I just LOVE dogs, always have!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, both my own and professionally. I have also fostered rescue dogs for over a year, I particularly like working with disabled rescue dogs. So I have plenty of experience with walking, feeding, and training dogs (even ones with special diets or medicine).

Lauren always does a great job taking care of my elderly blind Frenchie. She cares for her very much. Thanks Lauren!

Lauren took great care of Pikachu once again, including reaching out to the vet when she noticed some potential medical issues and making special trips to pick up medications for her. She was communicative and conscientious with updates, as well as being responsible for all of my dog’s special needs. I would trust her again and recommend her highly.

I really have to brag on Lauren. There’s no one outside of close family that I trust more with my two dogs! She’s so considerate and I know the dogs love her. Thanks for being the best Lauren!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very careful to keep walks relatively close in case the dog tires early, particularly for older dogs, and I like to keep their care consistent with what the owners usually do so the dog is always in their comfort zone.

Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know any interesting behaviour or routines they have, like if they prefer a leisurely stroll or a brisker pace. Also very important is any medical information, even if it doesn’t normally impact their daily life. I have worked a lot with dogs that are older or have medical needs that can impact their breathing, so I know it’s important to be aware of how far they normally go on walks and how often, so I can keep their routine consistent with your habits.

A typical day

I really like to have fun with your dog, take walks to get some energy out or find little games that they like, or even try some tricks if they seem to have a knack for something. I love a good park that they can explore and always has new smells. I normally stay pretty close to the house so we can easily get home if they get tired. I also like just sitting in the backyard if you have one, letting the dog explore their own environment and relax in the fresh air.
