Nomadic Nurturer🚙☮️🐾🌞🌳🧘🏽‍♀️

Pet care experience

Empath. Nurturer. Wanderer.💜🌱🦋✨ I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was younger in providing care giving to the pets of my family and neighbors growing up. Since 2020, I’ve begun to provide care and nurturing for pets when the pandemic started for friends, family and coworkers as many people had started traveling and returning back to work again. I still continue to provide this loving and nurturing care as available. I am very reliable with pets, plants and homes. I am a vegan and I love and have great respect and appreciation for all animals and Mother Nature. I am great with building and maintaining a nice routine for dogs including walking, napping, play time, food, treats, water and more. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, in-home or overnight stay, you will find peace of mind knowing that your fur babies are safe and secure in my care. During these times especially I know how important pet care can be, and I strive to make the fur babes that I care for feel loved, centered and grounded! I treat the pets that I care for as if they were my own and a part of my family! I care for pets by spending time with them playing or relaxing, giving them love and pets and cuddles, allowing them to roam free within the same vicinity and keeping a close eye on them, I am also able to crate them as well if/when needed. I enjoy long walks and taking dogs on outdoor adventures and hikes as well. I care for a lot of pets that have separation anxiety and I am sure to incorporate aspects of meditation music and sound frequencies by having YouTube videos play during the day and especially at night before and during bedtime so that they can feel safe, secure, relaxed and at ease. I am a Sound Healer so this is also a part of my practice with the pets that I care for and I often play my singing bowls for those that I stay with to help relax and ease their minds. I have a lot experience with senior dog care as well as puppy care in addition to special needs dogs that require daily medications.

Lauren is an all-star human. She took amazing care of our girl Nala. She communicated with us daily including photos and how the day went- and made sure to ask questions if she needed to. It was a very long, daunting work trip week and coming home to a clean house and a dog who was clearly loved on and very happy filled our hearts ❤️. It was obvious that Lauren goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of. Thank you so much Lauren- we would absolutely hire you again and are happy to share referrals for future sits. Blessed to have connected (:

Fabulous first experience. Thank you Lauren. Loved the explanation of rover and the pic with you and linden! It was not only his first time with a dog walker in over a year but also a hot day for a snow dog and everything went great!

Lauren was a lifesaver when she accepted our reservation request super last minute for our prebooked week long cruise vacation where another rover sitter had cancelled and flaked on us only days before our departure date (after 2 meet and greet visits where scheduled and completed during our work week) and where Rover provided no assistance with finding a replacement, and offered only an insulting, microscopic "courtesty credit" for the "inconvenience" of having to find someone else super last minute, coordinating meet and greets after confirming availability, all via text messages during a full day of work and time set aside for packing and travel prep- where texting simply is not feizable. Lauren was super fast with her response time and even adjusted her own personal plans in order to accommodate our booking request. She would be the only reason I would ever consider utilizing Rover again in the future. My rottweiler and pitbull always looked happy and comfortable when we checked in or received photos, and Lauren was overly accommodating with keeping us in the loop with how our fur babies were doing each day. My dogs both loved the sound healing that Lauren integrates into her visits, and both were happy and excited to see us when we got back, but also a bit teary-eyed upon watching Lauren depart at the end of her visit. Highly recommend to anyone who are in need of specialized, attentive care for their fur babies, whether it be for a day, an overnight, or a whole week like we had booked for. Thanks again so much Lauren! :)

In caring for pets at my home or a client’s home, I am able to stay for overnight care, drop-ins and more based on your specific needs and requirements! I am great with sitting in client’s homes and spending time with their pets keeping them busy throughout the day with walks and playing and relaxing into the evening for bed time ensuring they’ve taken all their proper medications as needed as well as food, water and any special treats! I am also great with handling household needs such as housekeeping including trash, recycle, mail, packages and plant care. With my drop-in visits, in-home sittings and overnight stays your pets will receive lots of love, care, attention and cuddles and snuggles! I will follow their usual routine and be sure that they are nourished and feel safe! I love sending lots of pictures and updates during all of my visits, stays and drop-ins! Let’s set up a meet and greet and discuss your pet’s specific needs and routines!

Please let me know if there are any special needs or requirements that your dog or cat may have including any medications they must take and the frequency, things that he/she may love and dislike, behaviors, favorite toys and treats and what is the general routine that you have your fur baby follow on a day to day basis!

A typical day

I love going on long outdoor nature walks and adventures with the dogs that I care for. I love exploring different nature trails and long walks around neighborhoods. I like naps and playtime with toys, lots of petting, cuddles and giving treats as well. I like to play games of fetch and chase so that they can get some exercise, running and fun in for those that are able to.
