Safety, trust & environment

At home, I have two cats that receive about 1 hour a day of active playtime with me. When they are not in a playing mood, I am the ultimate cuddled while respecting their boundaries when they feel overwhelmed.

Information Lauren C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cats would like an active visit, with playing, petting, and quality time or if your cat is shy and would prefer someone to quietly take care of their needs and respecting their space.

A typical day

I typically like to play with cats in the morning and the early evening when they are most active and energetic. This includes the cat dancer toy that is very popular and Costco boxes

Pet care experience

I have two cats, one which is a playful cuddle bug and the other is a timid shy cuddle bug. Which means I am equipped with the skills to care for a wide range of cat personalities! I work remote, so I am able to visit in on your furry friend whenever is best for them, I know lots of cats are creatures of habit and I don't want their schedule to change and cause additional stress when you are out of town. I have been known to spend more than the allotted 30mins or 1hr of visit time when a cat is really interacting with me, I want to make sure they are getting all the care and attention before heading out of your place for the visit! I love hanging out with cats, playing with them, and cuddling them when they are missing their owners!! I recently took classes in pet CPR and choking to give ease of minds to owners when they leave their pets in my care. Reach out for any cat sitting needs!

Lauren was amazing, she did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats, she came every day followed directions and sent us detailed reports on how they were doing with lots of pictures. Our cats were thriving and it was a great comfort to know they were in such good hands. We were having some work done in our bathroom while we were away and Lauren was really adaptable with the times she came over. She went above and beyond doing extras like bringing in our mail and feeding our fish. I will be hiring Lauren again next time we go away for sure!

My cat has always been shy towards new people, but he LOVED Lauren. That says enough about her and who she is.

Lauren took great care of our two cats while we were away for a week! She did twice a day visits, sent detailed updates + photos, and was very responsive to our input and the cats needs.

Lauren is the best. My cat Luna hates being alone but Lauren was there for her on-time every day while I was in Italy. She kept in close contact with photos and chats and I never once worried about Luna. Will hire her again next time I'm away. Thanks Lauren!
