Safety, trust & environment

I value trust and security, and it is very important to me that the environment is stress-free for both the owner and the pet. I always follow instructions carefully and communicate as needed. I understand that every home and pet is different, and I am very adaptable to your needs.

Information Lauren F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any sensitivities or do not get along with others. I like to make sure they are comfortable in their space.

A typical day

Whenever I meet a new pet, I like to learn about their personality. Every animal is different, and it's fun to see their quirks and behavior. Both cats and dogs can get lonely, so I like to give them company and lots of playtime if needed. I believe it's important to provide pets with physical and mental stimulation in order for them to be healthy.

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets for most of my life and would love to bring my experience and love for animals to your family. Growing up, I cared for our Aussie Shephard through daily meals and neighborhood walks. I also provided dog-walking services for neighbors and took their dogs out on long hikes. Currently, I’m the proud owner of a 3.5 year old kitty who keeps me busy with attention and playtime. I love being able to hang out with animals and get to know their personalities and their needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and dedication as I provide to my own.

Lauren has walked Ruby several times and even stepped in last minute when we were in a pinch. Really appreciate having a reliable dog walker close by!

Lauren has cared for both my dog and elderly cat - they both love her. She is responsive, kind and quick to send photos and updates. It makes such a difference to know that my animals are well loved and cared for when I can’t be home!
