Lauren is amazing!!! She kept in touch with me the entire time she was with my dogs. My dogs were happy when we got home and I can tell when they have been taken care of. They clearly really like Lauren ! My house was super clean and she even stripped the bed she slept in. We already booked her for our upcoming trip.

I cannot recommend this sitter based on our experience. Before the booking, we provided detailed written instructions about our dogs, including that Boots is a puppy who requires supervision because she is still in her chewing stage. We also left plenty of toys, bones, treats, a kennel, and cleaning supplies, and made ourselves available if any questions or concerns came up. Instead, shortly after our trip began, we received a message saying the sitter had gone back to sleep because she hadn’t gotten enough rest the night before. During that time, Boots was left unsupervised long enough to chew our wall. Rather than taking responsibility for the situation or finding a way to continue providing the service she agreed to, she asked us to make alternate arrangements because she had an exam on Monday and needed to be well rested. When someone accepts an in-home pet sitting booking, they are accepting the responsibility of supervising the pets and fulfilling the commitment for the agreed-upon dates. Personal obligations, including exams, should have been considered before accepting the booking—not after we had already left town and were relying on her. The most disappointing part was being put in the position of scrambling to find replacement care while we were away. We trusted this sitter with our home and our dogs, and instead we were left dealing with property damage and an incomplete booking. Reliability is one of the most important qualities in a pet sitter, and unfortunately, this experience showed a lack of reliability, accountability, and professionalism. We understand that unexpected situations can happen, but based on our experience, we would not book with this sitter again.
