Veterinary Student and Animal Lover

Hi! I am a first year veterinary medicine student and have experience with a variety of different animals. I have worked as a veterinary technician, so I have been trained in first aid, as well as oral and injectable medication administration. I can accommodate pets of all ages, temperaments, and health conditions. I have experience working with shelter animals, and have also worked for three years training, caring for, and socializing puppies. This has provided me with the experience and knowledge to care for a variety of animals, including pets with special needs and those with reactivity and/or anxiety. Their comfort is my biggest priority, so I’m more than happy to accommodate any special requests!

Lauren was amazing with Ares during his overnight stay! She went above and beyond by keeping him active, taking him to the dog park, and making sure he had a fun and enjoyable experience while I was away. The biggest testament to how wonderful she was is that when Ares saw her again the next day, he was so excited and clearly wanted to be with her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy. I would absolutely trust Lauren with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic dog sitter!

Lauren was fantastic. She gave many updates with photos and was very easy to communicate with. My dog did great under her care and came home happy and healthy.

As always, she handled my dogs very well. One has been cranky all week but she had no issues with him. Would book again.

Lauren was great with Eliza! And she was quite flexible with my changing schedule. I was particularly grateful for the pics she sent me during Eliza’s stay with her.

My dogs loved her and she had no problem managing them in the yard with no fence. I will definitely use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I grew up with a pup who required special attention for his anxiety, so I have endless patience and experience with dogs who need a more quiet, patient approach! I also have experience walking very large, reactive, and/or high energy type dogs through my volunteering at the humane society.

Pets

A typical day

I have experience walking all types of dogs, whether your pup is a speed walker and needs to get the miles in, or a slow walk and sniff kind of dog, their needs will be fulfilled with me!

Lauren can host up to 3 pets per night
I appreciate knowing any special likes or dislikes such as favorite toys or potential triggers for reactiveness. Some other helpful tidbits could be if they are food driven, typical behavior, and other such things. Anything you deem important to them having a positive experience, I am happy to do all I can to accommodate that!
