Long walks and play time
Pet care experience
The first dog we adopted was a cattle dog, one bred to run about 100 miles a day--talk about a workout! She's pushing on 11 years now, but when she was young we spent close to 3-4 hours a day wearing her out. Suffice to say, I'm accustomed to high maintenance dogs, so long walks, hikes, and play time are right up my alley. I spent my teenage years taking care of neighbors' pets, which came in all species, sizes, and temperaments. My own dog is a rescue and she isn't terribly friendly, so I have experience handling 'grumpy' animals. But despite sometimes difficult walks getting there, seeing how happy my dog is to play ball in the creek, where she jumps with total abandon into the water... Nothing beats the child-like joy of a dog.
Reviews
Lauren took great care of our grand dog as well as our house. Zeus was well and happy and our house was just as we left it. Thank You!!
Lauren did a fabulous job with our two dogs! She walked them and sent pictures daily. We were always assured that they were well taken care of and happy. Would definitely recommend.
I highly recommend Lauren P as a dog sitter. Lauren cared for our two dogs everyday while we were at work, and also when we were on vacation or on business travel. Both Anna and Snoop were so excited to see Lauren each and every day because of her loving and caring attitude towards them. She would walk them, play with them, and if necessary feed them if we were running late from work. Lauren P is a very responsible and caring person who will care for your pet as if they are her own.

Information Lauren P. would like to know about your pet
I need to know the temperament of your dog and how they react to both people and animals. I also need to know of any health concerns or issues with your dog, so that I can be on alert.
A typical day
With permission, I'd love to take your dog to nearby public parks or hiking trails. I'm happy to play wherever they're happiest, or to just sit under a tree and give them love and attention.
