Recent College Grad

Pet care experience

I am a recent college graduate who has just moved to the area. I am too far away from home to visit my dog and I would love to sit other people's dogs! I have had dogs my whole life and have taken care of several people's dogs, including fostering shelter dogs. My dad is a psychologist and raised me to treat and train (very basic, I'm not a trainer) dogs accordingly. Your baby won't develop any bad habits with me but will be loved on like they were my own. I recently accepted an internship, so during the week I wouldn't be able to let your dog out as frequently. On the weekends, I can let them out as often as necessary. I would prefer to sit at your house (I have two cats), but if the dog is small and/or good with cats then I could make an exception. I do however need to be close enough to my home so I can take care of my cats. My apartment complex has a dog park with plenty of potential pup friends and great smells! I also would like to walk your dog and get better acquainted with the area. Let me know how I can help you!

Thank you for everything Lauren! This was my first experience with a house/petsitter and it could not have been better. She sent me pictures of my very happy 'kids' all weekend long and eased my fears. She took great care of my house and my pets. Loved Lauren, loved Rover.com! I would absolutely use both again!

Lauren is such an energetic dog caregiver! She's cared for family dogs countless times and always ensures they're very comfortable! I'm always so impressed with Lauren's attention to detail when interacting with dogs; she's great at noticing any discomfort, potential health or eating issue, and desire for attention in dogs. Lauren gives full attention to dogs when they want it and she is great at carrying out dog owner's instructions! I fully recommend Lauren as a dog sitter!

Lauren is very compassionate and caring towards all animals. She has watched my dogs numerous times and always took great care of them. In addition, she has 2 wonderful cats and a dog that she cares for so she has plenty of experience!
