Safety, trust & environment

I am good at reading animals’ signals. I have a dog who is not comfortable around others so I have experience rerouting on walks and being patient with nervous animals.

Information Lauren G. would like to know about your pet

Are your pets more relaxed or high energy? Any medical needs? Do they get nippy when excited/are they a jumper? I can handle all of these, I just like to know beforehand!

A typical day

I let your pet decide! We can do a long walk to burn off energy. Some dogs just want to do their business and head back in and that’s fine too, I’ll stay and play inside or we can relax and just get some belly rubs in. During the summer I make sure to take note of how hot the ground is, we don’t want any scorched paws! I’m flexible, just let me know what your pet enjoys and we will do it!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Lauren and my passion for pets is like no other. I've had a dog in my life for as long as I can remember. I know firsthand that pets are family and I will make sure to treat yours like family, too! I'm used to being around all different types/temperaments of dogs and cats. If your pet is shy or has separation anxiety I will take the extra time to make sure they’re comfortable. My dog is my world and I’d want the same for my pet. My goal is that both you and your pet(s) are happy! I've been a Rover walker/sitter for several years, but took some time off after having my daughter, and I'm looking to get some clients again. I have worked with dog and cat trainers during my time in the entertainment industry, so I have training experience as well. You can trust that I will give you your money's worth out of my time with your pet. I communicate effectively and will send lots of photos. *Disclaimer: I have a 3 year old who will be accompanying me on walks some of the time. If your animals are not child friendly I encourage you to find another sitter, however I am responsible with my child being around unfamiliar animals. Additionally, if you have more than one dog over 30 lbs I cannot walk both at once if she’s with me alone. Thank you for understanding! My husband also sometimes comes with me or can take a walk/drop in if I’m working. He is very experienced with animals as well. I will always ask/notify if he is with me or would be covering for me.*

I can not express how happy we are to have found Lauren! The daily updates and pictures from each walk made us feel so at ease and really made our day. From the first walk to the last Lauren never kept us in the dark. Please do not hesitate to hire Lauren. We are thrilled to have found someone we can trust with part of our family! Thank you Lauren for everything!
