Highlights
Pet care experience
Responsible Paw-fessional & Big ❤️!
My lifelong journey with animals began early on where I was raised on a farm and active in 4-H. Whether you have a spunky puppy/kitty or a gentle senior needing extra patience, I provide a calm, structured environment tailored to their unique personality. I specialize in providing a low stress experience. From senior pups needing a slow pace to high-energy dogs looking for a walk, your fur babies will be treated like members of my own family.

Safety, trust & environment
For Drop-In Visits (Cats & Dogs): For home visits, my priority is maintaining your pet’s existing routine to minimize anxiety. For Dogs: I focus on a productive potty break, fresh water, and a 'sniffari' (a mental-stimulation walk) or indoor play. For Cats: I focus on their specific social needs—whether they want active play with a wand or just a calm presence nearby while I refresh their food and litter. I always perform a home security check before leaving (ensuring doors are locked and water bowls are full) and leave a detailed 'petdate' on how they behaved and what we did. Dog Walking: Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and the weather. I practice 'defensive walking,' meaning I am always scanning for other off-leash dogs or distractions to keep your pup safe. I also pay close attention to Shreveport’s heat; I check pavement temperatures and ensure we stay hydrated and shaded.
Ratings and reviews
Lauren was excellent! I really appreciated the meet & greet we had before Bean’s visit, she put my mind at ease and I truly felt I could trust her with my baby. She sent frequent updates and pics while he was there which I loved. Bean had a great time and will definitely be back!
Lauren was wonderful to our babies. Our initial meet and greet went really well. She asked questions I wouldn’t have even thought to consider, like what to do if it’s raining. The babies looked super content and comfortable in all of the photos. She even handled our escape artist’s shenanigans like a pro. The peace of mind we had knowing they were well cared for was worth every penny. 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We are so grateful for Lauren daycare service! We had just adopted our puppy and were nervous about how he’d feel after his first shots. Lauren stepped in and treated him like her own while we used the time to prepare our home for his arrival. She sent tons of adorable photos throughout the day and was so diligent with his potty breaks and treats. It was such a relief knowing he was in capable, caring hands while we got the house ready. Our fur baby loved her, and we did too!
Leave your pets with someone else than yourself leaves to unpleasant thoughts, I am glad to find a trustful person with Lauren. She took very good care of my cat Bonnie, was not rushing and did send me pics to update of my cat's good care. Lauren has a hand for pets, that for sure. I was surprised that my Bonnie, who usually doesn't trust anybody unknown, directly went near Lauren. I for sure know that Lauren takes pet sitting serious and she does it great.
Lauren is an amazing dog sitter and caregiver! She is one of the few people I trust to care for my babies. She takes care of them just like her own and you can tell she truly loves dogs and her job to care for them. She has a spacious yard for play and always takes them for daily walks during their stay. I highly recommend her services!

Schedule
I am self employed with a flexible schedule so I am usually available to spend time with your fur babies. I'm very responsible, punctual and love to communicate with pet owners with updates and photos!
