I have an absolute PASSION for pups

Pet care experience

Having lived with and cared for pets since day 1, I have an excellent understanding for animals, and especially for dogs! My relationship with dogs is symbiotic in that being around them is therapeutic for me, plus provides companionship for our fuzzy friends. I feel that I have a connection to dogs on a core level, and would love to walk, play, and provide TLC to each and every one. Your pet and I will enjoy numerous activities in multiple settings, from climbing mountain peaks on hikes to playing fetch at the beach. If your dog is more on the relaxed side, we can curl up and read a book, or take it easy around the park. Whatever activities your dog prefers, I can assure it will be more fun with a friend!

Lauren was so great with our senior pug, Tugboat! He has some special needs and she handled everything perfectly. She provided daily updates and we came home to a clean house and a happy pup.

Lauren stayed with our rescue dog Olive for her first time alone with a dog sitter. Poor Lauren dealt with one first rough night with Oli crying, but she took it like a champ and helped Oli relax and have a great rest of the week. Laurent left our house really clean and left a really sweet note. Thanks for taking good care of our girl, Lauren!

This was my first time using Rover and Lauren helped me feel confident Nova and the house was safe while we were gone. She was both kind and professional, and sent great photo updates of Nova. Nova’s a human shadow and loves to play and I could tell Lauren really gave him all of the love and attention. Thank you so much Lauren! 💙

First Lauren was late in arriving to the house, a fact that I had to discover on my own. Then she had guests over to the house, which again I had to figured out on my own and was never discussed with me first. I never said guests were allowed. Finally she requested to leave early, forcing me to change my plans. I will never use her again.
