Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog or cat's temperament before taking care of them, just to ensure I have full understanding of your companion's personality and behaviors. Every animal is unique! I would also like to know if they are house-trained or crate-trained, if you plan on having them crated when I am not there. I would also appreciate any information regarding their previous medical history and any special diets/medications.

A typical day

I will be happy to walk your dog in the neighborhood, or go to a local park. I enjoy playing with your animals and their toys.

A vet student who adores animals

Pet care experience

Hello! I have been working in veterinary medicine since I was 16 years old, whether that be as a kennel technician, mixed practice assistant, ER assistant, general practice technician, or surgical technician. I am currently completing my final year as a veterinary student at UGA's CVM. Therefore, I have plenty of hands-on experience, including providing medicine by mouth and via injection. I love taking care of your family pets and treating them just as I would my own! I can guarantee that your pet will be in loving, caring hands. I love sending updates and photos to you so that you can see how happy and well your pets are doing.

Lauren was great with our cat Loretta. Loretta is an expert at finding new and interesting places to hide. Lauren was up to the challenge of finding Loretta and made sure she got her eye drops a couple of times a day. It was a huge relief to have someone provide this necessary care with kindness for our sometimes cranky and reclusive cat.

Lauren was great especially with it being a last minute booking around the holidays, she was able to accommodate us and made sure our babies were well taken care of. We will most definitely book with her again in the future.
