Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH, Active, and flexible!
Hi! My name is Lauren, and I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals, and over the years I’ve become the designated pet sitter for many of my friends whenever they travel or need an extra hand. When I care for your pet, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or simply keeping each other company, I will give your pet the same attention and affection that I would give my own. I am comfortable, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have a cat of my own named peach, who is very particular about how she likes things (cat owners understand!) because of her, I’ve learned that every pet is unique and has their own routines, preferences, and needs. I am happy to learn what makes your pet happiest, so please don’t hesitate to share any special instructions, routines, quirks, or request. The more I know the better I can care for them! I also understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, and I will always provide reliable communication, updates, and photos during our time together. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Ratings and reviews
Lauren was great with walking my 11 year old heeler/pointer mix. My dog gets excited every time Lauren arrives, which says more than any review could. She’s reliable, professional, communicative, and always sends updates and photos after walks. I've noticed a huge difference in my dog's happiness and energy levels since we started working with her. It's such a relief knowing my pet is in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and outstanding dog walker!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lauren did a great job walking both of my dogs. She handled my rambunctious Golden Retriever and my Pitbull mix on separate walks and was great with each of them. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and my dogs came back happy and tired. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker. 🐾

Schedule
I work from home during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I am generally available for drop in visits and dog walks throughout the day Monday through Friday. For bookings that require more than an hour of care, I asked that they’d be scheduled after 4 PM on weekdays. My weekends are much more open, and I am available for dog walks and drop in visits at any time of the day for any length of time. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so feel free to reach out with any questions about availability!
