Pet care experience
El Cerrito couple ready to board!
Hello, I'm Lauren, and you'll also see my husband San in the photos. When our friend lived abroad for a year, we opened our home to Finn, an old-in-age but young-at-heart Maltese sweetie pie. We miss looking after a little friend, and we'd love to take care of your small dog!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Lauren and San were both easy for us to collaborate with to make sure Buddy was well cared for and were also wonderful with our pup. We would absolutely work with them again.

Lauren and San were super duper caring, communicative, patient and playful with our dog Lunita, who can be a handful at times! They made such a great home away from home for her and we are so appreciative!

Lauren and San took such good care of our boy! We were updated multiple times a day with photos of Fluffy’s adventures with them and they were so flexible with the drop off/pick up times. Thank you so much Lauren and San!!!

Lauren and San are so kind and welcoming! My dog instantly felt right at home with them. They are very responsive with all communication and gave updates while my dog was with them. They are one of the best dog sitters that I’ve booked!

Lauren and San were fantastic sitters — they were so friendly and excited to take care of Louie and sent great updates/photos throughout Louie's stay. Louie was very well cared for.

Lauren and San are awesome. They took incredible care of Lucy cuddling her and taking her out around town. We appreciated their clear communication and the cute photos we received!
