Pet care experience

My love for all dogs is endless

I provide reliable and attentive care for pets, treating each one with the same love and respect I give my own. I have owned dogs my whole life, growing up with boxers, and later adopting two retired racing greyhounds after moving out on my own. Since then, I’ve raised three puppies, each with unique personalities and training needs. I use a balanced training method, understanding that no single approach works for every dog. I meet dogs where they are, offering patience, consistency, and compassion to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. I also participate in dog sports and showing dogs, which has deepened my knowledge and appreciation for canine care and behavior. In addition, I’m well-versed in dog first aid and highly observant when it comes to monitoring health, safety, and overall well-being. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your companion is in capable and caring hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small, fully fenced 6-foot backyard and a spacious home to comfortably host your pet. I live in a quiet neighborhood with access to a nearby 2-acre property where I can take dogs to stretch their legs and enjoy some extra exercise. I share my home with five well-behaved dogs who are accustomed to welcoming new dogs into the household. My home is thoughtfully set up with multiple baby gates and crates, allowing me to manage the environment safely if needed. While staying with me, your dog will have free access in and out of the backyard, ensuring plenty of fresh air, playtime, and comfort throughout their visit.

Lauren walked our dogs daily for a really long time, and stayed with our dogs for many vacations we took. I cannot recommend her enough. She is extremely dependable but most of all, truly cared about our pups as if they were her own.

Before booking, I like to gather important information about your pet so I can provide the best care possible. This includes how they walk on leash, their socialization needs with other animals, the training methods you currently use, any dietary restrictions, and any medications they may require. Knowing these details ahead of time allows me to keep your dog’s routine consistent and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well-cared for during their stay.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
