Dog and Cat Care + Training Exp.
Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 6 or 7. I have fed bottle-baby kittens and helped to raise some well-behaved pups. I have had experience with my families own senior dogs, as well as having experience pet sitting for senior dogs and senior cats. I also have spent time working at a vet clinic, have 6 months professional experience leading positive reinforcement dog training classes and have worked as an animal care technician at a shelter. Along with these experiences I have also cared for plants, fish, small mammals, and reptiles if that is needed.
Reviews
Lauren was great with my two dogs and knowledgeable about dog care and training!
Lauren has been an incredible house/dog sitter for our family. We are so appreciative of her thorough updates and personal connection that she is forming with our dog. She is attentive to our dog's specific needs and we're so grateful that we can trust her to care for him. Thank you Lauren!
Was able to take our dogs last minute and did a great job.
Lauren has great knowledge of training techniques and dog behavior. She does a great job of getting the dogs out for walks and a change of scenery. My home was immaculate as well. I look forward to using Lauren again soon.
About Lauren H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Every pet parent is different so I tend to stick to what the regular schedule is while pet sitting. After I have finished things like feeding, walking, and cleaning I also like to spend some time with each animal, letting them get to know me and making sure they are happy and healthy. I have walked large, medium, and small breed dogs but I do not like to do pack walks or walks with extra large breeds. I love to do play times and will always use safe dog/cat toys and encourage good behavior during a session.
Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet
Any medications, health concerns, or behavioral concerns you may have for your pet are always important. Its also helpful to know about the neighborhood, where your pet likes to go and where they shouldn't be.
A typical day
I like to scatter play sessions or outings in the morning or evening, with relaxation, meal times, and extra potty breaks closer to when i work.
Services
Lauren can watch in your home
Availability
I can pet sit, dog walk, or play with your animals every week Monday-Friday. Upon request if your dog needs a buddy, I can bring my 1 yr old husky/shepherd mix Miska, she is a polite and adaptive player with other dogs and is trained and accustomed to cats.
