Availability

I have one 7-year old blue heeler named Nova who is great with other pets and one senior cat named Poppy who keeps to herself. I have a flexible schedule and a large fenced in backyard, so my dog is never going more than ~4 hours without going outside. I care for any pet I sit the same way I care for Nova.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep a large dog crate in my guest bedroom for any pup that needs to be crated if I’m away. Otherwise the dogs are out and about with me. I'm a night owl, so there is lots of cuddle time at night. I'm also a big gardener, so I have the dogs outside with me often. I have a ramp off the back porch that was for my senior dog before she passed away, so my space is very accommodating for dogs who struggle with stairs.

Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to do a meet and greet before I watch your pet! The most important thing I will need to know is how they do with other pets.

A typical day

I'm outside a lot so there is a lot of time to explore outside without being pulled away on a leash. Inside, we lounge! I usually put a blanket on the couch and don't mind for the pups to be on the couch that way for cuddles. If they are a playful dog, Nova LOVES having a buddy. I also can take very active dogs to my parents house down the road where they can swim in the pond and run on a farm.

Animal lover and flexible schedule

Pet care experience

I've had animals all my life and have been taking care of pets for friends and family for years now. I love having new animals around and caring for them the same way I would care for my dog, Nova. I've cared for senior dogs with mobility concerns, large dogs, small dogs, hyperactive puppies, and everything in between.

Poppy seemed very happy with her stay with Lauren. Lauren sent frequent pictures and updates. If your pet gets along well with an older dog and cat, I recommend boarding with Lauren.

Lauren is amazing!! My dog Ivy looked like she had a blast with Lauren and her family. She came home exhausted. Lauren sent lots of videos and pictures. She even met us halfway for drop off and pick up!
