Pet care experience

I have taken care of many different animals (Chihuahuas, English Mastiffs, cats) since I was 12. People have depended on me to take good care of their extended family. I am an artist who works from home, so I have lots of time to play with your pet! I am flexible with my time and will work around your schedule as best as I can.

Lauren was great with my dog! She made sure my dog got good exercise and wiped her muddy paws coming back in the house. Would absolutely trust her to take care of my dog again!

Lauren was wonderful with our senior cat! Our cat has some health issues and requires daily medication, but we had peace of mind because Lauren was communicative, sent lots of great photos, and spent plenty of time playing with and brushing her. She was also more than willing to water our plants. In the past, our cat always seemed stressed and anxious when we returned from trips, but she was relaxed and happy when we got home! Would absolutely recommend Lauren and have her watch our pets in the future.

11/10 stars for Lauren! Lauren took such wonderful care of my cat. She sent a ton of photos and I could tell my cat really loved her! Will absolutely be rebooking the next time I need a cat sitter. Lauren is the best!

Lauren was wonderful and my dogs loved her. She sent me lots of pics and you could tell she genuinely cares about their well being. She even brought my trash in for me and the house looked super clean when i got back, despite having a senior dog who has accidents. I would highly recommend her!

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet needs any medication, has any allergies, its behavior around other animals and people, and anything else you'd like me to know. My apartment doesn't allow dogs or cats but I am more than happy to take care of your animal inside or outside of your home.

A typical day

For Dogs: I love taking them for walks on their usual routes based on their needs or letting them out for a bathroom break during drop-ins. Playing with their favorite toys is fun and snuggles/pets always :). For Cats: I love to play/snuggle!
