Fur-babes look no further!
Pet care experience
Having grown up with dogs since birth, I can't remember a time in my life without a fur family. Have always had 2+ family dogs of a variety of breeds and sizes (high energy german short-hairs, german shepherds, black labs, Italian sheepdogs, standard/toy poodles, mutts, etc.) at all times up until recent years. I know that not every dog is the same, what they want and require will always vary based on temperament, breed, and environment. I've had dogs with separation anxiety, resource guarding and herding mentalities, none of which can be addressed in the same manner -- however, they can always be managed with customized care solutions. Currently, I have a 95 lb Great Pyrenees (mix) that I adopted from Austin Animal Center. He just so happens to be a "dog therapist." I've had hoards of people tell me their dogs never took to other dogs, playing, socializing, etc. due to trauma, etc. until they met Chief -- he's a total stud and king of chill that rubs off on everyone! Whether you're traveling for work, on vacation, or can't make it home for a while - my goal is to make sure your fur-baby is just as comfortable and happy with Chief and I as they are when they're at home with you.
Reviews
I’m so appreciative to Lauren for taking Juni in last minute during a holiday period! We met up prior to make sure she and Chief would get along. Lauren had plenty of thoughtful questions to make sure she had a feel for what Juni would be like during the stay. It was easy to sort out any details leading up to the stay and during it. Lauren took great care to make sure that she was on top of any supplements/meds Juni was on. She also sent daily updates on Juni and was in touch quickly when Juni got sick during the stay. Chief was also very accommodating of Juni’s puppy behavior and a great companion for Juni’s first stay away from home.
Lauren is fantastic to work with. She's reliable, on time and you can tell she generally cares about You pet. Highly recommended!
Lauren was great taking care of Georgia! Highly recommend!
Fantastic!

If you're staying with us, we have room for a crate and will crate your pup when I leave OR not, this is usually determined by the preference of you/your pup and can be established during our meet and greet. I will, however, say that whether they're being supervised or not, I never leave food or other resources out to eliminate any potential for hoarding or guarding behaviors.
Home
Information Lauren T. would like to know about your pet
Dominant or Submissive? Socialized? Any triggers (for anxiety, darting, etc.)? Crated? How/where do they like to sleep? Allergies? What is their food regimen? Are they OK off leash?
A typical day
Walks or rides (weather permitting) to Zilker, auditorium shores, hikes on the greenbelt, fetch in the courtyard - all the puppy hangs all the time! #doggoscomefirst

Availability
My job is remote (I know surprising), so I work from home M-F and am lucky enough to be able to make my own schedule, which just so happens to lean toward maximizing our time out in nature and socializing with other pups!
