Pet care experience
Working from home has its perks — but I love to pet sit because it means I have an accountability animal to pull me away from my computer screen and out on a walk!
Reviews
Lauryn is the BEST! She watched my Swiss Mountain Dog puppy and parents' Golden Retriever at my house for a week while we were out of town. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and cared for, and followed all of our detailed instructions perfectly. She is really easy to communicate with and was great at providing updates and photos during her stay. We also had to cut our trip short and come home early, and she was super accommodating and flexible. And on top of all that she was a clean and respectful house guest. We are so happy we found Lauryn!
Lauryn has helped watch my dog (Chesapeake/Chocolate Lab) from puppyhood to senior citizen life. She is very friendly and caring. The dogs know immediately where her heart is and love her instantly. I'd trust Lauryn with all my animals.
Lauryn has both watched my pup while I'm out of town and swooped in and saved the day for mid-day dog walks during long workdays. He's a handful (110lbs) and loves to cause trouble by planting himself in the ground mid-walk and refusing to move, and she has never complained, and always handles him with patience and humor! She LOVES pups and it is obvious by the way she treats him and other dogs. Max has always come home tired and happy, and is always excited to see Lauryn, and I know he's in good hands whenever he's with her!
Lauryn has walked our pup two times and we couldn’t be happier! She’ll be our go-to person for sure! Such friendly, warm and timely communication and detailed updates with great photos. Our 4 year old pitbull cattle dog mix is a VERY high energy dog that can sometimes overwhelm people but from the first meet-and-greet to updates on their walks, we can see that Lauryn has all the patience, affection and skills to handle her with care. Thank you Lauryn!

Safety, trust & environment
If your pet is at my place, our apartment is in Oakland and a few blocks from Lake Merritt and lovely neighborhoods for walks and runs. If I’m meeting your pet in your home, I’m a clean guest!
Information Lauryn C. would like to know about your pet
The usual run down is helpful: What your dog is used to, how they might react to other animals or people, how many treats they can have, etc.
A typical day
Every day is different, every dog is different! It really just depends on how your pooch is feeling. Sometimes we run, sometimes we walk, sometimes we spend more time smelling the roses than logging real mileage. Fetch? Sure. Copious belly rubs? Absolutely.

Availability
I have a flexible schedule. I’m usually working 9-ish to 5-ish and climbing or running after work and on weekends. If I’m in town and you are not - then we’re a perfect match.
