Safety, trust & environment

I have two pet rabbits and take their care very seriously. I follow House Rabbit Society guidelines and am always careful to consult their recommendations whenever I have a question or concern. I am familiar with positive reinforcement training.

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you have any training procedures or preferences ahead of time, I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and the importance of maintaining a routine. But I'm also happy to spoil them!

A typical day

I live near Mt Tabor Park and love taking pets for a walk around the neighborhoods, but am also cognizant of the need to stay away from people for pets with behavioral issues.

Pet care experience

Mother of an adorable rabbit with experience caring for dogs, cats, rats, snakes, birds, and mice. Because Rover doesn’t allow for travel time or other daily commitments all arrival times will be approximate within a window of 2 hours. So if you book at 2pm I will arrive between 1:00 and 3:00.

Lauren was a fantastic cater giver for our two cats. She sent daily updates and was very communicative. We knew our kitties were well taken care of while we were away.

Lauren has walked my dogs for a week and done a great job. She has followed through with all the directions (especially all of the safety concerns- key back where it’s supposed to go and the gate latched on the fence). My dogs seemed very happy with Lauren, and she is very good about communicating.

Punctual and very communicative! Made sure to follow all my instructions and worked hard to make sure Echo was well taken care of on the visit. Looking forward to working with Lauren again.

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.
