About Lauren G.

Safety, trust & environment
Pets in my care enjoy playtime in my fenced-in backyard, including games like fetch several times a day. Inside, they relax in the living room on comfy beds and blankets. They always have fresh water and a variety of toys to keep them engaged and happy. I give plenty of one-on-one attention to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet
To give your dog the best care possible, I like to learn a few key things ahead of time. Every pup is unique, and knowing the following helps me create a safe, fun, and stress-free experience: • Daily Routine: Feeding times, bathroom habits, and any specific routines they’re used to. • Temperament & Behavior: Are they shy, high-energy, protective, or prone to separation anxiety? Do they get along with other dogs or prefer solo time? • Health & Medical Needs: Any allergies, medications, or medical conditions I should know about? • Triggers or Fears: Loud noises, bikes, skateboards, certain people or animals—anything that might make them anxious or reactive. • Training Cues & Rules: What commands do they know? Are they allowed on furniture? Any behaviors you’re currently working on? • Emergency Contact Info: Your preferred vet, emergency contact, and how best to reach you during care. The more I know, the better I can care for your dog like they’re part of my own pack!
A typical day
Dogs get plenty of supervised backyard playtime, including fetch and toy play to burn energy and have fun. I always adjust activities to match each pet’s personality and comfort level.

Reviews
Lauren took great care of my dog. He has separation anxiety but she managed to overcome that in the 3 nights he was there. They even celebrated Koa’s birthday with extra treats, games and snuggles. I’ll be back!!
Rosie had a great stay with Lauren and Ben. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby.
We loved using Lauren for our dog’s weekend stay! She provided daily updates and accommodated our dogs needs really well. Will definitely use her services again!
I booked with Lauren but never met her—only her husband, who was the only person I interacted with throughout the stay. The meet and greet was held outside and seemed fine. At drop-off, I was briefly allowed into the kitchen, which was cluttered with boxes, and there were many other dogs present. I was not allowed to see the rest of the home. Although I felt uncomfortable, I had no alternative at that point and left my dog. I received a few photos and one video during the stay. They were able to accommodate a 1 hour early drop off and 2 hour early pick up, which I appreciate. At pick-up, I was again not allowed inside. My dog was dirty and had a noticeable odor. When I took her on a short walk immediately afterward, she relieved herself right away, which made me concerned she hadn’t been let out recently. I had to bathe her before going home. My dog seems okay overall, but this experience left me uneasy, and I will not book again. I’m also confused why Lauren’s profile does not mention her husband, as he appeared to be the primary caregiver and I never met Lauren herself.
