Pet care experience

Experienced dog lover and owner

Hi! My name is Lauren, and I’ve owned dogs all of my life. I currently have a standard poodle named Sophie. We are pretty active in dog sports, including agility and lure coursing. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs — my last dog lived to be almost 16 years old — and all ages in between. I also love caring for cats! I love meeting your pets and getting to know their unique personalities. My goal is to make my visits the highlight of your pet's day and offer you peace of mind while you're away.

Lauren is a wonderful sitter for my cat. Her updates are always so sweet and include great pictures so I know my kitty is getting great care.

Lauren was great! She was super easy to work with and flexible, and I really appreciated the quality time she spent with both of my cats while I was away. She also sent me pictures and updates along the way, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy and being well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!

Lauren was wonderful with both of our dogs, including our 4 month old puppy. I couldn’t ask for a more trustworthy person to watch my dogs when I can’t be there.

Lauren is an incredible cat sitter to my boy. This most recent sitting she was an enormous help accommodating super last minute extra visits and medicine instructions after an unexpected vet visit right before our trip. Her care and notes made me feel confident my cat was okay and being well cared for during a time when I was extra worried and feeling guilty to be leaving him. She’s the best!

Schedule

I work full time, but I work from home several days a week. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m also available most weekends and holidays. Mondays and Wednesdays are the days I'm required to be in the office. If your dog is boarding with me, we can discuss a plan and how long they can be alone. For boarding, your dog should be content being alone for at least four hours.

Safety, trust & environment

I want to make your pet happy and comfortable, whether that means dropping in for a visit, going for a walk, or having them come to stay with me. If your dog is visiting me and enjoys playtime, my dog loves other dogs and is always excited to make new friends. They can also be kept separated if your pet is less social.

Pets

A typical day

I want your pet to be fulfilled physically and mentally. Our activities should be enjoyable for them, so please let me know what they like best. Walks, games, visits to Sniffspots, dog parks, training practice — anything is on the table!

Tell me about your pet’s personality: What do they love? How do they behave on walks? What are their favorite games to play? Please let me know if your pet has any separation anxiety and how long they can comfortably be left alone, if at all. I'll also want to know if your pet has any food allergies, is taking medication, or has any issues with resource guarding. Please let me know if your dog likes other dogs and would enjoy interacting with my poodle.
