Pet care experience

Your pet will have fun with us!

Animals are the best. 😍 My fiance and I have had dogs that love running and dogs that have needed a little convincing to get on a walk. We are patient with dogs and love making them happy! We are both athletic but fully capable of having a chill night at home. My car is dog-friendly (Toyota RAV4) along with our home. Our neighborhood is safe and we have sidewalks surrounding us. Our yard is fully fenced in and we have zero stairs in our home. I’d also love to come to your home just to play or take care of your pet while you’re busy/away. As a wedding photographer, I am available on most weekdays and some weekends. We will send photo updates to you throughout our time with your pet! Let me know if you need help! I’d love to meet your best friend. I am a wedding photographer in St. Augustine and work from home whenever I'm not at a wedding! I have time throughout the day to check in on your pets or hang out with them while I edit. I can't wait to meet your BFF! I care for pets as if they are my own. I would never put them in harm's way and I always make sure my home is clean and tidy. Your animals are as important to me as they are to you!

Lakin was great and reliable. My dog seemed very happy. I hired her for a combo of housesitting and dog walks. She kept the house to clean you would have never known she was there!

Lakin was a great host and took excellent care of my two dogs for a week. Pickup and drop off were easy, communication was prompt, and Henry & Delia had so much fun they didn’t want to go home. I recommend Lakin to anyone on Rover and would definitely trust her with my pets again next time I go out of town.

I will care for your pet just as you would. I take any of your tips and tricks to heart and make sure to apply them when caring for your pet. Every animal is different and I understand that!

Pets

A typical day

I live close to pet-friendly parks where there isn't a lot of people there during the daytime. Brining them there would be easy and fun! My yard is also large enough for dogs to run and play. Cats would have a blast exploring the different rooms in my house as well.
