I am currently a law student at IU, and my class schedule changes by semester. Generally, I am in class 6 hours a day Monday through Wednesday, and maybe 2-3 hours on Thursdays and Fridays. I typically prefer to study at home, so outside of these hours I am available for pet care!

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow all instructions provided to me regarding pet care and schedules. I am happy to go above and beyond for my fur-clients, and can provide baths, walks, feeding, medication/elder care, clean up, and anything else they may require. When providing house-sitting services I can also clean, maintain any house-related tasks (fill bird feeders, maintain garden/lawn, check the mail, etc.), handle emergencies (leaks, floods, power-outages, etc.) and grocery shop for you before you return for a small extra fee that we can negotiate to fit your budget! 😁

Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet

I ask that you leave info about vets, a trusted friend, and a trusted repairman/apartment maintenance contact info accessible in case of emergencies. Also I like to know if your animal is okay with other animals (if we see other dogs on walks or some such) and if they are a flight risk!

A typical day

Typically my day starts between 6-7 AM, with any drop ins I need to take care of before heading off to class. After class, I do homework and readings, or spend time with friends and family. I also work out a few days a week—I love walking almost as much as the dogs!

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Lauren, and I have been pet sitting professionally on and off since my early teens. I am experienced with big and small dogs, cats and reptiles. I also have experience dealing with special needs and/or elderly fur-babies, from handling/administering medication to additional care measures (special sleeping arrangements, additional potty breaks, separation issues, mess clean-up, etc.). Above all I love all animals and will love on your sweet babies as if they were my own! ❤️ I have some awesome references that would be happy to vouch for my reliability.

Lauren is beyond excellent. She had a handful tonight. Seizure, GI issues and tornado warning, took care of the boys beyond expectations. Welcome to the hall of fame. I hope you can and will take care of the boys next time again. Thank you so much. Troy and Eme

I really appreciated Lauren’s detailed updates and great photos of my cat—I trusted that he was in good hands while I was away!

Lauren was a great sitter. She was very communicative and kept us informed about our pets throughout her stay. She followed all of my instructions and did a great job. I would definitely hire her again!

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.
