Dogs are not pets, they are family!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner and dog lover since I was 5 years old. In the busy hustle and bustle of today's high-paced society, I know the stress a dog owner can feel from the guilt of a busy schedule. I am passionate about giving dog moms and dads a little peace of mind knowing that they have someone to check in on their furry children, take them on walks, or stay with them overnight when needed. I have 15+ years experience as a dog owner, walker, sitter, and trainer. I have owned and worked with dogs ranging in size from tea cup to large breed. I've been the go to sitter/walker/check-in for all of my friends and family for years. I am a lover of all animals, I volunteer with local animal shelters, and spend countless hours chasing squirrels with my dog at the local park (disclaimer: no squirrels were harmed in the writing of this bio). My schedule is flexible and allows for throughout-the-day care for furry children of all shapes and sizes. I am available to check-in and spend 30 minutes or more with your furry friend providing services such as a belly rub, walk, brush-down, game of catch, administering oral medication, bathroom break, etc. I am open to providing other services, on a case-by-case basis. I am also available for overnight stays at your home with your furry children. For overnights, I will provide a walk in the evening and in the morning, will give your woofie a brush-down, provide meals per their dietary schedule and food type, and will tuck them in with a bedtime story. I am open to snuggling and sharing a bed with your woofie if that is their normal routine (I know my own furry child loves to snuggle at night). If there are any particular parts of your pet's routine you would like followed or any additional services you would like to request, please let me know. I am passionate about the care and happiness of pets. To me, pets are family; they have their own unique personalities and love unconditionally. I am attentive, caring, experienced, and professional. Let's chat about how I can make your furry friend's day awesome!

Lauren took amazing care of our pups (Great Dane and Labrador) in our home, while we were away. She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout. Our house was immaculate when we arrived home which we always appreciate. We would definitely recommend Lauren and we will book her again for future trips :)

Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet

When I meet a new furry friend, I like to find out: 1. What a normal day is like for them. 2. If they have any special dietary needs. 3. What is their favorite toy/ activity/ place? 4. What calms them down and makes them happy? 5. What, if anything, should they avoid (i.e., loud noises, certain places, etc.)? 6. Do they have any allergies/ injuries/ or health concerns that I should be aware of? 7. What are their little quirks that make them special?

A typical day

My furry friends and I love to go on walks in the park, visit the beach, play fetch, play brain games, visit other furry friends (when possible), and watch the sunset after a long fun day.
