I have a fenced yard with one dog who LOVES to play and can keep your dog company! I have a large yard, tons of toys and the ability to let them out often. I also have the flexibility to give walks multiple times through out the day as well as be in their company all day. My favorite part of the day is to cuddle on the couch with my dog and watch a movie and I’d love to have yours join us!

It’s important to know behaviors of your dogs before time and how they are with other dogs as I have a dog that will be here during any boarding. Any special needs they have is helpful as well!

A typical day

I have a large yard that I sit outside with my dog and play lots of fetch. I also love to provide healthy treats and I love to bake, so I even bake healthy treats for my dogs! My favorite part of the day is to cuddle on the couch with my dog and watch a movie and I’d love to have yours join us!

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m incredibly passionate about dogs and have 10 years of experience as a dog owner. I would be so honored to be able to spend any amount of time with your pup! I’m patient and attentive, ensuring your furry friends receive the best care. My flexible schedule allows me to spend quality time with them, and they’re welcome to relax on the couches and beds, just like part of the family! Plus, I have a spacious yard where we can play and explore together. I even have a side photography hobby and would love to send you dog portraits during their visit 📸🐾. I can’t wait to meet your dog and provide them with the love and attention they deserve! 🫶✨🤎🐶

Lauren was so amazing watching our pup, Whiskey! He had so much fun at her house and she kept us fully up to date with frequent pictures and videos! We would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her for future stays!

We felt at ease having Rio stay with Lauren as we know he would get lots of play time and cuddles. The moment we showed up he was so excited as he remembered his first stay and ran right into the house. Will definitely be using Lauren in the future.

Lauren took care of our 13 year old dog Kona for two weeks - she sent frequent photos and updates and we could tell that Kona was happy and well taken care of. We will be repeat customers. Five stars!!
