Pet care experience

Would walk 500 miles to walk a dog

I have a rescue pup and cat of my own and would love to take care of your furry family as well. I have years of experience with both puppies, full grown doggos, and cats. I have pretty open availability during the weekday and most weekends and would love to help you out! I have taken care of dogs from chihuahua size to a retired racing greyhound and a leonberger. I consistently stayed overnight watching a border collie, and have watered plants during drop in visits for cats. I moved recently from Michigan and took a break from walking dogs while I sorted my life out. Kansas City is such a big dog town, I’m excited to be back in the dog walking game! Looking forward to meeting your fur kid!

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow whatever instructions you leave for taking care of your dog or cat in your home. I want to leave your house just as I found it, if not better. Any messes created by your dog or cat will be cleaned up, and for cats, I’ll also clean out the litter boxes.

Lauren was great and available short notice. It’s clear she has lots of experience with dogs and loves them! She even took Nell Bell out in the pouring rain and was very prompt. Thank you so much for hanging with my senior best friend and providing her good care.

This is our second time booking Lauren and she is great! She gives updates for each dog on each walk which is very helpful knowing if my dogs are having any issues. Not to mention it seems like the dogs love being around her.

Lauren was great with Olive and was great at asking questions to personalize her care. We will definitely use her again!

House Sitting • Apr 23, 2026

Lauren is AMAZING! What was supposed to be a very straightforward dog/house sitting job became a lot more complicated when one dog had a bite/ER visit the night before Lauren's arrival, which required much more in depth care. Lauren was so kind and chill about the whole thing. She took AMAZING care of our dogs and even washed the dishes and cleaned up the house before she left. And she was so great about providing updates and photos. Truly 10/10 will be using Lauren again!!

Mainly I would want to know any health risks and behavioral risks. If the dog needs medicine, when and how do I administer it? What sort of feeding and potty schedule is the dog on, what are their favorite toys or things to do? Basically - what do I need to know in order to make sure your dog is happy and well taken care of.
