Safety, trust & environment

I like to do a Meet & Greet with all my clients well before my care-taking in order to properly care for your furry friend. I cannot currently board/crate dogs in my home but am able to offer walking, feeding, and overnights.

Information Lawton B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or preferences your pet has. I have experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medication. I'm stronger than I look and can handle dogs up to at least 70 lbs with ease. For walking, I aim for an average of ~1 mile/walk based on the feedback your dog gives me (energy, interest, temperature). If your dog needs more distance (or prefers to run instead of walk) just let me know.

A typical day

I love to keep dogs stimulated by playing fetch or tug-of-war, going to watch the ducks at the park, or by switching up the walking route followed up by lots of chin scratches and kisses. I also did track in college so lets me know if your dog wants to run.

We highly recommend Lawton. She was great with our almost-human :) family member! We received daily updates and photos from her stay with our dog. Moreover, Lawton went beyond just keeping an eye on him and our home - she watered our vegetable garden and set up wire fencing to protect it from the neighborhood squirrels and bunnies without any of this had been specifically asked by us. Thank you, Lawton - you are hired again :)

Lawton did a fantastic job watching our dogs. They were happy when we returned and well taken care of. She took them on numerous walks/hikes, played fetch in the yard, and gave our elderly dog extra attention. She took great care of our home as well. She sent daily updates as well Would highly recommend her and plan to use her again

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
