Pet care experience

Quality time with your pet!

I grew up with cats and dogs all my life and can’t remember a time when we didn’t have pets in our family. My years in caring for animals has taught me that pets tend to respond to reward and not punishment, and that is the overall philosophy I use in pet care. When getting to know your dog or cat, I like to first understand their temperament and then get on their level and let them approach me to earn their trust. I am also a professional ballroom dance instructor and freelance photographer. My availability can vary from week to week but I’m usually available weekdays between 11:00am-2:00pm. Occasionally I have more availability so always feel free to reach out if you any scheduling questions! I am reliable, easy going and very active, so going on walks is enjoyable not only for your dog, but also for me! I am excellent at time management and take my commitments very seriously. I completely understand that many people need to schedule their pet care with forethought and preparation, and I am always very respectful of that. Looking forward to meeting your pet!

Lauren did great with Bellamy! At our meet and greet she asked really good questions that I hadn’t even thought to share like what to do if he doesn’t poop or if it’s raining would I like her to let him out to potty then play with him inside. I’d never thought about those things before but it really showed she knows what she’s doing and cares about the wellbeing of the animals she walks. Also as a bonus she takes REALLY good pictures! So much so I’ve made some my phone backgrounds.
