A Flexible Sitter You Can Trust

Hi, I’m Lauren! I'm a responsible, reliable, and clean, animal lover, available on short notice. It is my priority to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you're away and keep them on their regular schedule. I know to most pet owners, dogs and cats are like family, and I treat them as such. I have been a pet sitter for awhile! I worked at the Pet Staff, one of the biggest pet sitting companies in LA, followed by a 1 woman owned company, who trained me one on one. I have cared for many types of dogs, including blind dogs, deaf dogs, a three-legged dog, dogs that need assistance going down steps, elderly dogs, dogs that need special medical attention, dogs that need special cooked meals, dogs with behavioral issues and quirks, dogs that need frequent potty breaks- you name it I've most likely done it. I've watched teacup breeds, to great danes, and everything in between. Animals have always been apart of my life. Growing up with dogs, rabbits, fish, guinea pigs, and birds, has taught me patience as well as how to care for living things. No matter what animals I may watch, I make sure to give them plenty of attention, comfort, and love. My family bred King Charles Cavaliers, so I have experience with new born puppies, as well as grown dogs. I am experienced with all types of dogs, all different shapes and sizes. New to Rover?

Safety, trust & environment

Just a few standard care practices of mine: - The water bowl will always be full, with filtered water - I never feed dogs table food - I typically send an update after the first night, and then usually a follow up a few days later. I can send as many or as few updates as you may like - I was trained to avoid other dogs on walks, so I typically abide by that rule - I can accommodate pets who frequently need to be let out or with little mobility

Lauren was fabulous. She was available to meet beforehand and had such a positive attitude. She did such a great job with the animals, sent pictures and updates, and left our place the cleanest it's ever been.

Lauren not only took great care of our animals but went above and beyond when we had an emergency leak during a storm. I can’t recommend her enough!!

Lauren is amazing. She took great care of my dog Pepper while I was out of the country for a week. She checked in every day with updates and sent me pictures which I loved and really helped me feel at ease. Pepper was happy and content when I got home. I also came home to a spotless apartment - honestly I think it was cleaner than when I left. Lauren is responsible, communicative and kindhearted, will absolutely have her help out again!

Lauren dog/house-sat for me for a week while I was out of the country, and she did a fantastic job! My dog was extremely well-cared for and the daily updates/pictures gave me so much peace of mind! She left my apartment in excellent condition, even washing the sheets/towels that she used (without me asking her to do so). I would absolutely recommend her and plan to book with her again in the future!

We had Lauren over to watch our girl for the weekend- she was amazing! Stayed over and kept our pup company, left the house tidy, and sent updates throughout! Would absolutely recommend and will be using her again in the future ☺️

I would get the basics... breed, size, allergies, friendly level (if they get along with people and other dogs) Also, the location of their vet and an emergency contact. I love all breeds : )
