Pet care experience

Central Portland animal lover 💞

I am Lauren, but most people call me Lo. I am a lover of all animals, especially dogs! I have had dogs my entire life. I am experienced in dog sitting, training, and walking dogs of many different sizes and breeds. I currently have two high energy border collies of my own. They mean the world to me so I will make sure to take just as great care and give just as much love to your dog(s) as I would my own. Walks: I love exploring new trails and neighborhoods in Portland. I would love to take your dog(s) on hikes or neighborhood walks. I have worked with dogs who had anxiety, leash aggression, stranger danger, etc. I am experienced in understanding cues when a dog is anxious or is about to become aggressive. When I see these cues, I use distraction, avoidance techniques, and positive reinforcement until the dog is safe and comfortable. If you are currently training your dog on walks, make sure to let me know what specific behaviors you are working on & how you are working through them. I would love to know how I can support you and your dog to keep things consistent for them on walks! If you would like to get to know me better before booking me for services, let's set up a free meet and greet through the rover app. I would be happy to come to your home to meet you and answer and questions you may have!

Lo is THE best. Incredibly communicative, professional and friendly. Her experience with dog training is such a plus, especially with a new pup! I highly recommend booking Lo for your animals. You will be in great hands!

Lo is such a great dog walker! She takes the time to keep me updated and truly enjoys what she does. I feel very comfortable leaving my pup in her care :)

Lo was great! She communicated well, answered messages quickly, and our pup loved her! Couldn’t ask for a better experience through Rover!

Lauren was awesome and quick to respond to my (very) last minute booking request for a dog walk. Even though I didn’t give much direction upfront, Lauren took the initiative and tackled some of the steepest terrain in the neighborhood and clearly prioritized exercising my dog. I was so impressed. Thanks for the efficient and seamless experience Lauren!!

Lo did an amazing job! We highly recommend her! She kept us up to date with pictures and took great care of our 120 lbs baby while we were gone. We will book her again, and recommend you do too.

I would love to know if your dog is shy or nervous, and how they react to other animals and people on walks. I’d also like to know if they have tummy sensitivities with any types of treats. Finally, I’d like to know how I can ensure your pup is comfortable with me as their walker!
