Pet care experience

I’m a lifelong animal lover with a strong sense of responsibility and care. I currently work full time and serve as an Officer in the Navy Reserves, so reliability, structure, and trust are a big part of who I am. I’ve owned dogs my entire life. They are truly family to me. I love spending time with them, whether that’s relaxing at home or getting their energy out with walks or playtime. I’ve also volunteered with the humane society walking dogs and have experience caring for neighborhood pets. In addition to dog care, I’m very comfortable with cats. I’ve had cats most of my life and currently have two of my own, so I understand their personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just giving them attention on their terms, I’m happy to provide loving, attentive care. Even with a full schedule, I make sure the pets I care for get the time, attention, and affection they deserve. I offer boarding and drop-in visits, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.

Lauren was so patient with our barky Rosie and anxious boy Jaxson. She was early on both visits we requested and made sure they were well taken care of while also sending over pictures and notifying us of everything. We will book with Lauren again without thinking twice!

Lauren is wonderful to work with and communicates well. Shes reliable and very considerate of pets and house hold. This was my first time using Rover, after my father was unexpectedly hospitalized for a procedure. Coordinating from out of state, I was worried about my Fathers house and pets. From my first phone conversation with Lauren, my mind was set at ease. She arrived as planned and pets were fed, watered and boxes cleaned as scheduled. She even took the extra step to move the waste to the dumpster, down the street. Once my father returned home we continued the visits for a few weeks, as he recovered. My Father had only nice things to say about Lauren during her visits. I highly recommend Lauren for any of your pets needs.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
