teacher & pup enthusiast

Pet care experience

I have always had dogs in the house, and I live with a golden now (check her out in my profile picture)! I showed old english sheepdogs in a past life, & have dog sat all around austin! I'm a part-time teacher & UT graduate student (hook 'em!), and can be fairly flexible with my schedule when it comes to caring for your furry best friend. My own pal happens to be a service dog, so I do bring her along to my overnight visits! (don't worry, she has great household manners :) ). I play by your rules. I know it takes a lot of trust to invite a stranger into your home and to watch your best friend, so along with whatever care your furry pal needs, I will take care of any house needs for you that you may request.

Lauren is our go-to dog sitter. She's responsible and respectful of any instructions. And we can tell she really enjoys staying with our two dogs! It's so so nice to go on vacation and not have to worry about them. She's great at sending regular updates and pictures. We all love Lauren!!

Lauren is the absolute best! Imagine a world where you go on a trip without worrying about your home or dogs for the entire time. You come home and the house is cleaner than it's been in months and your dogs are perfectly exhausted. We've had a lot of bad experiences with rovers in the past - so happy to have found Lauren for our boys (and us!).

Lauren is awesome! Her and her pup stay at my place and take such great care of my dog. I travel for work a lot and trust Lauren in my house and my pup. She’s super flexible and always provides great, genuine updates. Cannot recommend Lauren enough!

A typical day

Whatever your furry friend needs, I'm on it. My car is pupiffied, so I'd love to take them to their favorite local gated park, or we can take a walk around the neighborhood! Have a couch potato? No problem, we can hang out all day. I also know that change can be overwhelming for some pups, so you are encouraged to walk me through your usual routine and we'll follow it!
