About: Hello, I've had the joy of having dogs and cats my entire life. I've taken care of dogs of all size, from Yorkies to Rottweilers. Currently my fur babies are Koda, an Australian Kelpie mix, Maple, a GSD puppy, and Pebbles, queen of the house calico. I'm looking forward to caring for your furr babies and keeping them happy and healthy by providing drop-in visits or going for fun walks. My days and weeks are usually flexible, even on short notice. I am also normally available during holidays. Drop in visits can be up to 30 minutes, and walks can be 20, 30 or 60. It takes special humans to welcome pets into their homes, and they become members of your family. And as such, you can count on me to treat your babies as I would my own.

Heather cared for our beloved pets in our home over a long weekend, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, and never hesitated to ask questions when it came to properly administering medications to our two dogs. She treated our pack like they were her own and did an absolutely wonderful job caring for them. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. I’m so grateful we found her - she’s truly amazing!! ❤️

About: Having pets for all these years I understand how important these family members are. It always seemed that their comfort and happiness was as important aa anybody else’s in the family. Pets have always been a big part of our family Having retired from industry makes me able and willing to spend time showing attention in a safe and willing schedule. I understand the value a pet brings to a family Knowing what is safe for dogs and cats is something I have studied. I also believe it is very important to keep a pet leashed where danger is evident

About: I have had dogs my entire life. My dogs have been and always will be members of the family. We currently do not have a dog as our 14 year old lab passed away from a stroke last year. We do allow dogs on furniture and we do take excursions to the park in good weather. This can be your dogs home away from home. I am retired and am home unless I am traveling. We have a fenced in property with woods and a creek that your dog can enjoy on walks unless you prefer they just stay in the main yard. When your dog is here so am I to ensure your dog is well cared for. I have a single family home with a fenced yard. Pets are allowed on furniture and bed. I enjoy excursions to the park with my dog for walks and relaxing. Children are grown and gone so it's just a couple who enjoy dogs. We have a senior Labrador who is very friendly, has all vaccinations and has free roam of the house. I am also available to sit for your dog in your home if you prefer. I follow any instructions for your dog you want me to, including administering medications.

Lauren is an amazing pet sitter that goes above and beyond. She was kind, caring, and patient with my elderly pup. When I came home I could tell that my pup was relaxed and comfortable with Lauren. She went above and beyond when she saw a few neighbors having an issue with their dogs, she quickly stepped in to help out! I highly recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs!!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, kitties, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me for years to ensure their fur babies are well taken care of while they are away, whether it’s a weekend or a week. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I’m a reliable and attentive animal lover who understands that every pet has its own personality and needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort, making sure pets feel secure while you’re away. With a strong sense of responsibility and genuine care for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing not just basic care, but companionship and trust you can count on. I work a full time job 3 days a week for 12.5 hour shifts. It is understandable if that deters animals owners away from choosing me. On the days off, the fur babies will get all the love I can give them! When I’m on a sitting job, I always stay at the clients home for the duration of the sitting job so their fur babies are in the comfort of their own home with no environment changes.

About: I’ve always been a dog person. I’m the type who will immediately say hi to a dog on the street and completely forget to greet their human. I’ve cared for my own dogs through all stages of life, including supporting two through severe illness and disability, as well as taking in a senior dog with special needs who required extra help with daily care. That experience taught me a lot about patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to meet each dog where they are. These days, the thing I miss most about having a dog at home is the simple joy of throwing on a leash and exploring the neighborhood together. I’d love to be that person for your dog, whether that means a fun walk, extra attention, or just keeping them company. I have a very open and flexible schedule right now, which means I’m able to accommodate a variety of care needs throughout the day. Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, evenings, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with your schedule. I provide care in your home through drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone, especially when they have specific routines or needs. I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions and daily care, and I’m happy to follow even the most detailed directions exactly as given. I have experience administering medications and am comfortable finding whatever method works best for your pet (including the classic “hide it in a treat” approach). Safety is always a top priority. Dogs are always kept on leash during walks, and I’m extremely mindful with doors, gates, and any potential escape routes. I have an escape artist of my own at home, so I understand how important that extra level of awareness is. I aim to create a calm, comfortable environment while still making sure your pet gets plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. Whether they’re energetic or more laid-back, I’m happy to match their pace. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away (and yes, I tend to send a lot!).

About: I was born into a family of pet lovers. We have had a wide array of pets in our home-cats, dogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish and more. I have become my church and friends' go-to pet sitter for years. I not only provide the love and care that pets need, I am also a licensed pet massage therapist, so your pet will get extra love! I am self-employed, so my schedule varies and is very open for providing top notch pet care. My day is better when I am able to provide love and care for animals! I provide pet care in your home and am able to work with your pet(s) specific needs and schedules. I want them to feel as unaffected by your absence as possible!
