Safety, trust & environment
I will carefully read all directions that you provide me. I understand that every pet is individual and unique - as are their needs! I will treat your pet like family, but respect that they are yours and follow all of your wishes.
Information Lauren K. would like to know about your pet
Please do let me know if your pet has any special needs that I must be aware of - no detail is too small and I will keep every one in mind.
A typical day
Pets deserve quality time. While prioritizing safety and wellness above all, I will play with them using their favorite toys, take them on walks (if appropriate), be near their side if they are a cuddler, and more.

Pet care experience
**Returning to Rover 2026. I've taken care of the pets and homes of my friends, family, professors, and employers for nearly a decade. I am punctual, detail-oriented, and in-tune with the feelings of those around me - whether they be a person or a pet. Quick FYI, my nickname is "Kai," so you'll see me called that in some of my testimonials. You can call me either Lauren or Kai. Other pet experience: - Rabbits - Lower-maintenance frogs and reptiles - Lower-maintenance birds - Lower-maintenance fish - Open to other exotics with proper directions

Reviews


Lauren did great with our two cats! They were well cared for, we got timely updates, and Lauren was easy to coordinate with. We’d definitely hire Lauren again!
It’s so obvious that Lauren is a kind and considerate sitter. My cat was well cared for, got lots of lap time and appeared happy when I returned home. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone who needs to leave their pet in good hands while away. Thanks so much, Lauren!

Kai was great with my cat and super easy to work with.

Lauren picked up our request on short notice and we couldn’t be happier that she did. She’s a great communicator and sent excellent updates from her visits. Our cat is a squeaky little extrovert and we could tell he enjoyed her visits. Thanks, Lauren!
