Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet's New Best Friend! :)
I am very passionate about giving a pet their best life by taking them to experience new places and things because the world is beautiful and I love showing them pieces of it that I may take for granted. Being raised in a pet family, I learned lots of skills that I use in my day to day life like responsibility, integrity, loyalty, patience, and kindness. I grew up with a Golden Retriever, Husky, and American Eskimo. I loved and cared for all of them, while growing confident in my skills of: teaching tricks, bathing them, cleaning up messes, playing with them, walking them, taking them out to go potty, feeding them, grooming them, and loving on them. I cannot wait to have the opportunity of meeting more cute dogs in the future!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I ensure that all pet needs are met and check on the pet at least 3x time a day (subject to change depending on the owners preferences). I take them out to go potty, I feed them food and water, and I take them on at least one walk per day. I will spend a portion of time playing with them and giving them attention to ensure they feel loved. If I am watching them during the weekend, I will take them to a park and to grab a pup cup, with the owners permission. If they get dirty or leave a mess, I will make sure to clean them up and the mess up as well. Overall, I want the owner to come back to a stress-free home and to a healthy & happy pet!
Ratings and reviews
Lauren did an amazing job caring for our pets and home while we were away. She was attentive, communicative, and incredibly kind. She kept up with our dogs’ walks and routines, was mindful about not leaving long gaps between visits. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring hands. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for house. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!
Lauren was the best! Sent so many sweet updates and my pets LOVED her! Will definitely be using her anytime we need a sitter!
Lauren is truly AMAZING. From the moment she arrived, she was so sweet, calm, and patient with our dogs. She took the time to get to know them, understood their little quirks, and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. She took them out regularly, kept us updated, and treated them with so much kindness that it felt like they were her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will absolutely be using her again in the future.
Lauren was wonderful, will definitely trust her with my fur babies for all future trips!
Lauren is an amazing and trustworthy pet caregiver! She’s incredibly responsible, patient, and truly loves every animal she looks after. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding, or just giving them extra attention, she always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and cared for. Pets instantly feel comfortable around her, and she treats them like her own. I’d highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a dependable, loving caregiver!
