Experienced shelter volunteer
Pet care experience
I have been offering pet care services in the Boston area since 2018! I am also an onsite volunteer and foster mom for two local animal shelters and a nonprofit farm - so I have experience with animals of all different species, backgrounds, medical and behavioral needs. I am gentle and soft-spoken, so animals generally find me very calming. I have extensive experience as a volunteer foster home for dogs and rabbits, but have also cared for cats, guinea pigs, rats, turtles, fish, chickens, horses, goats, exotic birds - you name it!
Reviews
Lauren is a wonderful person to bring into your home and care for your pet. She is attentive, compassionate and fun for our sweet Sunny. We highly recommend Lauren and look forward to her next visit!
I asked Lauren to take care of my two dogs while I and my family were away for a week. She is a warm and nurturing person, so I was sure my dogs would be in good hands. She fed them, walked them and gave them their medications as I asked, and she ll be the one I ll call when I need a dog sitter again.

Safety, trust & environment
I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, safe home environment for your pet and the great value in pet-proofing every room in the house :)
Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet
If possible, I like to setup a Meet & Greet with all new clients to get to know you and introduce myself to your pet ahead of time, so they are as comfortable as possible with me when you are away.
A typical day
Activities would depend heavily on your pet’s species/breed, temperament, behavioral/medical needs, age, etc. I know that species-appropriate enrichment activities are so important for your pet’s wellbeing!
