Every dog puts a smile on my face!
Pet care experience
I was taught at a young age to take exceptional care of my own dogs. I know each dog has a unique personality and needs a different type of care. I have looked after dogs small to large, elderly and young. I took care of a family of three dogs at one point, with each dog having a special need. They all required fresh, chopped meat in their dry food at each meal, which was no problem at all. One had some issues with having accidents inside, so I would put the puppy pads out and replace them every day. The other was old and just needed some attention. I am very calm around dogs and understand that some may need time to adjust to a stranger. I know how to approach dogs in a safe way in order to make them feel safe as well. My main goal is to make the dog feel as comfortable as possible to ease the mind of that dog and the owner. I currently own a cat, so I am able to care for any type of feline as well. I know cats have different needs and personalities than dogs, so I understand that different care is necessary for feline friends. Since I am in graduate school, some of my days are pretty flexible depending on my class schedule. This allows me to be flexible in the times I can come see some fluffy companions.
Reviews
Lauren was phenomenal. She was super flexible when my schedule became unpredictable, while my wife was deployed, and sent photo updates of her activities with our pups. She was very communicative and always quick to respond. She took receiving messages and bookings from both me and my wife with ease, although I'm sure it was a little confusing receiving messages and requests from two different people/accounts. She took our pup-pups to the park when we asked and we could tell that they had a great time. We would definitely recommend Lauren to others in need of a dog walker while they are away at work. She always went above and beyond what would be required for a "dog walk booking."
Lauren is the perfect dog walker. Her flexibility and consistency were amazing. She will be our first go-to when we need dog care.

Lauren did a great job! I came home to a very content and well-cared-for pup :)

Skills
Information Lauren F. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know their temperament and if they have any type of hesitation or nerves when meeting new people so I know how to best approach them for the first time.
A typical day
I will go just about anywhere outside that a dog wants to go! I am a big outdoors person and would love to take a dog to a park or to a nearby walking path. Of course, I am also just as interested to stay inside and play with toys.
