Attentive, personable & reliable 🐾
Pet care experience
Located in Kailua Town & have base access as well! I always had dogs growing up and I understand how important it is to love and care for our furry family members! I love all breeds with a definite soft spot for bigger dogs after growing up with Labs, a Husky, and a Pittie mix. I also have experience with smaller breeds such as Chihuahua, Shih Tzu, and Pomeranian. I adopted my dog, Bo, from Paws of Hawaii in 2020 and I don't know what I'd do without him ❤️ I know it can be difficult to spend time away from your animals (whether it's for several hours or a few weeks!) so I will always treat your babies with as much love and care as I treat my own. I'm willing to do walks or drop in visits when it's most convenient for you. I have base access if that is something needed to come take care of your pet(s)! 😊 My availability is fairly open so just contact me if you're interested.
Reviews
Asked for drop in visits and Lauren did good. She actually suggested a meet and greet a day before I left for vacation and it went very well. I felt like I can trust her. Very good communication and kept the visits at the same time so it made a routine for the dogs and I think it helped. Overall it was a good experience. Thank you Lauren for taking care of my babies.
Lauren was awesome! Our dog, Jackson, loved her and she was so great with him! Will for sure be booking her for walks again in the future!!
I’m not going to lie... I have never used this app before, and thought it was very weird to have someone else in your home. But Lauren reassured us of everything we had concern for... she even went that extra mile and did a couple of things around the house that I didn’t expect her to do! She was absolutely amazing and loved on our dog so well! She was patient with our big hyper golden retriever. She kept us updated with every visit, and our dog seemed so happy in her pictures and when we got home! 10/10 recommend Lauren!! Very trustworthy, caring, and reassuring. Thank you Lauren for being so amazing to our Oakley, we will definitely be using you in the future!
Lauren is absolutely amazing from start to finish. As soon as she arrived she handled my dogs very well. Especially my bigger dog who can get excited and jump (who loves Lauren already). I will definitely be booking her again for my wiggle butts. Thank you so much Lauren! Possibly a weekly thing. ☺️

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I cannot board pets in my own home, but I have experience with walking & sitting for pet parents who are not home. I'm more than happy to un-crate/re-crate your dog (if you use one), replenish food & water, give approved treats, etc.
Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any behaviors I should be aware of. For walks, it is helpful to know if your dog is reactive towards other animals, human, bicycles, etc. Please include anything I may need to do to keep your home dog-proof as well (ex: making sure doors to certain rooms are shut, securing garbage cans or anything else your pet may get into)
A typical day
I love to provide dogs with physical and mental enrichment. A typical day would usually include a nice walk around the neighborhood with plenty of sniffing and perhaps some enrichment at home as well! For at home enrichment, I like to use Kongs, lick mats and even hiding treats in paper towel rolls or rolled-up old towels.
