Safety, trust & environment

I walk my Australian Shepherd, Nico on a leash almost 100% of the time. He tends to run off if not leashed and chases other animals in sight. I always make sure safety is my top priority when walking/playing outside. When caring for dogs in my clients home I always make sure they are properly handled and safely harnessed while walking around their neighborhood/parks and in contact with other dogs. I also make aware of my surroundings at all times while they are in my care.

Information Lauren P. would like to know about your pet

-What does their normal day routine look like? -Pet's personality and temperament -Any pre-existing medical conditions or allergies? -Is your pet dog or food aggressive? -Any medications that need to be given? -Can your pet be an escape artist while out walking? -Any certain toys or treats they like?

A typical day

I would be happy to take your pup out to exercise/play or take a walk around their neighborhood/park. I also love taking lots of pictures/videos for all my clients to look at, you will never have to worry keeping you updated on how your pet is doing while in my care.

Pet care experience

Ever since I was a little girl, I've had a compassion for animals and they have always been a part of my everyday lifestyle. I am enthusiastic about learning and understanding all different types of animals. They all deserve the very best care and that's what I'm here for! I am a CPS-DW Certified Pet Sitter and Dog Walker and I also attained my Cat and Dog Pet First Aid Certification through American Red Cross. These certifications demonstrate my commitment and expertise to best practices in pet care. I have 9 years of hands-on professional experience in this specialty. Prior to becoming a CPS-DW, I worked at a local pet care service facility for many years caring for various breeds of boarded dogs, cats and exotics (birds, rabbits, ferrets etc.) I've also helped take care of rescue dogs that were in the process of being adoptable. I am passionate and continuously looking for ways to expand my knowledge when it comes to pet care, temperaments, nutrition, handling, exercising and administering medications. Those medicines include numerous topicals, ear meds, eye meds, pills taken orally and injections such as insulin to dogs/cats as needed. I also have experience in overnight services where I stayed in my clients home caring for their pets/home while they were away. I have knowledge on pet behavior and can provide senior care to dogs and cats. I would be happy to offer overnight services to you once I'm familiar to your pup, their daily routines and their homes.

Lauren is the best! This was the first time we had left our fur babies (2 dogs, a guinea pig and 2 ferrets) with anyone other than family and she set all our anxiety at ease. From arranging a meet and greet right up until our last day of vacation, she was prompt in responding to all our messages, sent updates and pics with every visit and when we returned the pets were all healthy, happy and their areas were cleaner than they are when we're home! We will 100% be calling on Lauren again for our next vacation!

Lauren did a fantastic job with our dogs. We were so nervous about leaving them, especially because one is battling cancer and needs meds several times a day. Lauren was able to handle the medications and the personalities of all the pups!! She also sent picture multiple times a day which put us at ease.

Lauren has been caring for our crazy Golden Retriever puppy for the last few months. She has watched her grow up and they have a special bond. Leia goes crazy when Lauren walks in. She is always available when needed and gets back to us super quick. She even messages me to see if we need her, to which we usually do. Leia and I both appreciate her help.
