Love pets and have experience!

Pet care experience

I currently volunteer at Mohawk Hudson Humane society at least once a month. Helping out at the shelter has taught me so much in a short period of time in addition to my previous experience. I have grown up with two dogs and have always helped taking care of them whether its walking them, cleaning up after them, getting them to the groomers or vet, to just spending time with them. My dogs are medium size but I’ve also grown up with large dogs like my grandparents black lab to my grandmother's small teddy bear dog Buddy. So size is not an issue as well as breed. I would love to help you make sure you’re pet is taken care of when you are busy or away. I know how much love and attention a pet needs everyday and whatever makes them feel comfortable I can help to do! Let me know if you have any questions and looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Also recently adopted a rescued domestic shorthair calico cat. I’ve named her Stevie! I adopted my other calico cat Lana this year as well. Also have a red and blue betta fish named Sushi. Currently working full time so I only have evenings and weekends available.

Lauren was highly professional and we definitely hope to use her again! Our dog, Zelda, loved having Lauren for company while we were away! Zelda is a large senior dog with lots of health issues (epilepsy, deaf, partially blind). Lauren was able to give her necessary medications without issue. She also sent us plenty of photos and updates and took in our mail. Thank you, Lauren!

I usually spend quality time with my pets and my client’s for at least 30 minutes depending on how much activity the pet needs at the time. I love to spend as much time with animals as I miss my childhood dogs back home since I moved away. My cat and fish have been wonderful. I make sure each of my pets has a good routine and is comfortable in a new environment or with new people.

Information Lauren B. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences! Just let me know any specific health concerns. Favorite activities too. Have hunting dog experience but keeping in mind they are very friendly and don’t hunt with my dad much anymore as they age so not as active as they used to be. My dog can also be reactive to certain situations on walks so we either turn around and cut the walk short if someone else is already outside walking a dog. Please let me know ahead of time if your dog would prefer not being approached by others on walks or other things like that to avoid a potentially serious situation from occurring.

A typical day

Walks around the park in my neighborhood. Fetch or toys! Hiking mountains and trails. Reading or playing music while hanging with pets. Cuddles when watching tv is Toby dog’s favorite. All my current pets love to sit on the couch or window sill near me.

I work full time. So I take care of my pets in the morning and evening when I get home from work. They all are easy to care for. I typically run home to walk my dog at lunch time.
