Lifelong Dog Lover!

Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have always loved being around them. My family has had German and Australian Shepherds, Dobermanns, and Rottweilers, so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as high-energy dogs. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them. I currently volunteer at Paws and Claws Humane Society, where I work with dogs of all ages, personalities, and training levels. This has given me great experience reading dog behavior, handling different temperaments, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also helped my roommate last year with her Rover boarding clients and gained experience caring for multiple dogs at once. I loved getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. One of my favorite things to do is take dogs on long walks and get them outside for fresh air, exercise, and stimulation. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and getting attention, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care!

This was the second time Flash has stayed with Lauren. They had lots of fun adventures with hikes along the lake and around campus, and we appreciated the photo updates. Flash came home tired and happy. Lauren is an excellent dog sitter and I highly recommend her!

Flash had a fun-filled weekend with Lauren and Gabby. Lots of walks and playtime, and he was a tired pup when we picked him up. We appreciated the photos and videos. Flash is looking forward to his next visit!

Mellie told me herself that Lauren is one of her favorite sitters! She always has so much fun, goes on lots of walks, and gets so many cuddles!

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care and give dogs the time and attention they deserve. I’m able to accommodate walks, check ins, and longer visits, and I love spending time outside taking dogs on long walks or giving them plenty of playtime and attention.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely so pets can stay in their normal routine and feel as comfortable as possible. I make sure dogs are supervised, have water, and get plenty of exercise, attention, and bathroom breaks. I’m very attentive on walks and always keep dogs securely leashed unless the owner instructs otherwise. I’m also mindful of each dog’s personality, energy level, and any special needs they may have. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I will treat them with the same care and attention I would give my own pets.
