Pet care experience
Hello there! Also know as Lulu around town, I’m a an animal fanatic to the core! Feel free to check out my Instagram @walks_n_wags_ca. I’ve taken care of pups in Mammoth Lakes for five years now. This profile is new, but my experience is not. I’ve cared for pets as long as I can remember. I grew up with a yellow lab and an orange tabby and I’ve also done rescue work and fostering. I would love to meet your furry companions and show them a fabulous time in Mammoth, one wag at a time!
Reviews
Lauren is so great with my dogs! Every time we come into town my dogs are always excited to see her in the morning and I can tell they've had attention. She makes sure the dogs get the walking milage you hope them to get in a day. She's organized and dependable, from taking our bookings over a month out to even helping us out a couple of days prior. Highly recommend!
If you are seeking a new dog walker in Mammoth Lakes, Lauren (Lulu) is your girl! Lulu takes a thorough and thoughtful approach when assessing a dog before meeting them in person. She understands the importance of gathering information about the dog's background, temperament, and any specific needs they may have. This allows her to tailor her approach and ensure a smooth and positive interaction when meeting the dog for the first time. In person, Lulu continues her assessment by observing the dog's body language, behavior, and response to different stimuli. She pays close attention to their comfort level, social skills, and overall demeanor. This helps her gauge how the dog may interact with other dogs and how they may respond to different environments and situations. When introducing new dogs, Lulu always does so in a controlled and safe outdoor space. This allows the dogs to meet and interact in a neutral environment, reducing the likelihood of territorial behaviors or conflicts. She closely monitors their interactions, intervening if necessary to ensure a positive experience for all involved. Lulu cares for each dog as if they were her own. She provides them with the love, attention, and care they need, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for. She understands that every dog is unique and has individual needs, and she goes above and beyond to meet those needs and create a positive and enriching experience for each dog under her care.
Lauren has been caring for pets for many years now. It is very important to her to not just keep your pets safe, but provide a great experience. She tailors each pets care to their age, ability, and individual needs. Whether it's a walk, day trip, or extended stay, your pets will be in good hands.
Lauren is the best! I've known her for over 20 years. Her love of animals is apparent. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to have her watch, walk and cuddle my dog.

Dogs are my life! I used to be a Kindergarten teacher but made the change to being a full-time dog walker in Mammoth Lakes 5 years ago. I’ve cared for more dogs than I can count and have loved every minute of it!
