Pet care experience

Full Time Caregiver

I’ve taken care of dogs since middle school. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and care for their dogs. I treat them as if they were my own pet (:

Safety, trust & environment

I would greet your dog/ cat in a friendly manner and treat them as my own. I would play with them, walk them, and genuinely make them feel loved and as if they have a companion everytime I come over.

Lauren is the BEST! She has watched both our Great Dane, Penny, and our Persian cat, Ace, and they both love her!! Both pets are a little shy, but they come right up to her and get so excited to see her! I would trust Lauren anytime to watch my fur babies!!!

Lauren is my go-to pet sitter!! She has watched my dog Ellie numerous times. She always takes her on walks and sends me so many updates when she has her, which I love!! Ellie go nuts when Lauren comes to pick her up! Lauren treats Ellie like she’s her own dog which makes it easier to leave her in her care. We love Lauren!!

Schedule

Being a NICU nurse, I am no stranger to caring for the tiniest of patients. I moved to Florida a year ago after losing my 2 senior dogs. I miss being around pets and would love to care for your furry friend. I work per diem at the hospital so have full availability 4 days a week (schedule varies) On my off days, which include weekends, I am available 24/7.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Lauren can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pet had any preferences during walks or if they expect treats etc for doing certain things. If they need any medication, even injections, I am more than comfortable with administering as I’m a nurse myself as well as having a diabetic dog the last couple years.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
