Highlights
Pet care experience
Active and experienced dog boarding/walking/sittin
Hello! I’m a life long animal lover living in Norwich with my dog and 2 cats. I looked after friends and neighbours dogs and cats throughout my childhood. My dog was challenging at first as she had very severe separation anxiety and then we found out she had epilepsy! We’ve been very lucky as through training she can now be left alone just fine and she outgrew her epilepsy. We’ve definitely gained some experience in dog training and care through this though. I have I now work from home so I have the flexibility to provide whatever care your pets need whether that be staying in your house with them, boarding them at my home or drop in visits (within close proximity to NR2 if during the day) if you’re only out for the day. My house has a large and fully fenced garden and while we may be in the city we are within walking distance from Sloughbottom Park and Sweet Briar Marsh, the latter of which you’d have no idea you’re so near Norwich! Please get in touch with any questions and I look forward to speaking with you!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Lauren is an amazing pet sitter who genuinely cares about animals and their well being! Lauren looked after my senior cat, Mosby, for a week. Mosby is a high-needs cat who takes pills, insulin jabs, and was recovering from an oral operation. Lauren came over twice to learn Mosbys routine and gave plenty of updates throughout her stay. Mosby tends to get separation anxiety and can be a difficult cat to care for, but Lauren was a pro and I was so happy to come home and find Mosby so at peace :) Lauren is by far the best pet sitter we have had in Norwich and I would absolutely recommend her services
Lauren was extremely professional and trustworthy! She updated us with photos and took great care of our (fairly difficult) dog and cat!
Lauren is an excellent dog Walker. Very responsive and responsible, she is very reliable and organised. Our dog is very frightened of new people but he loves Lauren. Lauren considers things like heat and fatigue and adjusts her walks accordingly. Can’t recommend her enough
Lauren is a very reliable dog sitter. She was right on time even when we asked her to come early. We’ve just moved into our flat and so things were in a bit of disarray when showing her around, but she was very kind and patient and listened carefully to the long information we provided on Tonka. It was clear from the get-go our picky senior dog took a liking to her and that put us well at ease. We will definitely reach out in the future.
Lauren was so lovely. Came over for a free meet and greet to say hi to Ernest. On the day, she sent me little text updates and even let him share her bed which he would only have done if completely comfortable with her. Will definitely book her again. Thank you
Lauren was great with our dylan. She was punctual, respectful and communicative. She was happy to do a meet and greet ahead of the sitting and kept in touch on the day.

Schedule
I’m work remotely with very occasional travel to the office so dates can be arranged around this. I already walk my dog twice a day so any adjustments to fit another dog into our routine would be minimal and my dog would be happy to go on a 3rd walk if that’s what yours needs!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced large (for the city centre) garden, an incredibly friendly female dog and a cat that pays no notice of dogs and another who loves them. The former is skittish so your dog would need to be the sort who will ignore or be nice to cats and not play/chase, even if it is in a friendly way, she won’t see it like that!
