Dogs need a little vacation too!

Hi dog lovers! My name is Lauren, it's nice to meet you. A little bit about me is I was born in California, I am from Virginia, and I have also lived in Kaua'i. I graduated at BYU-I with a Bachelor’s degree in web design and development. I work from home, I have an online store where I sell jewelry. I’m definitely more of a dog person than a cat person since I feel I have a stronger connection with dogs. I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 8. I grew up having Australian cattle dogs in the family, they were the most loyal dogs ever. I've learned to take care of them as pups, and when they reached their senior years. I love dogs so much! I treat them like they’re my best friends. I don’t have any pets or kids at the moment. I've had about 20 years of experience so far being around dogs. I watch small dogs because my house is small. I actually prefer smaller dogs. Another thing is I can only host one dog per night. I can host two if they are related. I have watched many different dogs being on Rover, it's always interesting being able to meet all of the dogs' various personalities. ♥ Get $20 off your first booking!

As first time user of Rover and first time leaving my dog in the hands of other people I couldn’t be more pleased! Lauren was great!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog crate that I use when I leave the house. I will always have your dog on a leash outside. I have poop bags, treats, bones, etc. I can also give your dog a bath free of charge.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog physically and mentally. They can watch my birds at the window eating at my bird feeder. Check out all the new smells in my neighborhood, and explore a park near my house. Get a pup cup at Starbucks with me when I go!

0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Lauren can host up to 1 pet per night
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. My preference is for dogs that are crate trained, house trained, and don’t bite.
