I’ll run and hike with your dog!

Pet care experience

I work from home, love running and hiking with my dog, and have over ten years of care providing experience. We live in a very dog-friendly community with a fenced yard, dog park and many nearby trails. Your dog will love playing with ours - she’s 27 lbs, lab mix, canine good citizen trained and very social! For overnight visits and boarding, we are happy to host both crate and non-crate trained dogs. Our home is pet friendly and we allow our pup on our furniture, but are flexible and willing to accommodate whatever your pet parenting style may be. Happy to also provide basic skills and training, if desired. For walks and visits, I’d be happy to run with your dog or take them to the dog park if that’s preferred. We are excited to get to know your pup!

Lauren was amazing! She was able to take my golden puppy with 1 day notice and during Hurricane Flo! Despite the weather Tucker went on runs everyday and got to play with Lauren's dog Zoe and other neighborhood dogs! Lauren sent me lots of pictures everyday and I knew he was in great hands while I was across the country. I would absolutely recommend Lauren and will definitely use her again!

Lauren was fantastic! She took my puppy Archie on plenty of walks, and has a friendly dog of her own that quickly became a friend a playmate of Archie’s. I will definitely be working with Lauren in the future. I know my dog is in good hands with her.

I have a very inflexible and busy work schedule and Lauren often takes my dog Kona on little adventures. She is a natural with people and dogs. Incredibly trustworthy, punctual and a great communicator.

My coworker at FHI 360 and dear friend Lauren is enthusiastic, responsible, and kind. She loves her own pup, Zoe, with abandon, and providing her with a happy and full life is one of Lauren's greatest priorities. Lauren and her husband spend quality time with Zoe every day; in addition to long walks and snuggles, they love taking her on adventures to the Eno, Durham Bulls Bark in the Park, and to Locopops for pupsicles. When I watched Zoe this year, Lauren compiled detailed instructions to make sure Zoe received the highest quality of care and love while away from her parents, and I'm confident that Lauren would have the same high expectations for herself when caring for another person's pup. Lauren would take her role as caregiver seriously while making sure your pup has fun. And, having three years of medical school under her belt, you can trust her to handle any unexpected issues with a level head and excellent judgment. I don't think you could leave your pup in more trustworthy hands!
