Veterinary student at UF

Pet care experience

I am a third year veterinary student at the University of Florida, interested in helping out neighbors in need of petsitting/dog walking. I have been training and competing with dogs in agility for the last 13 years. I have obtained a MACH and ADCH (two of the most prestigious agility titles) as well as attended 5 different national events with two different dogs. Prior to vet school, I taught agility classes and private lessons full time. Through agility and teaching, I have had the opportunity to work with numerous different dog breeds and have grown to love them all. In addition, I have previously worked as a veterinary technician at a practice specializing in canine rehab and acupuncture, as well as a boarding kennel technician. Now, I am living in Gainesville while attending vet school with my three border collies. We are looking to help out neighbors and friends with their pet sitting needs while finishing up school.

Lauren is really a sigh of relief when it comes to watching dogs. Too many times do I see owners really struggling with their pet, whether it is finding a cheap place to board them, or someone that they can trust to leave their family member with for any period of time. Well, Lauren is all of that and much more. She is so caring and really pays attention to your dog as much as reasonably possible while you are away. She doesn't just feed them and leave them to sit by themselves all day every. She really makes an effort to make your pet feel right and home during their entire stay or even on something as simple as a walk. She has spent over half of her life training dogs and caring for multiple at a time, so experience is never a doubt with her. All in all, when looking for any sort of pet care, look no further. Lauren is the sitter for you!

Lauren is a wonderful dog sitter! She has watched my dog numerous times, and not only do I feel comfortable leaving her in Lauren's care but my dog absolutely loves to see her. She is kind, compassionate, and fun. She is a veterinary student and knows what to look for if a pet is acting unhealthy while you are away, and she also is an dog agility trainer and won't teach your pet any bad habits while you're gone. I can't recommend Lauren enough!
