“Lauren is wonderful and we highly recommended her to care for your pet and home Our dog loved her and she was great in communicating and keeping us updated on how our girl was doing. We definitely will be booking with her again”


About: Growing up with dogs, hamsters, fish & turtles has given me a broad range of animal care experience. My proficiency extends to managing dogs that are accustomed to outdoor potty-trained dogs, house-trained canines & those using puppy potty pads. My experience encompasses both energetic puppies & senior dogs, nurturing a deep appreciation & patience for diverse canine temperaments. REMINDER, the prices I’ve set reflect my need to cover monthly bills & college tuition as I use this job as a source of income, especially since Rover takes a portion (11% goes to Rover) before I receive each paycheck. I aim to earn this by spending quality time with delightful puppies & dogs by providing pet-sitting services. Please note only first-time customers to Rover get a discount on their first booking service(s) by applying my promo code. Bookings made after the first one will not be eligible for discounts. Thank you for your understanding. As a full-time college student engaged in online classes, my schedule allows me the flexibility to be at home throughout the day. This allows me to dedicate ample time for play, walks, & affectionate interaction with your dog/dogs in my care. Additionally, I am the loving owner of a sociable small dog that is well-behaved & enjoys the company of other well-behaved canines. I have a secure fenced backyard where your dog can enjoy outdoor activities & potty breaks without any risk of escape. This allows your pet to play & explore in a safe environment. For added peace of mind, I have a dog crate available for use in unforeseen situations, such as preventing injury during accidental home breakages or providing a comfortable, secure space for bedtime during overnight boarding. When it comes to walks, I always prioritize your dog’s comfort & health. Walks are scheduled to avoid extreme temperatures—both hot & cold—to ensure your dog’s safety & enjoyment at all times. Your pet’s care, safety, happiness are always at the heart of what I do.

About: Dogs give us unconditional love and what could be better than that? I have been a dog owner since the age of 7 and have had 4 dogs all together throughout the years. I have dog sat for a lot of my mom’s friends and it gives me pure joy to be able to play with other types of dogs. I like to stay active so I can definetly walk or run with your dog. I work at another job during the day and it’s usually a lot of early mornings so if I were to do a drop in visit I could possibly do it for the morning and one in the afternoon. I hope to meet your wonderful pups and love them as my own. My schedule changes from mornings or evenings due to Air Force needs but I love making time for the pets I watch. I will happily walk and cuddle with them. My previous dog sits have been at the owners preference so I’m open for anything as long as it fits into my work schedule/time. I can watch them at your place or mine, whichever seems easiest

“Adam did great with both our dogs. He sent pictures, and was responsive when we checked in on how they were doing. He was very polite and treated our home with respect while staying overnight.”


“Candace did a great job taking care of our fur babies and our home! She sent lots of pics and updates to ensure us all was good.”


About: Taking care of a dog is one of the most rewarding and eye-opening experiences I’ve had. Last summer, I had the opportunity to look after my cousin’s Labrador Retriever, Max, for two weeks while they were on vacation. Although I was excited at first, I quickly realized that dog care involves more than just playing fetch and giving treats. The first challenge was adjusting to Max’s daily routine. He needed to be fed twice a day, walked at least three times, and had a habit of waking up early for his morning stroll. At first, I struggled to keep up, especially with the early mornings. But over time, I began to appreciate the routine. It taught me discipline and helped me become more organized with my time. One of the most important lessons I learned was the importance of communication and observation. Max couldn’t speak, of course, but his body language told me everything I needed to know. When he was anxious, he would pace and whine. When he was happy, he wagged his tail and jumped around. I learned how to respond to his needs by watching him closely, whether it was giving him more water, comforting him during thunderstorms, or simply playing with him when he was bored. There were also fun and heartwarming moments. Max loved the park, and I began to enjoy our walks as a time to unwind and bond. We developed a rhythm—he’d chase a ball, bring it back, then rest beside me while I read on a bench. He became more than a pet; he was a companion who brightened each day. Overall, taking care of Max taught me responsibility, empathy, and patience. It was a learning experience that went far beyond pet care—it helped me grow as a person. I now understand what it takes to care for another living being, and I carry those lessons with me everyday. I normally walk to the park in the morning around 8am. Long rest until noon in which I'll take dogs to fenced in areas and let them play. Afternoons I'm getting to my overnight stays where I can end the night. I do not have a vehicle so everything is though walking. I do have a fenced in area at home if needed but all walks should be within your area.

About: I have had pets ever since I was 5. I have a lot of experience with disabled and senior dogs.

I am very punctual, and will give tons of attention.

Lola loves her and we totally trust her to care for not only Lola but our home She is our go to person

It’s so hard to leave your best furry friends behind when you leave to go somewhere. Even more so when they are getting older in age. Lauren stepped in our shoes for us and our 2 cats and aging dog bonded so well and were bouncy happy to see us afterwards. We boarded one dog this time but not again. Lauren, thank you for helping us have a wonderful time away without constant fear or worry. Highly recommend for every over anxious pet parent.
