I work full time until six, but then I take my dogs on a walk or to the dog park everyday after. So I walk daily. My boys are the most friendly creatures in the world and love other people and dogs.

About Lauren W.

Cat skills

Oral medication administration

Safety, trust & environment

WHAT TO EXPECT: -punctuality -dogs always leashed unless in fenced in area -Use of Go Pro to ensure safety, provide video if an emergency occurs, or you just want cute updates -have water bottle and treats for walk -will follow preferred commands/habits you like for your pet -can offer play, food refresh, or litter change for drop in visits -car has seat belt and barrier for safety if travel is required/requested I always keep my cats indoors, make sure they are away safely. My dogs are never off leash or in unsupervised situations so that they can't get into trouble. Also they are SPOILED and have all the foods and treats and toys. WEATHER ADVISORY: I will not walk any dogs when temperature is over 85°(evening may be negotiable) or 30°below as these temperatures present severe health risks to all dog breeds with any length of time.

Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs/restrictions. I can avoid certain areas/interactions if your dog is reactive and does not enjoy other people/dogs. If they are reactive I request they have muzzle training for everyone's safety. I'm also open to if you have specific training you want your dogs to follow (sitting before meal, walking on certain side, etc).

A typical day

I'm open to walks, games, cuddles and fenced dog parks with owners approval! I'd offer to run, but my knees cannot handle that, unfortunately.

Cat care experience

I've been around cats my whole life. I pet sat as a child and I currently have 3 cats (12, 7, and 3). I'm used to grumpy cats, skittish, and the velcro cats and the fact they rule the household.

I have a 10 year old dog, a 10 year old rabbit, and a 14 year old cat. Lauren has cared for them while I was out of town on multiple occasions over the last two years and has done an excellent job every time. She made sure my cat’s food was measured out twice per day, that my dog was walked twice per day, and that my rabbit got his arthritis medication twice per day. All my pets adore her!

I have known Lauren for over 6 years. There is no one else in my life that I trust more with my animals than Lauren. I have watched her interact with my own pets and the animals of others and have consistently seen animals naturally gravitate towards her. She is responsible, hard working, and demonstrates great attention to detail. Lauren is my favorite walking buddy and I’m sure she’ll be your dog’s favorite too!
