are many parks close by, so the options for fun and exciting walks are plenty! I work from home and my fiancé also spends a lot of time working from home too, so your dog will always be in good hands. Whether they want to enjoy some fetch or just relax with some cuddles, we’re happy to provide!

I would like to know if there are things that your dog doesn’t like or if they get frights with certain things. What their food routine is, if necessary and how many walks/how much exercise they need!
