Pet care experience

Wig Wag Wuff

I’ve taken care of animals for over 20 years. I have a 20 year old cat that lives upstairs and a 5 year old Border Aussie that loves making new best friends. We’ve lived all over the US and have welcomed all types of fur animals into our home. The office dog at my former job turned into Bentley’s best friend and one of my regular clients.

Lauren and her pup Bentley were great hosts for Lincoln! This was our first stay with Lauren, and right from the initial meet and greet, she made us feel comfortable. Lauren made sure Lincoln settled in and sent us lots of photos and videos throughout. We knew Lincoln was well taken care of.

Lauren took great care of our girl, who had never been boarded before. She clearly loves dogs and her home is dog-centric. Our dog was well-cared for and we received pictures of her in what we call extreme relaxation mode on the furniture. I was so glad she got plenty of TLC instead of being boarded at a kennel. We had an intro meeting where Lauren explained her setup and asked questions about our dog. We will be rebooking next time we need dog care!

A typical day

A typical day pending on the dog’s energy can include a visit to the dog park across the street first thing in the morning and after work. Lunch breaks include a walk around the neighborhood. The remainder of the say, your dog can be found either keeping me company in my home office playing with toys or napping downstairs.

Lauren can host up to 1 pet per night
I always request a meet and greet with your dog and Bentley. I want to ensure both dogs will get along but also that you can see where your dog will stay while you’re gone. I want you to feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog is your child and should be treated with as much love. I will ask if its okay to take your dog to the local dog park and how they interact with other dogs otherwise, we will visit the tennis courts for free range run play. Other area of concerns are any foods I should avoid (treat wise) and if they are allowed on furniture. I respect your rules at home and don’t want them to develop habits.
