Happy Trails: A Photo Journey Through Our Colorado Dog Walking Adventures!
I am so thrilled to have found Lauren to take care of my 2 doodles! Every day she walks them and sends cute photos and texts recapping the visit. I highly recommend Lauren if you want professional and loving care for your pups!!

The Sporty Dog is a wonderful service. All of the walkers are very professional and obviously care a lot about animals. They can accommodate a variety of dogs and cats too. Your animals will be getting the best care possible. The prices are super reasonable too!

Lauren is responsive, reliable, and does an overall fantastic job. I always return to a happy and well taken care of dog. Highly recommend the Sporty Dog!

You can trust Lauren with your furbabies. When we first moved to Austin two years ago, we had two senior dogs and she has always taken great care of them. When we added a third dog, a scaredy-cat dachshund, he immediately took to her. Lauren takes the pups for nice long walks, gives good advice when we are having issues with them, and has always been able to dog-sit when we need to be out of town.

I'm so grateful for The Sporty Dog! I've had trouble finding someone to handle my spunky pitbulll, Bear. He's a handful sometimes, but these daily walks have saved me! Lauren is extremely kind & helpful with working around my work schedule. She's always on time, and she's even helped me with last minuet requests when I needed it the most. Definitely referring her to my other doggie-parents! Thank you Lauren!!

Everyone at The Sporty Dog has been an absolute lifesaver for my two very energetic huskies and I! Without plenty of exercise and attention, my dogs can be a bit destructive at home. Since working with our friends at The Sporty Dog, I feel confident that I can leave them home alone while working long shifts. They have somehow even managed to make a friend out of my youngest dog who is highly anxious around strangers. They have been so flexible and accommodating to my wildly inconsistent schedule. Highly highly recommend!
