Availability

I am home most of the time and am able to take dogs out for potty breaks every 2 ours if needed or whenever they signal. I take dogs out for a short walk in the morning and then a longer walk once it cools off in the afternoon/evening. I continue the feeding schedule that the owner specifies and only feed dogs the food their owners bring with them.

I keep dogs and cats and they can sit or sleep wherever they are most comfortable. I have dogs beds but they are welcome to sleep on the couch if they want. If the dog is fearful, I give them their only little area until they warm up to the situation.

A typical day

I like to take dogs for walks. It gives them the exercise they needs and it's a little bit of quiet time for me as well. Dogs behave a lot better when they have an outlet for excess energy. Many misbehaving dogs, just need some exercise. I don't have a fence yard so we walk in a large cemetery near the house.

Pet care experience

I love animals of all kinds but I especially love dogs. I have been caring for dogs for 11 years. I've raised two dogs from puppies to senior citizens and they have since passed on. Three years ago I adopted a high energy boxer mix. I enjoy training dogs and doing activities like hikes, playing ball and swimming with them. I make sure my animals have adequate exercise, healthy food and lots of love.

Lauryn was amazing for the drop in visits. She played with the pups and was very attentive and great at keeping us updated. Our dogs love when she shows up!

Lauryn was AMAZING! She was great at communicating and keeping us updated on how our pups were doing. When we had our first interaction with her she was wonderful at being sweet but stern with our puppy. We felt our dogs were in good hands with Lauryn and it gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using her again in the future.
