Trustworthy, sensible and fun
Pet care experience
I’ve grown up with dogs and have a dog of my own - 5 year old black Labrador called Limmy. I’m currently studying for a dog training qualification, and have trained 4 dogs (including puppies and rescues). I am very experienced with dogs and am confident. I recently fostered a Doberman for just over a year, which involved training her and building her confidence. I want to ultimately move towards a career in dog training. I am happy to board/walk reactive dogs - however I’d like to meet ahead of the booking to ensure they are ok with my dog.
Reviews
Bella had a great stay with Lauren and was sent updates on how Bella doing when she went out for walks etc and we felt at ease at leaving Bella with Lauren. And Bella was ok to do her own thing just like she would at home and Lauren's dog Limmy is very friendly and easy going with other dogs.
Absolutely fantastic. Cooper loves seeing Lauren.
Lauren is fab we went to meet her with our girls prior to their sleepover, Lauren was very thorough which we found great as one of the dogs is on medication. They had a great time with Lauren and she kept us updated regularly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and we will be definitely using Lauren again ?
My 2 dogs are big, strong and a little reactive. There's not many people I would trust to look after them. Lauren coped with them admirably and I felt completely safe leaving them with her. She came twice before our holiday to get to know them, and while we were away she gave them a wonderful time - they had long walks with her dog, and lots of cuddles at home. She sent me daily updates and even cleaned the house. I have nothing but the highest of praise for her professionalism and loving care.

I have high fences in my garden and a 5 year old Labrador who is both calm and playful. I have a crate if that is needed and a dog-friendly van with a crate for those dogs who are nervous when travelling. I am due to complete a Level 3 Canine first aid course in November 2023 with Purple Dog.
Information Lauren T. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog ok with others dogs? as I have a friendly dog myself Whether you would prefer boarding in your own home to keep your dog in their own surroundings and routine Has your dog shown any agression or reactivity in the past? This won’t put me off from having them, but I’d like to be aware so I can safeguard your dog and other people.
A typical day
I believe the best way to tire out a dog is through stimulation! I’ve seen this with my own dogs, friends and relatives’ dogs and the dog I’ve recently fostered. I’ll stimulate your dog through sniff-walks (there’ll be no hurrying them along! They can sniff away!), play, toys and training. I like to put my dog’s meals in toys such as a Kong Wobbler, snuffle Matt, frozen kong and much more to keep him stimulated and to make his meals last longer! I’ll do the same for yours if you’d be happy for me to. I’m surrounded by fields where I can take your dog if they like to run around and chase a ball! Or if your dog is very chilled and just wants a bum scratch or tummy stroke, I will happily oblige! :-)
