Lauren was willing and capably took care of my senior dog who is diabetic and also has been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. She needs multiple medications several times daily including insulin injections every 12 hours. Though here temperament is very sweet, her care needs are quite high maintenance. It was clear to me that my dog felt comfortable with Lauren the first time she met her, which allowed me to really enjoy being away for a few days at Thanksgiving, knowing my dog would be well cared.

Lauren was a lifesaver, and I'm so grateful that she was able to add my dog to her schedule last minute! She is amazing with animals and just as amazing with their owners. She went above and beyond to make me feel at ease, and is a great communicator.

This is the second time Lauren has watched my dog Jake for me, and she is just wonderful with him! She is kind, patient and communicative. Jake lit right up when she showed up, so I’m very happy to have found someone like Lauren to watch him. Thanks!

Lauren took care of our Yorkie ,Skye, in our home while we went away on a long weekend. Skye had never been left with someone with whom she was unfamiliar and we had never had someone we didn’t know stay in our home while we were away. Lauren came over for a meet and greet and we immediately liked her and felt comfortable leaving her in our home with Skye. When she arrived on the weekend we were going away, Skye was a little apprehensive, but Lauren sat down on the floor with her and by the time we left, they were friends. Lauren sent pictures and updates as to what was going on. We were very happy with Lauren. Skye was happy when we got home and the house looked perfect. Lauren is a lovely person who is experienced and bright and obviously loves dogs. We definitely will use her again when we need someone again and HIGHLY her
