Highlights
Pet care experience
Lauren's Doggie Boarding and Pet Si
I have had several puppies through the past 20 years and I also work with the local shelter, fostering dog/cat litters and volunteer walking dogs. I've potty trained them and taught them basic commands with marker training, such as sit, stay, off and come. I also have experience with reactive dogs, our own are adopted litter mates that are dog, people and leash reactive. My husband takes care of our dogs while I am watching yours. I am caring, responsible and guarantee I will take excellent care of your loved ones while you are away!

Lauren also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Ratings and reviews
Took great care of the dogs and our house. Very thoughtful, communicative and flexible! Highly recommend!
Lauren was great with our labrador retriever puppy Hazel! Hazel had hurt her leg a few days before we dropped her off with Lauren, she was very accommodating to our last minute requests of giving her medication and keeping an eye on her leg. Lauren also gave us daily updates on our puppy. Hazel had a great time with Lauren and we will definitely be booking with her again!
Lauren was an incredible rover. She boarded our young puppy on short notice when we had to leave town for a family emergency. She had great communication throughout and really took care of our pup. Would absolutely recommend and will use her services again in the future!
Really great at communicating and responsible for picking up and dropping off my dog at home! I would definitely recommend Lauren!
Lauren was great! This was my first time doing overnight dog-sitting with my puppy, and Lauren was clear and responsive with communication, and she met up with me ahead of time to meet my pup and answer any questions. Lauren sent updates during the visit, and was able to manage a home drop off situation when timing didn’t line up perfectly. We’re excited to use Lauren again for future dog-sitting!
My two dogs had an excellent stay with Lauren. She shared photos and gave me updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Lauren again for boarding my dogs.

Schedule
I am confident that if your dog is working on potty training, I can instill and reinforce that behavior. I love going on long walks or runs and would take your pet for fun at the park if they are comfortable with that setting. I work contract to contract and am now free during the entire day to watch your pets.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I like to go outside every few hours, sometimes a long walk in the afternoon. With puppies, I go outside every half hour to an hour and reinforce potty training with treats and excitement.
Pets
A typical day
I like to be at home with the dogs as well as walk through the neighborhood and also the trails. We can stay in or go out and explored depending on what you and your dog are comfortable with.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsLauren can host up to 4 pets per night
- Let me know if your dog chews, is afraid of other dogs or people, or needs help with potty training. Also, any of the words you use for commands would be helpful to know so I can use the same. If your dog is not allowed on the couch, please let me know! Sometimes I will let them sleep on the bed to bond further and if it is ok with the owner.
