Loyal, Patient, and Kind

Pet care experience

I have taken care of animals since I was 7 years old and professionally since I was 18 years old. I love ALL animals. I have experience with the following animals: Bearded Dragons, Cats, Dogs, Ferrets, Rabbits, Fish, Hamsters, and Birds. I know how to administer shots and give medications orally to Cats, Dogs, and Ferrets. I believe that pets aren't pets - they are family. I live in a house with my husband, 4 month old baby, and 2 kitties. I work a 9-5 full time job but can take breaks to help with walks, potty breaks, and feedings. I promise to give all of the love and attention your animal needs. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please reach out to me. Thank you!

Lauren is supremely reliable, and my cat absolutely loves her! She makes sure to give him plenty of love and affection, and ensures that his box is clean and his bowls are full. She also makes it a point to water the plants, bring in the mail and rotate lights throughout the house to give the appearance that someone is home. Thanks to Lauren I know I can travel with the peace of mind knowing that my cat, plants and home are in excellent hands. I'd highly recommend her to anyone for their pet sitting needs!

Lauren has been taking care of my cats for years. She is always attentive of their needs, feeding on the directed schedule and taking care of special needs like medication delivery. Could not recommend Lauren more highly as a pet sitter!
