Pet care experience
I treat all the pets I watch as if they are a part of my family! That means they can jump on the couch, and cuddle with me in bed, so they feel as comfortable. I live in a 3 bedroom Ranch. I have a spare guest bedroom with a queen sized bed that will be their room. AKA a safe palace for them to acclimate and go to when quiet time is needed. (Avail for cats and dogs) I have a large fenced in backyard that is directly attached to my house! This makes for quick and easy bathroom breaks and energy releases throughout the day! In addition I have a screened in porch (cats LOVE this)! They are more than welcome to have screened in porch time to enjoy the birds and pretend they are outside! My house is right next to the Holliston Rail Trail for active pups that love to go on a nice walk :) Dog gates and Cat screens are available to help with the transition to a new space All pets are allowed on beds, couches and anywhere in the home! I treat them as if they are a part of the family! I have a cat named Lillie! She’s amazing! Don’t fear, she is comfortable being around pets or spending time alone in her own room while I watch your pets! I also have a puppy named Milo! He’s an English Black Lab! When watching your pets, I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. Please pack with them special toys, bowls, leashes, food, litter boxes, favorite blankets! I find pets love to still have the familiar scent of home as they adjust their time with me! I provide picture updates as needed as well! I try for daily updates! Meet and greets preferred to make sure I’m the right fit and happy to show you my house where they would be staying. Please reach out if you have any more questions! Happy to see how I can help :)
Reviews
Lauren was great while we were away! She stopped by twice/day to check on our kittens and feed them, clean the litter box, change the water etc for ten days while we were on vacation. She also was super helpful by checking the mail each day and bringing our trash and recycling to the street on pick up day. We also liked getting photos of our buddies while we were away.
Lauren is the best! Highly recommend booking with her!!!
Spencer had a great time at Lauren's! He got plenty of exercise and play time with friend's. He is probably bored to be home after his vacation.
Lauren is a responsible, reliable dog sitter who clearly loves all creatures. She has a great set up with a beautiful fenced in back yard. I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy in her capable hands. My pup has only had two days with her but I highly recommend her!

Information Lauren D. would like to know about your pet
Iedally I like to know if there are any special medical or dietary needs. In addition dog friendliness and how well trained they are! I don't want to take them on a walk on the railtrail if they're too dog reactive! Fenced in backyard is EXCELLENT for these dogs that liek their space and get energy out!
A typical day
A typical day will be wake up, let them outside for a potty break, feed breakfast, play outside or go on a 30min-1 hour walk! Lunchtime and another walk or let them play in the fenced in backyard and nighttime walk and dinner followed by sleeping in bed/crate/couch! Whatever they prefer! Same schedule with cats but they will be able to roam around the house and find cozy places to nap!
