Reliable and available sitter! 🐕

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with pets my entire life (dogs, cats, hampsters, Guinea pigs, you name it) and have loved dogs since I was a little kid. I have over 10 years of experience dog sitting for friends and family. A few years ago I rescued my four year old dog Winston from the Greater Charlotte SPCA while living in Charlotte, NC. Since bringing him home I have gained a great deal of experience taking care of dogs and have cared for many dogs in my prior apartment complex and for other friends as well! In February of 2022, after relocating back to my home state of CT, I rescued my 8 year old dog Ricky Bobby. Needless to say, I have a wealth of experience handling stubborn dogs after owning a senior chihuahua! No matter the breed or temperament I look forward to caring for your pets! I love getting to know new pups and spending time with them walking, playing and cuddling. Whatever your dog needs, I’ll be sure to provide the best care possible to make them comfortable while you are away.

Lauren was great! She met my dog before walking him and answered all our questions. On the day of the walk, she arrived right on time. I received several pictures of my dog, who was clearly quite happy. I highly recommend Lauren.

Lauren was wonderful with my puppy. She communicates well and is so positive. Truly a great experience. We would love for her to watch Luna anytime again. ?

Lauren was great! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous but Lauren put my mind at ease. She communicated, provided great photos and left my home in its original condition. She was on time, was close by and really did a great job. I will make sure to book with her for my futuer pet care needs and really appreciate her patience, kindness and excellent customer service!

Lauren was great with our two pups! She quickly responded to my messages and was great about sending updates and pictures while watching them. We did not have to worry at all knowing Lauren was taking great care of Riggs and Roscoe. I would recommend her to friends and family.

Safety, trust & environment

As a pet parent myself, I understand how difficult it is leaving your baby and home in someone else’s care. I promise to treat your pups and home as my own. It’s so important to find a sitter you can trust and not worry about when out of town and I hope to be that peace of mind for you and your family!

Information Lauren D. would like to know about your pet

-What is their normal daily routine? Is there a set meal/ bathroom schedule? -Do they have any behaviors I should be aware of/ habits you are working on avoiding? (Chewing furniture, accidents, aggression on walks, excessive barking, etc)? -Are they allowed on furniture? -How do they behave when home alone? Can they roam free, or do they need to be crated? -Any other quirks I should know, or things they’re scared of? (vacuum, thunder, ect) -Any medications? -Would you like updates and photos?

A typical day

At home I keep my dogs Winston and Ricky Bobby engaged throughout the day by playing games and going for long walks to stimulate them both mentally and physically, which I can do for your pup as well! We take plenty of walks throughout the area that provides plenty of new smells and sights for the pups!
