Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When entering your home for a walk or drop-in, I’ll be respectful of your space and follow all instructions exactly as discussed. For dogs, I typically require a quick meet-and-greet before the first walk or visit so your pet can get comfortable with me and we can ensure it’s a great fit from the start.

Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet

Nothing is too small to mention — it all helps me give them the best care possible. Please share: • Any special needs or medication requirements • Comfort level around other dogs, children, and new people • Favorite treats, toys, routines, and scratch spots :)

A typical day

Whatever makes your pet happiest! Whether it’s a long neighborhood walk, a game of fetch, chasing feather wands, or simply cuddles, I love finding activities that keep them engaged and happy.

Compassionate Care for Senior Pets

Pet care experience

You can count on me to care for your pet as if they were my own! I’ve been pet sitting for over 15 years and have extensive experience with both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I’ve cared for pets with special needs, including epilepsy, deafness, and partial blindness, and I’m comfortable administering medications and offering the extra patience and attention they deserve. As a lifelong cat owner, I have just as much experience with feline friends as I do with dogs. I currently have a young cat named Saffie and previously cared for my senior cat, Beatrice — so I understand both the high-energy zoomies and the slower senior pace. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, or a little extra TLC, I’m here to help!

As always, Lauren is great! She consistently does a wonderful job with my mini dachshund! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, communicative, and reliable Rover!

Lauren was great and easy to communicate with! She came to meet poppy and before she came over to let poppy out. I’d recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
