Lauren B. has Star Sitter status

Lifelong lover of pets of all sizes

Pet care experience

***PLEASE NOTE: I am no longer accepting Border Collies, Rottweilers, German Shepherds or "bully" breeds. I'm so sorry! We've recently had issues with keeping everyone safe and I can't risk it. *** NOT ACCEPTING UNNEUTERED MALES *** --------------------------------------------------------------- I've been around animals my whole life, including adult dogs, puppies, cats/kittens, small animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, birds, and as an adult chickens and goats too! A home without pets is not a home I want to live in! I also have experience with senior and special needs animals and have a tender heart for animals healing from traumatic experiences. People frequently come to me for advice with their animals, and I've also been known to take in animals that have been discarded by others.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand and know that if people choose to have animals and find a sitter, they truly love them as their babies! I worked with (human) children for 15+ years, was a foster mom for 7 years, and have always had pets throughout my life; these furry friends are God's gift to mankind to bring us joy and laughter! I always treat other people's pets with respect, love, and kindness - they are part of the family too!

Availability

Pet care is already a big part of our lives in my house, from feeding the cats in the morning and evening (with one senior kitty who gets fed special food separately), an energetic Goldendoodle (Thor) who goes outside to potty and play several times a day, and feeding our chickens (and maybe stealing a chicken hug). I learned so much from all the different animals I had growing up, and I love teaching my kids some of those same things!
