Pet care experience

I treat your dogs as my own, lots of cuddles!

I have no pets of my own in the house at the moment. I miss having dogs around a lot, I used to have two pugs. Not able to have the full time commitment these days, so having visiting pets is lovely for me. I treat dogs in my house as my own, they can sleep on or in my bed, snuggle on the sofa and get plenty of cuddles. I’m happy to follow your own house rules. Thornes park and Pugneys are on my doorstep, so lots of lovely walks nearby. Happy to sit for young pups and up to old seniors, and I’ll send daily pics of what we are up to if you require. I usually have only one or two dogs maximum, and if they are from different families I can keep separate if required, but will always encourage making friends.

Lauren was amazing! Louis settled in very well and made himself very much at home. Lauren provided regular updates and pictures, and you could see that Louis was happy and being well looked after. Usually he takes a few days to settle down when he comes home but we didn't have that at all this time. Very happy to recommend Lauren.

Willow and Connie really enjoyed their stay with Lauren. This was the first time they had been left with anybody outside of our immediate family and Lauren put our minds at ease with regular photos and updates whilst we was away. I would not hesitate in highly recommending Lauren to anyone in need of a sitter, she was outstanding. Thank you!

Another great dog sit from Lauren. Being able to leave our 2 dachshunds (one of which can be a difficult character!) with Lauren has been life-changing! They are clearly happy to stay with her and we can relax, knowing that they are being well cared for.

Schedule

Im self employed and work part time, I can work my diary around pet care. I don’t work weekends. If I need to go into work it can be for a maximum of two hours at a time, but I can also keep my diary clear when pet sitting. My adult son also lives with me most of the time.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced partially lawned garden, and an access all areas in the house policy…I much prefer a dog in the room with me, and sofas and beds are not off limits.

A typical day

I’m happy to walk several times a day…lots of options nearby for me, Thornes Park, Pugneys are a short walk from my house, or longer hikes are good too with my friend and her dog Lucy. I like playing hide and seek and doing zoomies round the house, and of course good old ball throwing.
