Highlights
Pet care experience
Did someone say play date??
Hi, I’m Laniee — a passionate, dependable pet care provider with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and turning that passion into a lifelong career is something I’m actively working toward every day. I’m currently taking classes to continue advancing my knowledge in animal behavior, pet care, and training so I can provide the highest quality care possible for every pet I meet. I’m also in the beginning stages of building my own pet service business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee, which will eventually offer a wide range of mobile pet services including grooming, pet photography sessions, pet taxi services, training sessions, and more. What sets me apart is the amount of genuine love, patience, attention, and care I give to every animal as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to build trust with them at their pace. Even anxious or shy pets tend to warm up to me quickly. I live an active lifestyle, so I love spending time walking, playing, exploring, and keeping high-energy pets engaged and happy. I also enjoy slower-paced companionship for senior pets or animals who simply prefer cuddles and comfort. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, patience, transportation assistance, or extra attention, I’m here to help make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
Creating a safe, loving, low-stress environment for pets is always my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, protection, and affection I give my own pets. I’m a proud dog mom to my sweet girl, Coco Chanel, who has taught me so much about companionship, routine, emotional connection, and attentive care. Because of my experience with animals of different personalities and temperaments, I pay close attention to body language, comfort levels, triggers, and routines to help pets feel secure and relaxed. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency, cleanliness, supervision, exercise, enrichment, hydration, feeding schedules, and emotional comfort. I also have reliable transportation available for park visits, walks, vet appointments, grooming appointments, or unexpected situations if needed. I believe pets thrive when they feel understood, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. My goal is always to provide a calm, trustworthy, and positive experience for both pets and their owners. Feel free to message me with any questions. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members!
Ratings and reviews
Once again Lanie was amazing! She has sat for us several times and we will continue to use her. Great communication and the babies love her!
Lanie always does such an excellent job taking care of our cats! We have three rather high maintenance cats, all with their own quirks and needs, and Lanie is always so kind and sweet to accommodate them. She does a great job communicating with us and I love the pictures she sends! Highly recommended!
We love having Lanie take care of our kitties! It’s so nice to be able to go out of town and know that they’re being well cared for, especially since we have three and they all require different and specific care. Thank you!
Lanie was fantastic and took wonderful care of our 3 dogs. We also came back to a very clean house and received lots of pictures while we were away. We would recommend Lanie 100%!
Lanie, was amazing. She was so sweet and treated her dog like her own. She went above and beyond and would definitely use her again.
Whrn making this booking I requested in home care. As I had advised this sitter my dog has had issues in the past with separation anxiety and could not be left for more than a couple hours at a time. I let her know that if she needed to take care of things during the day marigold could be left for roughly 4 to 5 hours at a time. At the initial meet and greet when she came. She brought her dog which I advised her would be fine if she needed to have her pet in my home for the duration of the stay. I also let her know I had cameras in my home located in the living room to which I would use to monitor the home while I was away. She had ensured me that she would be with my pet the entirety of the 3 days and would be with marigold 100% of the stay. Upon leaving town after approximately 2 hours after her arrival at my home she asked if she could take my pet to her house for the remainder of the stay. Which I informed her I would not be comfortable having my pet at an unknown location with out me being able to see where she would be beforehand. After me checking my cameras after her arrival into my home there was a second person in my home and when I asked her who was in my home. She responded and told me her roommate was helping to bring her bags up. She then walks marigold and leaves the house. Upon checking my cameras again first thing this morning i seen that she returns at 7pm this same individual is with her in my home again and allows this person to spend the night in my home as well. This was not previously discussed or okayed by me what so ever. I then text her at 8 am to tell her that there is to be no one in my home with her she walked my dog and put her into the crate and left. When she realized that she had been reported to Rover for unacceptable activity in my home by bringing guest with her to stay she then flipped the script trying to say that she did not feel comfortable in my home since I had a camera in my living room. Which again from the meet and greet was made aware of and that I would be monitoring the activity in my home. Ultimately this "sitter" ruined a family vacation and left my pets without the adequate care they needed and I was paying for. I do not recommend booking with her.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because caring for animals is genuinely what I love doing. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I’m currently continuing my education in the pet care field while also working toward building my future business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee. Gaining hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, behaviors, and routines is extremely important to me because I want to continue growing long-term in this career. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet individually — their quirks, habits, energy levels, favorite activities, and comfort routines. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, overnight care, playtime, medication routines, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pet receives attentive and reliable care.
