While You’re Away Services

I am a former Special Education Teacher primarily booking house/pet sitting clients. I work minimal hours remotely and enjoy the novelty and companionship that Rover clients offer my lifestyle. This means I have a lot of time and attention to devote to your pet when you cannnot. I live on a lovely property in the country with a large yard and access to miles of wooded trails for long walks. I’m primarily interested in house/pet sitting clients and am open to boarding or pet sitting for a repeat clients I am familiar with. I have experience with large breed and high energy breeds over the years. I do not qualify myself a “trainer”, however, I completed Therapy Dog Selection and Training through the University of Maine and have studied animal behavior for my professional work. I look forward to getting to know you and your pet! I when I am not hanging out with your pets or working, I am an active outdoorswoman, gardener, and yoga instructor.

Lauren took great care of our beloved Greta for 2 weeks. She sent updates and photos and was a great communicator. We'll certainly use her again, highly recommend!

Lauren was an absolute pleasure. She gave my sweet girl lots of loving, adventures and snuggles. She left the house in great condition. I highly recommend her for all your pet needs!

Felt very comfortable, leaving my dog with Lauren. She sent pictures of the walks and took very good care of my dog. I will use her again if she’s available
