Hi, I'm Lauren, I am 31 and an experienced dog-sitter/walker. I have been dog-sitting since 2016, and I have previously owned 1 dog myself (a Patterdale/Staffy cross rescue).
What I offer your dogs:
Daycare:
A meet and greet - happy to organise this in advance of your booking.
Stay with me anytime between 8am-6pm (outside these hours to be discussed).
2 x 30min walks minimum during the day and regular access to the back garden for play/toilet.
Mental stimulation - enrichment games and regular play.
Free roam of the downstairs of our house, and a secure medium-sized garden with new, 6ft fences.
Continuing any training plan you have with your dog.
A lot of cuddles and attention (if this is your dog's vibe!)
Overnight boarding:
As above but over a 24hr period, with another walk in the evening.
House rules:
- All dogs must be house trained.
- Dogs are not allowed upstairs in our house, so dogs must be comfortable sleeping either in their own bed or their own crate downstairs overnight.
- Owners must drop off their dog's food/bed/toys/enrichment activities with their dog to last the duration of the time they are staying with me.
- Unfixed females: I do not accept bookings when she is in heat.
- Unfixed males: if they have a tendancy to mark indoors, this is not the place for them.
Experience:
I traveled New Zealand for 12 months, dog and house-sitting around the country. I dog-sat for 11 dogs during this time and spent between 1 week to 3 months in each house at a time. I now petsit regularly for four clients, and can offer a safe space for more nervous dogs.
I am very flexible as work remotely most of the time, and I am happy to discuss your needs so get in touch if you have any questions - I am sure we can work something out.
I really look forward to working with you and your dog(s)!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Thanks Lauren for looking after our dog. We had piece of mind she was in safe hands and being cared for while we were away. We'd happily recommend your service.
Lauren was honestly amazing. She sent pictures and made me feel so reassured. Thank you SO much Lauren X
