Availability
Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort.

About Lauren J.

Safety, trust & environment
My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.

Information Lauren J. would like to know about your pet
To ensure the safety and well-being of all dogs in my care, I need to be fully informed about each dog's behavior and health history. Please disclose if your dog has any history of aggression. This is not an automatic denial, but essential for proper management and care. Additionally, I require proof of current vaccinations for all dogs, and an emergency contact number if the stay is longer than two days or if you will be traveling far out of town. This ensures I can reach someone who knows your dog well in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
A typical day
Dog park if owner allows, and fetch in the back yard and plenty of time for walks. I am also all in to take dogs to get a pup cup!

Pet care experience
As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home!
Reviews
Just wanted to say thank you so very much!!! Lauren and her family cared for our girl like she was part of their family! Last minute our arrangements fell through with our trip and we were unable to bring our doggie and Lauren was not only helpful with the situation,her communication and flexibility was the saving grace to find a pet sitter last minute literally . Lauren kept our family updated on our doggie daily with photos and text . We are so excited to have found a place we can feel comfortable with for our doggie. To Lauren and her family… thank you for everything you provided as well as caring for doggie and welcoming her and affording the flexibility with times and circumstances.


Took great care of my pups. Flexible and communicates well.
Lauren J. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.

Lauren was great! She sent pictures each visit and double checked on anything she was unsure of. My pup was well loved and even my kitty who she wasn’t even there for ❤️ Already planning to use her again soon 🥰
