Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My approach to pet care and training is based around Grisha Stewart's approach. I believe establishing trust, positive reinforcement, and providing healthy mental and physical exercise according to your dog's individual needs is the best approach to keeping a happy companion.

She was great with our dogs. They were well taken care of and we appreciated her communication.

The dogs loved her instantly! She kept me updated with videos and photos throughout the stay. The dogs seemed to really enjoy their time with her. I would absolutely use her again!

Lauren has watched our chocolate lab, Buffy, many many times, over many years, often for several days in a row at our home and hers. Lauren knows so much about dogs, their temperament, their care, and how dogs interact with each other. You can tell she has done extensive research. Buffy just loves her and we trust she will care for Buffy as well, if not better, than we do! Lauren also gives us tips like “please brush her once a week” or “try switching more healthy treats”. Lauren is the very first person we go to when we need a sitter for Buffy.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. My own dog struggles with fear reactivity. I am happy to do my best to work with reactive and anxious dogs on a case by case basis. Communication between us is key, but all dogs deserve time, patience, and love!
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.
