Animal loving college student

Pet care experience

Hi there I'm Lauren, I've taken care of all sorts of animals since a very young age. I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, tortoises, guinea pigs, and furry friends. If you are a local you may have seen me walking my brown standard poodle at Butterfly Beach. I also have experience with temperamental rescue dogs, as one of our rescues needed a little extra TLC. I'd love to take care of any pets, especially dogs, so please reach out for any animal care needs.

Lauren has been taking care of animals her whole life! She has walked her neighbor's dogs since elementary school and taken car of countless other animals like chickens and rodents. Her love and compassion towards animals as well as her kind and professional spirit make her the perfect person to entrust with your beloved pet.

Lauren is a wonderful pet sitter. We asked her to take care of our energetic puppy Jupiter for a little over a week when we were traveling. She did such a great job and Jupiter came back happy and healthy. Lauren kept me posted on Jupiters wellbeing throughout our trip with pictures of her on hikes and walks, enjoying the beach and other fun pictures of her relaxing after a day full of activity. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter and I am so glad to have found someone who loves Jupiter as much as I do.

Safety, trust & environment

I can drive your dog to their preferred dog walking location. I'm comfortable walking dogs on or off leash depending on your preference. I love hiking our local front country as well as through town.

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

The main thing I like to be aware of is if the dog is reactive around other animals or people. I also would like to know their energy level and how long a typical walk is for them.

A typical day

I like to walk on Butterfly Beach or Mirimar. There is a forested walking area near Casa Dorinda that my dogs both really enjoy, and every once in a while I'll walk dogs to George where they can pick out a dog treat.
