About Lauren J.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
In my home, I provide a safe and secure environment for pets, with a fully enclosed garden where they can play and explore under supervision. I have an 8 year old golden retriever who makes a great companion and provides an opportunity for additional socialisation and playtime. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I prioritise their comfort and security. I adhere closely to the pet owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, and routine, maintaining a familiar environment to minimise stress. In both settings, I prioritise trust-building through gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and clear communication. I strive to create a nurturing atmosphere where pets feel relaxed and at ease, ensuring their well-being and happiness throughout their stay.
Information Lauren J. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. I am always happy to arrange a call or visit ahead of time to discuss how best I can look after your pet.
A typical day
A typical day with me starts by checking in on all the animals to ensure their well-being before feeding. Once everyone's settled, it's time for affectionate play and bonding. After breakfast, we head out for a walk, making sure to wait an hour after eating to prevent bloat. We love exploring the beach, woodland trails, and local parks, providing plenty of mental stimulation and socialization opportunities along the way. Back home, we enjoy some downtime for relaxation and cuddles, even healthy, young adult dogs 16-18 hours of sleep a day! In the evening, we take another walk to burn off any excess energy before dinner and bedtime cuddles. Each day is filled with love, adventure, and quality time spent with our furry friends, ensuring they're happy, healthy, and enriched.

Pet care experience
I have grown up around dogs and cats, and as an adult, I have raised my own pets, giving me a lifelong love and understanding of animals. My passion for pet care has led me to pursue professional qualifications, including a certification in pet first aid and a diploma in pet sitting and dog walking. These credentials ensure that I am equipped to handle any situation that may arise, providing peace of mind for pet owners. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to personalised and compassionate care. I tailor my services to meet the specific needs of each pet, whether they require gentle walks, energetic playtime, or special attention due to age or health conditions. I have experience in caring for senior dogs, ensuring they receive the gentle exercise and extra care they need, as well as in puppy care, providing training, socialisation, and the structure young dogs require. Additionally, my services are not just about basic care; they are about creating positive, enriching experiences for your pets. I am dedicated to ensuring that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and happy, making their time away from their owners as enjoyable as possible.

Reviews

This was the 2nd time we have used Lauren to look after our bengal cat. Lauren was very professional and kept us fully informed with photos and updates. She changed her litter regularly and cleaned up the odd accident and made a fuss of her. We would highly recommend Lauren and will continue to use her whenever we go away.


My cats obviously loved Lauren. I loved the daily pics and updates. Thank you Lauren

Highly recommend Lauren! It was my first time leaving my kitten Echo. She is blind so this made it even harder, but Lauren was so patient with her as she is extremely nervous around new people, she was kind and caring towards Echo, and completely won her over. She updated us every time, sent over lots of photos. And definitely made going away much easier. Thankyou you again Lauren!


Thank you Lauren, it was our first time using a cat sitter and our experience was excellent. Murray and Malou were well looked after, we received daily updates and the whole process was seamless. We would highly recommend Lauren and happily use once again. Thank you again!
