Caring & Reliable Walker/Sitter

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 8 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets through long trips away. For 30 minute walks, depending on your dogs speed I typically walk .8 -1.4 mile, that range depends of course on dog breed and their activity level. For 60 minute walks, typically for larger breeds with high energy, we usually walk around 2-2.75 miles, with water breaks during the walk especially in hotter conditions. After walks I can make sure that your pet has plenty of water and feed them if asked to! I can also administer medication or any other routine that your dog may have.

Lauren is an angel who came down on this earth and we'll be forever grateful for her attitude, her spirit, and the love and attention she shared with our pets. Her summaries and pictures are also great, it was an excellent experience and honestly I could not recommend her enough

My husband and I would like to Thank Lauren for taking good care of our fur babies while we went out of town. She would send us daily updates with pictures, which made me more comfortable while away. Thank you again Lauren, we appreciate you.

Lauren is great. She worked well with my 10 month old with lots of energy. Very understanding and she communicated very well. I am going to keep using her services for as long as possible, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and patient Dogsitter/walker.

Lauren was amazing! Loved having her do a few drop in visits for my two small dogs while we were away. She was really friendly and communicative and easy to book! She went the extra mile with making sure my pups were taken care of and with entrusting her to come in and out of our house. Thanks for being so sweet Lauren! Can’t wait to book with you again!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your pet as if they are my own, providing them with love, care, and my full attention. Your dog or cats safety and comfort is my number 1 priority. During walks I am constantly scanning our environment and your pets behavior in order to make sure that they are confident on our route and that there are no triggers that may leave them with a less than amazing experience. I can update you as much as you would like during your pets drop in visit, stay, or walk, and my line of communication is always open.

Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any allergies, any fears or triggers, or if they need to be kept away from any other dogs! The most important thing is keeping your dog comfortable, safe, and happy.

A typical day

A typical day with your pet would include a nice walk, time to sniff around the neighborhood, and me checking to see if they have water or food until you return. I also like to play with your pet if they are playful, and I do talk to them (animals seem to really appreciate this especially when their owner is gone for a longer time).

I recently graduated from UC Davis and I am currently working part-time at an optometry office, so I have plenty of time to care for your dogs or cats. My schedule is super flexible so we can definitely figure something out.
