“Jaydyn watched my pets (2 cats and a dog) while I was out of town for two weeks and I truly couldn’t have left them in more capable hands. Jaydyn is responsible, loving, and cares deeply about the well-being of the animals in her care. Between consistent check-ins with me, daily walks, playtime, and simply providing companionship, Jaydyn went above and beyond. I came home to happy, well cared for pets and would turn to her again and again!”

About: I love dogs and have been caring for them since I was 12. With me, your pet will have the “Cool Aunt” as their sitter (with a couple dad jokes slid in as well). We’ll be the Paw-fect match! I’m currently working full time, so on top of meeting all of your pet’s needs, we’ll be taking advantage of long walks in good weather or doing fun activities such playing hide in seek or watching a relatable film for movie night (Beethoven is my favorite!) My services of care will depend on your instructions and boundaries for your fur baby along with your home. I take pride in doing what I do best whilst making sure every expectation you have of me is met.

She lets us know how the dog walking visits went and adapts as needed (Corgi's get hot fast and sometimes just want some playtime instead). She even sent pics to show us our happy little walker. We plan to use Lauren on a weekly basis and as needed from now on!”

I’m used to feeding them, taking a walk and potty breaks and giving them a bath. Right now, I’m on summer break and I am not looking for a part time job or anything so I have lots of free time to look after your puppies!
