Safety, trust & environment

I’m very respectful of my client’s home as well as how their pet adapts to me in their space. It’s important for your pet to get to know me and vice versa. I always take the time to build report and trust for both of our sakes.

Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any quirks, likes and dislikes about your pet so I can understand them better. If they have any special needs or preferences, I’m happy to accommodate. My cat likes to be sung to, so there’s nothing too goofy you can ask of me!

A typical day

I enjoy getting to know an animals personality, and what games and toys they enjoy. I’m happy to take your pets on walks around the block or a trail or even let them roam free and a dog park. My highest priority is that they feel safe, trust me and enjoy themselves. I want you to come back to a clean home and hope to leave it better than when I came. For house sits, I like to leave the house clean by washing my sheets and dishes, as well as sweeping, bringing in mail, taking out trash and watering plants. Happy to do any extra tasks that you need. For multiple day drop ins, I make sure to sweep and clean the pets food area as well.

Pet care experience

I make friends with all the animals! You name it, when I encounter any animal, I’m all about creating a relationship. Whether it’s a hello to a deer on the trail, or training a friend’s new puppy, I absolutely love to make a connection with our furry friends. I saved my sweet baby cat, Maya from the street when she was 7 weeks old and nursed her back to health. Ever since then, she’s been the princess of the house. Having the chance to connect with dogs through my friends and this app is great since we don’t have one at this time. I love to be a part of getting them outside to get exercise and mental stimulation. It’s so important. I enjoy charming shy kitties and getting hesitant ones to play. Cuddles with senior pups are the best and making sure they get all the special care they deserve makes me so happy. I’m excited to meet new pets and get to know their unique personalities!

Lauren was so wonderful - super sweet, accommodating, responsible, and easy to communicate with. My dog loved her, and she sent lots of cute pictures/kept me updated throughout the weekend. 🩵

Lauren was so attentive and caring for our 3 pups while we were gone for the weekend! She sent daily updates and pictures and kept us in the loop about any and everything. We would absolutely book her again!!

Lauren took great care of our girl, Josie, while we were out of town! She stayed at our house with Jo and was there with her most of the time, took her on nice long walks every day, and sent frequent updates. She was diligent in making sure she understood all of Josie’s routine and habits and her daily medication schedule. She had a run in with a not so nice dog on one of their walks too and by the sounds of it handled it like a pro! Josie was happy and her usual self when we got home to her. We’ll definitely be using Lauren again!
