Pet care experience

ISO: dogs to love on.

I am a 37 year old critical care nurse who is on a break from healthcare :). I have been a nurse since 2012 and recently experienced burnout working at bedside. I have always had dogs of my own since I can remember and I also have years of experience pet-sitting, volunteering at animal care and control, as well as caring for my own dogs (that are now geriatric). I have two small dogs under 10 lbs but I also have experience with large breed dogs from volunteering at the shelter as well as walking my partner's german shepherd, pitbull, and rotweiler regularly. As I am unemployed currently, I have a very flexible schedule. I currently live in a townhome that has a very small fenced in back yard area. I was dog boarding and walking for rover years ago (as you will see in my reviews- just to be clear- the pictures of the yard and home on my account is no longer where I am living). I am mostly looking to dogsit/ dogwalk in the customers home but can occasionally also board in my own home if it is a good fit with my own dogs and home. I encourage doing a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure we are a good fit. I have a maltese/ yorkie (Morkie) mix - 14 years old and a wire-haired terrier mix who is 9 years old. I treat my dogs like human babies, they sleep with me in the bed and lay with me on the couch and have full reign of the house:) I would love to meet you and your fur baby/babies! I look forward to giving your dog lots of love, long walks, playtime, and whatever else they may need! I am available and willing to give VERY early morning walks or later evening walks during the hot months of the summer so your dog can get some exercise before the pavement is baked! Your dog will be treated and loved as if they were my own spoiled fur baby:) Texting or calling is the best communication for me! I am available anytime of the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I am mostly looking to dogsit/ dog board in the client's home but if it is a good fit with my dogs and my own home, will consider dogboarding/ sitting in my own home. Willing to stay overnight in client's home and or stay there throughout the day to hang out with your pup (not just drop in briefly to feed/ walk/let out).

Our Shitzu has a great time with Lauren and her husband. They took great care of her and updated us while we were away. Would highly recommend them.

All my worries were gone when I met Lauren and her hubby. Genuinely kind, loving people that treated my little one like she was their own. Lauren was very easy to work with and flexible with schedule. I enjoyed meeting Lauren and her family.

Just let me know if your baby has any special needs such as: medication administration, special food instructions, any medical conditions, fears they may have, or sensitivities. Please also let me know your dog's regular routine so that I can make them as comfortable as possible!
