Pet care experience

🐈 Reliable dog & cat care 🐕

Hello there! I'm Lauren. I'm delighted that you've clicked on my sitter profile and are considering me to take care of your pet(s). I am reliable, mature, and trustworthy. You can relax knowing your pet is in my care! I have been a pet sitter with Rover since 2018, and I truly believe it's the best job in the world! Being a pet sitter for so many years means I have tons of experience with a whole range of animals, from smaller dogs to larger breeds, senior pets, puppies, kittens, pets with anxiety and more. I am adaptable to suit the needs of any pet to ensure they are comfortable in my care. I am also experienced in administering medication, including injections and oral medications. I have completed animal first aid/CPR courses, and refresh my knowledge regularly. Additionally, I've dedicated my time volunteering at a local shelter which has given me a wealth of knowledge and experience in caring for animals. I am fully background checked, and I prioritize trustworthiness and reliability. Striving for perfection, I go the extra mile during my visits. After each session, I'll provide you with a detailed summary, along with plenty of photos and videos of all the fun we will be having. My aim is to give you peace of mind while your pet is under my care. I love all pets like they are my own! I can also provide services like bringing the mail/packages inside, alternating lights/blinds and watering plants at your request.

Great job as always!! What a treat for my kitty cat to have such a great pet sitter. Lauren goes above and beyond and always has a great report with photos of my cat from each visit and she’s very diligent and caring and concerned about the welfare of my cat Ottis. Thank you again!

Lauren is always so incredible with my little Bean! She never fails to play with him and tire him out, he gets SO excited to see her every time! She truly treats him like her own and I’m so grateful.

Cannot live without this woman. She is just a cat whisperer. Not only does she give me a day by day play-by-play on my baby. She’s personable and reliable. Cannot recommend enough.

I try to keep your pet on a similar schedule and routine as they're used to, to help ease any anxiety or stress. Therefore, I like to know their feeding and medication schedule (if any), any favorite toys/treats, any behavioral quirks, hiding places and any other routines they may have. Lastly, it is essential for you to provide up to date veterinarian information, alongside an emergency contact, just in case of emergency.
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.
