I do not offer care in my home at this time, but in your home I will follow all guidelines and rules that are laid out. I will share many photos with you while you are away, and respond quickly to any questions that may come up.

Information Lauren F. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences nor any age preferences. I enjoy the company of all animals. I would like to know about their usual habits and what their favorite toy is. I'd need to know how active they are, when they eat, how they communicate, etc. All those are things we can discuss upon the "Meet and Greet".

A typical day

I love to walk and hike with all dogs. Dog parks are great, as long as your dog is comfortable there. Otherwise, playing inside or in the yard with toys is the safest alternative for both cats and dogs.

Pet care experience

A little bit about me: *I work full time, 730am to 4pm Monday through Friday in Russellville. I have lived my entire life surrounded by different types of dogs; anywhere from a Doberman to a Labradoodle. I have yet to meet a dog who did not enjoy my company, and I always enjoy theirs. I was a member of the Doberman Rescue League in New Hampshire when I lived in Massachusetts. I am offering my services to help families who do not want to leave their dogs and cats in an unfamiliar shelter while they are away for leisure or obligations. I have seen how scared they can be when away from their family, so I will take care of them as if they were my own family - with love and affection according to their own preference and personality. I look forward to meeting your dog and would love for them to choose me as their friend and care taker. I am currently only offering home visits or travel stays in your home, but I would also love to take your pups on a walk, to the park, on a hike, or wherever they like to go. I am completely comfortable with oral medication or eye/ear drops. I hope to hear from you soon, and I am excited to meet your family!

Lauren did wonderful with our dogs and kept us updated with lots of pictures. She cuddled the dogs on the bed like I would and I know they loved that.

Lauren was a huge help to us, while we were out of town. She stayed in our home and cared for our two dogs. She sent us pictures throughout her stay, which helped ease our minds. We highly recommend her!

Lauren sent lots of pictures and was super responsive throughout the whole weekend. I haven’t had to leave my cat completely alone in a few years (I’ve usually lived with roommates or family) so Lauren definitely eased my anxiety. Once I got home, I could tell that Pepper was well taken care of. I already have Lauren booked again for a longer trip I have coming up :)

Lauren F. was great in watching over our pets while we were away. I would recommend Lauren's services anytime. I hope Lauren remains available in the future.
