Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I don’t work a typical 9–5 due to my health, so I have a lot of flexibility in my day-to-day schedule. It actually works perfectly as I can plan my days around the pets I’m caring for, whether that’s walks, feeding times, play, or just being there to keep them company. I’m at home a lot, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and can have a consistent, calm environment. My partner Kamila is also around to help, so between us we can be really flexible and make sure your pet’s needs are fully met throughout the day and week

Safety, trust & environment

I always try to make things feel as normal and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’m really happy to follow your usual routine, house rules, and anything specific your pet needs so they feel comfortable and settled. I’m very mindful about safety — keeping a close eye on behaviour, making sure doors/gates are secure, and sticking to any instructions you leave. I’ve also done a dog first aid course, which gives that extra bit of reassurance.

Information Lauren M. would like to know about your pet

I have a Google doc that can be completed once booking to go over any of the extra questions and to make sure I am fully up to date with your pet.

A typical day

A Typical Day with me☺️ Morning Routine: I begin the day early to ensure your pets get the attention they need right from the start. Breakfast is served according to their usual schedule, followed by a refreshing morning walk to stretch their legs and stimulate their senses. Check-Ins & Play: After the walk, I spend time engaging your pets with play sessions, whether it’s fetching their favourite toy, playing tug-of-war, or interactive games to keep their minds sharp. Afternoon: If your pets require an afternoon feeding, I ensure they get it on time. Exercise & Socialisation: I often take dogs for another walk or playtime in the garden or local park. For cats, I provide stimulating activities and cuddles to keep them happy. Photo Updates: all day! As long as you want more?, I will send you lots of photos and updates so you can see how much fun your pets are having and know they are well cared for: Quiet Time & Companionship: The afternoon might include some downtime, perfect for older pets or those that enjoy a nap. I’m always nearby, providing a comforting presence. Routine Maintenance: Whether it’s brushing, administering medication, or reinforcing training routines, I ensure all your pets’ needs are met. Dinner Time: Evening meals are given according to your pets' regular schedule, followed by another walk for dogs to help them wind down. Evening Play & Relaxation: I engage in another round of play or simply relax with your pets, giving them the love and attention they crave. Bedtime Prep: Before bedtime, I make sure your pets are comfortable and settled in for the night. For house sits, I maintain their usual bedtime routine to ensure they feel secure. Final Check: I perform a final check to make sure everything is in order and your pets are safe and comfortable for the night. This structured yet flexible routine ensures your pets receive the highest level of care and attention throughout the day, keeping them happy, healthy, and loved.

Pet care experience

Hey! I’m Loz 😊 Alongside me is my partner Kam, so there’s usually two of us around for extra attention, company, and cuddles. I’ve done a dog first aid course which gives a bit of extra peace of mind, especially if your dog needs that added care. We’re both really patient and pretty good at reading dogs and what they need, whether that’s space, play, or just someone to chill with. I’ve got a soft spot for giant breeds (absolutely love them 😅) & I have a Bernese mountain dog named Lorelai, but honestly I’m just as happy with the little ones too, every dog has their own personality and I love getting to know them. We’re very relaxed and happy to stick to your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. And I know how important updates are, so I’ll always send pics/messages so you know they’re happy and settled. I may bring my camera and do a proper photoshoot if we have the time! Feel free to drop me a message if you want to chat or ask anything! 🐾 - have been on a break since Aug 2024 due to illness, restarting gently April 2026 -

I honestly couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Looking after a Rottweiler isn't for everyone, but it was clear from the start that they were completely comfortable and confident handling a larger, powerful breed. They clearly know how to read dogs, respect their boundaries, and make them feel comfortable and secure. My dog settled with them so well and I came home to a very happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for boy! Nothing was too much trouble for them, they were happy to accommodate whatever they could and were so respectful of my home and routine with Ronnie! It's such a relief finding someone who genuinely understands dogs rather than just watching them, they kept me updated throughout with amazing pictures and I had complete peace of mind while I was away and wouldn't hesitate to leave my Ronnie with them again. Highly recommend to anyone, especially owners of larger breeds! Will never go to anyone else!

Lauren stayed the night at my house to look after our kitten, and was absolutely fantastic. She went above and beyond in every category, even looking after her and cleaning up her upset tummy, far more than we ever expected. House was left in the same state as we left it and she even fed my fish, will definitely have Lauren back when we next go away. Thank you so much!
