Dog Mom & Dad~we love dogs!!!!

Pet care experience

My husband and I are HUGE animal lovers! We currently reside in a second floor apartment in Somerville. We’ve had dogs our whole lives so we’re very familiar with walks, runs, feedings, and administering oral medications. We have two miniature poodles. We rescued our babies from Shanghai, China while we were living abroad. They are usually very friendly with other dogs, but can be intimidated by large dogs or dogs with a lot of energy. They can be a little feisty and bark at first, but eventually warm up. We prefer to have non-shedding and potty trained dogs in our home.

Lauren and her husband were awesome! They sent pictures and were very communicative the entire time. I would definitely recommend Lauren!

Lauren and her husband were so amazing and kind to take in my dog for a week while I was away. They sent me daily pictures and videos. They treated her as if she was their own, taking her for long walks, doing lots of playtime, and letting her get to know their own two dogs. I am so grateful and happy Cassie stayed with them. Will be rebooking in the future!

Lauren was an amazing sitter! It was the first time we left Georgia with someone who wasn't related to us. We were nervous and Lauren help ease all those concerns. Went above and beyond. Sent us many pictures, videos and updates. Can not recommend her enough! Thank you, Lauren!

Lauren and Tommy were so very nice with our Havanese, who had some anxiety her first day, and she accommodated so nicely. They sent lots of updates with pics and videos, giving us comfort while away. Would definitely book again!

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

When you drop off your fur baby for his/her visit, it would be super helpful to know a breakdown of your schedule, any requirements/rules, and any medications that would need to be administered. We want to keep your dog on as close a schedule as to what he/she is used to at home.

A typical day

My husband and I can do two to three walks per day. The dogs will always be on a leash with my husband or myself there to prevent any runners.
