Loving, fun & reliable dog walker!
Pet care experience
*Accepting New Dogs* After taking a break from Rover to plan a wedding, I’m back and ready to take care of YOUR dog!! I am energetic, patient, fun person who is overly in love with dogs. I have taken care of numerous dogs including my own but she is currently at my parents place and is now my father’s favorite child. I have walked and dog sat small dogs such as Morkies all the way up to larger dogs such as Rottweilers and Golden Retrievers. I have dog sat for numerous families overnight, multiple nights in a row. I have also worked with service dogs at numerous rehabilitation facilities throughout the New England area! *Dog walking*- I am an energetic, active dog walker who enjoys walking or exploring hiking trails. Rest, pacing and water breaks are always important! During the walk, I make sure to send a picture and video to make sure you dog is in trusting hands!! *Hikes local* - safe and fun hikes can be provided to experienced doggy hikers or new ones! Hike are done at the Fells (which I live right next to). If your dog is new to hiking, please let me know and we will go nice and easy! Dogs will be leashed at all times during hikes. *Dog drop ins: I am also available for doggy drop ins to provide food, potty breaks or cuddles!! Please let me know exactly what your dog needs during this time and I will be able to provide it! *Boarding: although I have done boarding in the past and LOVED it, I currently don’t have the ability to board doggies!
Reviews
Our pup is a shy guy and Lauren went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. He came home to us with a big grin on his face, so we knew he had a great time. We would definitely book with Lauren again and would recommend her to any pet parent.
Lauren was fabulous with our young pup Sylvie! We were gone for five days and it seemed like she did great. We’ll definitely be back.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
If I am coming to your home to watch a dog, I will treat your home and, of course your dog, with utmost respect! Safety is always a part of my care plan and when watching tour dog will make sure it is safe and comfortable. Trust is very important as well and I am conscious that every dog is different and some will take time to get used to me!

Information Lauren N. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know how your dog interacts with other dogs when going to a park or if our on a walk. Please let me know any special requirements your dog has.
A typical day
Doggy access to: 1. all furniture, couches and carpets 2. as many treats as the owner allows 3. lots of hugs, snugs and kisses for those that want it 4. enjoyable walks to the numerous parks and hiking trails around our area 5. proper hydration and nutrition, of course! 6. Endless play time, hiking or running (have to get the zoomies out!) I am a big outdoors person and understand the importance of exploration and play for dogs! Walking is made for exercise, fun, sniffs, licks and lots of potty breaks! Patience is also key with dogs so I will make sure to provide your dog with all the time it needs to enjoy the outdoors!
