About: I have had many different types of animals from cats, dogs, birds, and horses throughout my lifetime. I first worked at a farm when I was younger. Which had dairy cows. I have worked at Tri-Circle Ranch at Walt Disney World 7 years in equine care. I have nursed kittens by bottle feeding till I could rehome them. My experience includes working at the Orlando Cat Cafe for about 3 months. And then that very cat cafe I acquired my cat Goldie, who is very pampered but doesn’t like lap sitting. I owned three dogs during my lifetime, all ranging in different sizes and temperaments. When I visit my family every year they have dogs and suggested that I try pet care because I enjoy animals so much. I can do early morning feedings and walks. I’m open for suggestions that will make going on vacation a breeze for my clients, let’s talk. I can care for your precious family member in the most stress free environment, that would be in your home. We can talk about arrangements suitable for you.

“Aubrey was great and I came home after my trip to a very happy cat! She had great communication with me and I loved viewing the pictures of my cat from each visit. I would highly recommend Aubrey.”


About: I believe I’m the best person for this because I have a deep understanding of what it takes to care for animals with unique needs. Years ago, I had an older dog who required a lot of attention. When I was in high school, I worked hard and earned excellent grades. As a reward, my dad gave me a choice: I could finally have the Golden Retriever I had always dreamed of, or I could adopt an older dog who was about to be put down. Without hesitation, I chose to save the senior dog. He had been passed from home to home, and no one knew his exact age. When I rescued him, I was told he was five years old, but after taking him to the vet, I learned he was actually 12. We made it our mission to give him the best life possible. Though he was only with us for three years, I truly believe those were the best years of his life. In his final months, he required extra care—he was blind and needed medication. Despite everything, I felt in my heart that I had to treat him as if he were my own child. We took him to parks, beaches, and on walks to make sure he enjoyed every moment. He even had two puppies, and I still care for them to this day, giving them a happy, loving home. Most of the animals in my home are rescues, and caring for them has given me such a strong appreciation for the love and attention they deserve. This experience has shaped who I am, and it’s why I’m so passionate about providing the best care for every animal I meet. I believe my schedule is ideal for taking care of a dog. I work part-time as a cashier at a restaurant, and at home, it’s just my mom, my sister, my husband, and me. When I’m not around, my husband is always home since we have different work hours. I work in the mornings, and he works at night, so your dog will never be left alone. I live in a spacious home within a lovely community, where I share my life with four friendly dogs and three cats. My dogs are social and get along wonderfully with both other dogs and cats, creating a warm, welcoming environment. However, my cats prefer their own space and aren’t as fond of other cats, which is why I don’t offer boarding for them. My home is cozy and roomy, with all my pets enjoying the freedom to sleep on the bed or the furniture making them feel right at home!

About: With years of experience in dog handling, training, showing, and grooming, I provide expert, personalized care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Whether your pup needs structured walks, playtime, grooming, or help reinforcing good behavior, I’m here to support their well-being every step of the way. Working from home allows me to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day, and my fully fenced yard offers a safe space for supervised outdoor play. Now offering both dog walking and boarding, your pet will enjoy a loving, low-stress environment with consistent care and enrichment. For boarding clients, I also offer bathing and basic grooming services using professional equipment in my home—perfect for pups who need a little extra TLC during their stay. Whether it’s a daily walk or an extended stay, I treat every dog like family—and I’d be honored to care for yours! I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I'm available seven days a week for walks and boarding. With a background in rescue and rehabilitation, I understand how to safely handle dogs with a variety of needs and temperaments. I prioritize calm, structured environments and take the time to build trust—especially with dogs who may be shy, reactive, or slow to warm up. I'm attentive to detailed care instructions, including feeding routines and medication, and always strive to create a safe, respectful, and comfortable space for every pet in my care.

About: I have 6 years of hands-on pet care experience, starting with my own French Bulldog, who I’ve raised and trained from puppyhood.

My experience includes feeding and administering basic medications, leash training, crate training, socialization, and creating engaging playtime for dogs of all ages and temperaments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.

I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment.

For dogs, I provide regular walks suited to their energy level, making sure they get both exercise and mental stimulation. I monitor water and food intake, keep their living space clean, and give plenty of affection and attention. I’m attentive to body language and behavior so I can respond quickly to any signs of stress or discomfort, and I always send updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.

Meredith C.
“I can’t think of anyone I’d trust more to care for my pets than Lauren! She’s a true animal lover through and through. We were roommates for years, and during that time I had three cats—Lauren treated them like her own from day one. Whether it was making sure they were fed, playing with them, or just giving them love and attention, she was always genuinely invested in their happiness and well-being. It was no surprise to me when she adopted two cats of her own, Oliver and Milo, who are now two of the happiest, most spoiled cats I know! Lauren has a natural gift with animals and treats every pet like family. If you’re looking for a sitter who will not only take great care of your pets but will truly care about them, Lauren is your person. I would recommend her with absolute confidence to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet care!”


Kate R.
“Yes, I am Kate's proud Aunt first. However, this also gives me an inside view and allows me to brag and testify to anyone choosing a person to take care of their Dog that they would be lucky to have a chance to work with Kate. Kate has loved animals her entire life. I have watched her lovingly raise many pet fish, birds and hamsters throughout the years, but most impressive is the way she has loved and cared for her own dog, Allie, for the last 7+years. She really does it all! In fact, the entire family calls Kate the "dog whisperer" because her instincts with all dogs, and pets in general, is amazing. She is gentle, caring, knowledgeable, slightly stern when she needs to be, and she loves all pets - treating them all as if they are her own. I trust her implicitly with anyone's beloved pet, and so can you.”
