Pet care experience

Animal lover, flexible hours

I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have cared, watched, walked of all types of dogs for family, friends, and others! Any size, any age, it would be my pleasure to care for your pet as my own! I am currently working part-time and am available to play with your pups any time on Wednesdays & Fridays, varying times on Mondays, evenings/afternoons on Tuesdays and Thursdays. My home is available for overnight stays anytime! I have one small friendly dog who loves the company of others! The yard is newly fenced in, but we also like to take frequent neighborhood walks for exercise and potty breaks.

Arlo always has a great time with Lauren. It’s great to be away and know he is in safe hands. Thanks again.

Lauren was excellent - Pablo seems to have had a better getaway than we did! Thanks for the help and peace of mind.

Great experience! My kitties were well taken care of and photos were provided for each visit. Would definitely want Lauren as my pet sitter again!

Doggy Day Care • Jun 02, 2022

Lauren was amazing!!! I highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to watch their furry loved one. We have a new puppy and had to find someone to watch our dog for the day. I did not know what to do and was googling doggy day care around the area we where going. The rover information came up and it was all so easy from there. I appreciated the profiles, reviews and ease, so decided to try it. I had responses within minutes to watch my dog and felt very confident leaving him for the day. It was all just too easy!!! Lauren, could not have been better! She was so friendly and took photos and also text me with updates on how he was doing. Mr Foo had a great day and we where able to go do what we needed to do without any worry. I love this whole process and will definitely use it again. I am also such a dog lover myself and may even open up my home to others little furry loved ones. Thank you Lauren and Rover!!

Pets

A typical day

Walking is a great way to exercise and explore. If your dog is staying overnight, our neighborhood is set back and very private, so walks around the block are always fun!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Lauren can host up to 3 pets per night
I would love to have a meet & greet before to assure we will be a good fit. Please let me know if your dog is social/anxious, if they are taking any medications, enjoys special treats or knows any tricks. It is always fun to practice with someone new. If your pet is coming for an overnight stay, feel free to bring your pets favorite toys, but we also have plenty to share.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
