Pet care experience

Active Med Student/Dog Mom

I am a former classical pianist, but switched careers and am now a medical student! I love what I do, but I also make time for my two dogs, Orla and Astrid. I walk/run with them at least 3 times a day, and love training them to do new tricks. My friends always say they are so well behaved 😌 I take care of other dogs with the same care that I have for my girls and would be happy to walk, run, or just hang out with your pup!

Lauren was a pleasure to work with and took very good care of my cat Howie. I definitely recommend Lauren and would not hesitate asking her again to pet sit for me.

Fantastic! Our pups were so happy and calm and clearly well cared for. Lauren is a lovely human and her dogs are so sweet too!

Lauren was excellent! She did drop-in visits for my cat for a week. She is reliable, communicative, and was very sweet to my cat. I would definitely recommend her.

Lauren was absolutely amazing with my puppy. First time I have ever left him with someone besides myself and I had absolutely no worries. She was so great will be booking with her again!

Schedule

I'm currently in med school so my schedule is different by the month, but usually a good amount of flexibility and short hours - after which I come home, walk the dogs, then study. I'd be more than happy to walk them along with my girls if they are friendly with other dogs!

Safety, trust & environment

I am cautious with sharing toys, food, water. My dogs have no issues but I separate everything anyway to be safe. My girls are so important to me, so I know how important it is to other pet owners to keep their babies safe! I have no toxic plants, and am well versed on toxic foods

Pets

Orla, Astrid and I hike, do puzzles, run, go on several mile long walks a day, drink lots of water, and then chill out at the end of the day usually
