Ultra flexible, WFH sitter!

Pet care experience

I love animals and I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, big and small for years. I currently own two cats—Pasha and Ethan. I had a 100 lb reactive bulldog named Hugo who passed in January of 2024 🤍 My dog and I spent many hours training together so I’m super comfortable with dogs of all sizes, reactive or not. I’ve trained dogs on leash pulling and obedience and always keep alert on our walks. I’m super active and strong so I can walk for miles!

Lauren did a great job! I was pleased with how she took care of Beck and my home. Very professional, responsible and communication was top notch. Beck was a happy pup when I returned home! I would definitely use Lauren again!!

Lauren took excellent care of my senior special needs cat, ensuring he got his medication on time.

Lauren was a great cat sitter!! She was communicative, friendly, and flexible. She even managed to get my scaredy cat Nube to come out of her shell and receive some pets during her drop-ins. I trusted with her with my pet and think she did well, exactly what I needed for my cat Nube.

I’ve worked with dogs that are crate trained (as well as those that have a hard time getting into their crate) so I have no issue with working with your dog. My pup was crate trained as well as muzzle trained so I have a lot of experience with this. I still have his crate with me as well as a portable crate. I have my own car so I can be anywhere shortly! I also do photography and am happy to bring my professional camera along to snap some glamour shots of your dog 🤓

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should know about. I have experience working with reactive dogs and I’m also very comfortable administering medications.

A typical day

I’m happy to play with your pup however they want to play! My bulldog was a big wrestler and he has a pretty decent toy arsenal. I can’t bring myself to give his toys away so I’m happy I can do Rover :) I can provide toys but I’d appreciate if you let me know what your pup likes to do. I’m a patient walker so I’m happy to let your pup sniff everything! I love long walks. I’ve always avoided the dog park because my dog is reactive, but please let me know if you would prefer your dog visit a dog park.
