I currently work full-time during the year. I am available all summer long to give your pet the extra attention he or she needs while you go on vacation or away for the day.I am flexible with my schedule. I enjoy long walks and playtime together! If you decide to board with me, I have a large fenced in backyard with shade to keep them cool. I never leave them alone they are always by my side or being watched in my care. I had a 12 year old Lab/mix senior dog that passed away in 2025 that always received a lot of attention from me and would like to do the same for your pet too. I would be available any day of the week or weekend's to take care of your pets needs. Just let me know!

My pup had a blast with Lauren! She got plenty of walks and outdoor playtime, and came home happy and tired. Lauren kept me updated throughout the day with cute pictures of playtime and naptime. I could tell Nala was in great hands! We’d definitely book with her again

She was very loving warm , and caring, and even made sure that she included ample playtime for my Jeter. , I felt completely at ease with the level of care, and attentiveness that she provided. I would definitely have her back here again , without reservation to take care of my little fur baby, she was absolutely a delight to work with.Thank you Lauren , for taking such good care of my Jeter . Looking forward to many more future visits .
