I provide care from my clean, pet-friendly home where your dog will feel safe, seen, and loved. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so yours will get my full attention. I only accept one dog at a time or multiple dogs from the same home. I live with my almost 3-year-old daughter who has been taught to respect, be cautious and gently interact with animals after she has been approached by them and knows them. She is remarkably attuned to their body language and boundaries. We’re located in a safe, quiet community with grass covered dog-walking paths shaded by oak trees. Our large screened-in patio is a great place for dogs to relax, play, or just soak up the sights and sun. I honor your dog’s rules from home; whether they’re allowed on furniture or need scheduled crate time. I use washable covers and keep a tidy, sanitized space. When your dog stays with us, they’ll be treated like family. I look forward to giving them the same love and care you do when you’re with them!

Information Lauren K. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know your pet’s routine, temperament, medical needs, allergies, fears, and how they interact with other animals. This helps me provide safe and personalized care.
A typical day
I love engaging pets with stimulating activities like fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, and nature walks. We'll also enjoy cuddle time, enrichment games, and plenty of play tailored to their energy level and personality.

Pet care experience
Hello, I’m Lauren! I’ve been around dogs quite literally my whole life. My family raised Dobermans for show, and I’ve personally raised and trained two incredible male German Shepherds over the past 15 years. Since 2014, I’ve provided private dog boarding and training in both Australia and California. My background includes working with puppies, active/working breeds, senior dogs with health ailments and dogs with specific training needs. I bring calm confidence, consistency, and deep respect for every dog’s personality and comfort level. I’m a firm believer in meeting them where they’re already at and letting them pace the speed from there.
Reviews
I had a great experience with Lauren. She took wonderful care of my dogs, followed all instructions, and kept me updated with photos. The dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust Lauren again and highly recommend her.
Our dog knew something was going on when we got into the car. As we walked him to Lauren’s front door he was like a toddler saying no. He didn’t want to go inside and didn’t want to be left behind. But Lauren scooped him up and within two minutes you could see how comfortable he was with her. She had won him over that quickly. It made it so much easier for us to go on our first trip away from him knowing he was in a genuinely caring environment. She kept us updated and most importantly we came back to a happy and healthy puppy. Absolutely will use Lauren again!
Lauren was absolutely spectacular with our doggies! She was super communicative and gave great updates throughout the weekend we were away. It gave me so much peace of mind that my dogs were doing so well while we were away. Would 100% recommend Lauren and will be using her again in the future!
Our Nala had the best doggy day care visit. Lauren sent pictures too. Couldn’t be happier with how it went. Will book again.
