About Lauryn B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Any pup guests that visit will have full run of our home, and time and space to assimilate on their own terms. My pup also recognizes and respects any boundaries another dog sets too. Guest pups tend to see me as "mother hen" and I frequently have a gaggle of animals following me all around my house! I make a conscious effort with supervision, attention, and reassurance to ensure any guest pup knows he/she can trust me and feels safe in our home. As for in a pet's own home, the more routine and personality quirks I'm aware of the better! I am a calm and confident pet person in both a solo situation or if we encounter another pet on our walk, and I can respect the pet's own personality and/or need for more or less space and energy.

Information Lauryn B. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know if your pup needs any special accommodations for feeding, sleep, times left alone, etc. Also, any pertinent medical information such as if I'll need to dose oral or topical medications. Please bring food, collar/harness, leash, and any toys, blankets, or other comfort item(s) you think would help him/her pup be more comfortable!
A typical day
First thing of the day is potty then breakfast. Then the great outdoors if weather permits, if not they get free roam of the house! My neighborhood always has a plethora of smells and sounds and leashed walks are a frequent occurrence. Lazy naps on the living room couch or roughhousing and tug-of-war with a toy in the basement den are on the daily agenda too. Then dinners, maybe another evening walk and/or more doggie playtime. Plus, of course, every dog that requests affection and attention (and even if they don't!) gets plenty!

Pet care experience
I have been, always will be a dog lover! I've owned several breeds over the years in all sizes and temperaments...from an oversized cuddly 90-lb American Bulldog to a boss-lady 15-lb dachshund. Right now, we have our 2nd lady dachshund who has yet to meet a stranger in dog or human form, one "big baby" Doberman, and one indoor/outdoor cat who will cuddle up right next to the dogs! I have 2 kids who have been around our dogs and dog parks their entire lives and we have "trained" them how to behave around dogs. Our last 3 pups we have each gotten at 8-10 weeks old so I am knowledgeable about the time, effort, and training puppies need from the beginning. I have also cared for my former boss' elderly dog several times at our home for weeks at a time who has round-the-clock medication and potty needs...she no longer boards him at a kennel! We have kept family and friends' pups at our home when they're on trips or having work done on homes, and have made visits to their home during extended working days. *Due to the start time for my full-time job and getting my children to school, I cannot accommodate early morning requests Mon-Fri. **I am not currently offering boarding or doggy daycare since we have recently moved and do not have our full fencing in place yet. Hopefully I will be able to activate those services again soon! While not a requirement, if at all possible I do prefer every new booking to have a brief meet & greet so your pup(s) or kitty can get acquainted with me! I've found it also helps put the owners at ease to get to meet me beforehand and get to communicate all the ins and outs of the environment and routine.
Reviews
Lauryn was a great communicator, was on time and send pictures of the visits. Would recommend!
Great lady & care giver.
We come home to a happy & well cared for Chloe. Good job Lauryn.
Lauryn did an amazing job taking care of our pets while we were away. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her. Thank you Lauryn!!
