Pet care experience

The absolute unequivocal pup care.

Prior to now, I have owned two dog boutique hotels that I have personally built from the ground up. I am familiar with all kinds of doggies and their personalities. All doggies are special to me and will receive nothing but the best of care and affection. I am currently taking care of pups in your own home unless we discuss and or have made other arrangements.

Lauren was wonderful with our pups and gave us peace of mind while we spent the day golfing. We have a senior dog that has some unique care instructions and Lauren did a great job following our instructions. We will definitely contact Lauren again if we are back in the Carmel area!

Such peace of mind! I have separation anxiety away from.Gavin. We have a unique relationship because of the way I have chosen to raise him. He's like my three year old child in the way we communicate. He is so good and we have routines. I don't leave him except for appointments during the day. He's so content to be in our home with Lauren. She helps him.feel safe, has great compassion and follows our routines. He loves that she prefers being outdoors with him. All dogs respond to her gentle nature and sweet voice.

Lauren was wonderful! Crosby is an old dog and I was nervous leaving him, but after Lauren sent a picture of him in the back yard with her, I was no longer worried. She was great!!

You will not find a better person than Lauren to keep your pet happy when away from you. Not only does my dog love staying with her. He is relaxed and happy when I pick him up. I have seen the same for all the dogs that are fortunate enough to be with her as their home away from home. She is great at screening for friendly dogs who become friends. Your dog will never be scolded or have reason to be sad or scared.

We always know that our cavvie Lady will be given the best care and attention that a doggie parent could ask for when she's with Lauren. We never worry, we know Lady will be safe, we comfortably enjoy our couple time away from our "baby", and it's very obvious that Lady loves Lauren too. Sure Lady misses us (well, mostly her Daddy), but when we return it's clear that Lady was having a good time and lovingly spoiled with Lauren.

Schedule

I am also a commissioned artist so I would not be leaving to another job, your pup(s) would be my only concern. I might go run a couple errands, grocery store, etc... but I would enjoy just being home with your pups and painting, exercising them, playing with them or just doing whatever they are familiar in doing with you.

I just need to know about their social skills and quirks. Special needs? If there is medication or not. Do they have any fears? Where and how they sleep.
