Safety, trust & environment

I will stay with pets and provide attention and care as long as each pet desires! I will also walk dogs and complete check-ins for the desired length/time daily. I will ensure pets are secure, safe, and comfortable in every environment and communicate any concerns or questions I may have!

Information Lauren D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special healthcare or behavior requirements, including medication schedules, daily routines, feeding schedules, and any other information that's unique to your pet! I have experience administering pills and liquid medicine orally, as well as topical medications to both dogs (large & small) and cats. I also have experience caring for dogs with dementia and loss of eye sight & hearing. I always want to be aware of any potential care needs!

A typical day

My typical day involves anything your pet prefers! I love to take dogs for walks and let them explore new areas and smells. I have puzzles for dogs that need more mental stimulation in addition to toys for physical exercise! I will also lounge with dogs that prefer a less active day. I love caring for cats and will provide them with as much or little attention as they desire, and I have cat toys for those that are more playful. I strive to provide personalized pet care to meet each animal's unique needs!

Pet care experience

I've lived with and cared for small and medium dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. I have also cared for neighbor's, friend's, and family's pets for the past 12 years. Throughout this time, I have cared for puppies and kittens, adult dogs and cats, and senior pets who have more advanced care needs. I have experience administering medications to cats and dogs. Additionally, I have been an avid volunteer at a local animal rescue for the past 12 years. I began my time at the rescue in the Cattery caring for cats of all ages, sizes, and health conditions. In 2018, I began as a volunteer with both Large and Small dogs at the shelter. In addition to general care at the rescue, I administer medications to both cats and dogs of all sizes, care for dogs and cats recovering from surgery, and handle large and small dogs in the outdoor play yards.

Lauren was amazing caring for my cat Toby for both a short weekend trip as well as a longer week away. She was so easy to communicate with for setting up a meet & greet and any scheduling details. She provided great updates and went above and beyond to offer to lean in case I had any travel delays returning home. Would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone and looking forward to booking her again!

Lauren was great! Stayed at our house and took care of our dog while we were away. Kept us updated everyday and sent lots of pictures. I felt at ease knowing our pet was in good hands! Would definitely book again.

Lauren is incredible and dependent. We had a happy, excited cat coming home that had been well taken care of. She took time with him each day so he didn’t feel so lonely. I would recommend Lauren x 1 million.

Lauren was incredible! She took great care of my cat while I was out of town. She was always on time, sent so many pictures, and great updates! She paid attention to all the little details and really went above and beyond.
