Pet care experience
I don't have a dog at the moment but I grew up with dogs and cats. Most of my friends and family have pets and I love to visit them and give them loads of attention. I have been doing dog boarding and walking for a few months now and I absolutely love it! It's been so lovely getting to spend time with and look after different dogs! I have had some lovely dogs so far and hopefully I'll have a lot more. I spend a lot of time with my sisters dog (you'll see him in the pictures!) I look after him in my house or hers when she goes away or sometimes I just take him for a sleepover. I take him out for walks on and off the lead. Around where she stays or further afield. I drop in to feed him, let him out or play with him if she is out for long periods of time. I take loads of pictures and videos and send her updates when she is on holiday and am happy to do that for you too if that is something you'd like. I love to be outdoors with but equally I am happy to take things a bit slower for older dogs. I'm happy to look after any age of dog or puppy and will make sure I ask for all information I need about them. Their routine, diet, likes and dislikes etc. I know it can be a daunting prospect to leave your pet with a stranger so I am happy to do what I can to help alleviate any worries you might have. If you'd like me to meet your pet before I begin a service to ensure we get on okay, I am happy to do this. I am flexible and reliable and I have a lot of love and care to give.
Reviews
Lauren is reliable, trustworthy and a lovely person. Excellent communication and lots of pics and videos. She gave us peace of mind when we were out at work knowing Woolly is in very good hands. He loved her and puppers are the best judge!
Lauren was absolutely brilliant with our border terrier, Doris, during an overnight stay. Before her stay, Lauren was in contact with us quickly to arrange a meet and greet so that Doris could get used to the environment and meet Lauren and her partner. Both were brilliant with Doris, so when it came to dropping her for the overnight stay we had no hesitation! Lauren kept us updated with pictures and updates throughout Doris's stay which was lovely - she had a brilliant time at Lauren's! I would not hesitate to book Doris in with Lauren again, and highly recommend her if youre looking for a dog sitter 😊
We can't thank Lauren enough for looking after Mac. She Immediately put us at ease as this was the first time we had left him and he can be nervous with strangers. He settled well and Lauren kept us updated with pics and videos which we appreciated. I would 100% use Lauren again.
Fantastic service from Lauren, Harley loved being there and didn’t want to leave! Would 100% recommend and use again. Really puts the dogs health, safety and comfort as her number 1 priorities.

I live in a flat and I don't have a designated garden. It's a very dog friendly area though and there are loads of grassy parts and pavements to walk along. I have a car and am happy to take dogs out for walks on or off the lead further afield if that is more suitable. I can take them somewhere to throw a ball around if that's what they enjoy or a walk around the block either at your home or mine.

Let me know about any special behaviours or needs that I can prepare for. I am happy to learn and adapt my care if possible to help make you and your pet feel more comfortable while they are in my care.
A typical day
I love taking pets out for big or small walks somewhere away from home or near home. I like spending time cuddling and playing with toys etc. I like to give them attention and have loads of fun at home or out and about.

Availability
I generally work 9-5 Monday to Friday but my base is at home and it's fairly flexible. I go out to meetings and visits throughout the day so I am able to drop in and out and also have time in the day for walks if your pet is staying with me or to go and take dogs for a walk/ drop in/ feed them. I am available early mornings, after work in the evenings and the weekends for all services pretty much all year round and as I said before during the day I have some availability too. I can do 1:1 or group walks (2/3 dogs) I have agreed for 1 or 2 pets for boarding at a time on my profile at the moment however, this will be based on information I gather about the dogs coming and what I have going on at that time too. I will always share with you if I plan on having more than one pet. If there is more than one pet from the same property or a pet of a family member or friend who is already familiar with the other pet I am open to having more than one. I am aware that often the people who you would ask to look after your pet are the ones attending the same events as you! If you would like to guarantee an overnight with only your pet there I can discuss this with you over message. This will require a higher nightly payment as I would be unable to take any other pets at that time. I have also said that I need 2-3 days of notice for pet care etc. There may be times where I can take last minute bookings that day or a day or 2 before so don't be afraid to message and ask if you find yourself needing last minute care!
