Passionate & Responsible Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I love all animals; whether they are my pets or not, they are important to me! Their happiness and well-being are my number one priority. I don't care about pet hair on my clothes, mud on shoes, or a poop bag in hand. I am a very respectful and responsible individual who will take excellent care of your animals and be mindful of your property. I will be a guest in your home but I will treat your dogs like family. Thank you for your consideration!

Wish we could give TEN stars -- Lauren is wonderful!! Our regular caregiver recently graduated college and has moved on, and we were very concerned about finding a new caregiver for our lab mix. He is almost 15 years old and has some special needs now around mobility, medications and food prep. It seemed like a lot to ask of a new person, and we just had a lot of angst around how it would work to be gone for a week and what seemed like hundreds of details that had to be dealt with. We had an interview with Lauren before signing up, and within 10 minutes I knew we'd found the perfect person. Lauren is the most wonderful mix of EXTREME common sense, great at seeing the big picture and asking pertinent questions I hadn't even thought of to discuss, and she is fabulous with animals. She's a natural and Sherman loved her from the first moment. We felt 100% comfortable entrusting Lauren with the care of our beloved dog (as well as the entire house, for that matter!) and everything went without a hitch. We can't recommend Lauren highly enough!! We're so grateful for all of her help and hope to see her again soon.

Lauren loves animals, all animals - but is especially wonderful with dogs! I've seen her with her own dogs as well as mine. My dogs are a little skittish but never with Lauren! They get so excited when they see her and I would leave them in her care anytime! You would be very lucky to have Lauren as your dog sitter!

I've known Lauren since she was born and she is like a daughter to my wife and I. She is patient and loving in her relationships both with people and animals. Her treatment of all the animals she has had in her life has been filled with love and kindness.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not board pets in my own home. I will be respectful of your home and property while caring for your pets. I will ensure they are safe and secure.

Information Lauren H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what temperament your pet normally has and if there are any behaviors to keep an eye on. For example: counter serfing, on leash reactivity, ball aggression, timidness, and such like that. Also, I would like to know how your pets typically act throughout the day, are they usually super energized or more mellow. I want to know this information so I can more easily recognize abnormal behavior in case of emergency.

A typical day

The activities will depend on each individual pet. I am happy to take your dog for a hike, a walk out on the beach, or just a stroll through the neighborhood. I can throw the ball around and play some tug-a-war if they are up for it. I'm also happy to just relax at home with them.
