Love Is A Four-Legged Word!

Pet care experience

Your furry friend has found their perfect match! A trained nurse by profession, now owning my own business, I am self motivated and hard working! I grew up with dogs, cats and more my whole life, then learned to care for them and had my own pets as time went on. I've always been a self driven personality who works well with minimal direction/instruction, but can still take direction when need be. I also currently volunteer at Young-Williams Animal Center several days a week, in addition to running my own business since August 2016. Before starting my business, I worked full time as a nurse for 5 years, so I have medical experience/training as well, and I will be sure your furry friend is always taken care of!

Lauren is a super-friendly, professional young lady... and she LOVES dogs (and all animals). She is experienced as a volunteer dog-walker and "dog petter/lover" at Young Williams Shelter, so it's nice knowing she would do this even if she didn't get paid for it! ;) Lauren has cared for and walked my dogs for a very long time, and they all love her. One of mine (Fernando the Shih Tzu) is very "cranky", and she does so good with him -- he actually loves her (which is strange, because he doesn't like many people). She is also good with my cat, and the kitty loves her attention. I would say that Lauren "has a way with animals". She is patient and really knows how to care for them, and I think they sense that. I also helps that she's a nurse, so if they ever need something "medical", I feel like she's prepared for that. She is also honest and reliable. I totally trust her in my house when I am not there. I would definitely recommend Lauren for pet-care, dog walking, etc.

Information Lauren Q. would like to know about your pet

--Does your dog get along with other dogs or animals? Are they okay on leash, but not roaming free? Or vice versa, where they might be okay running around off leash/in a dog park, but aggressive on a leash? --Does you dog get along with all ages and people? Do they like/dislike children/small children? Are they uneasy or more comfortable around males or females? --Do they have a specific feeding, potty, playtime, etc. schedule? --Are they house trained and will only use the bathroom outside? Or will they use a pee pad only? Or both? --Do you let them on furniture, like beds, sofas, chairs, etc.? --Are they allowed to have treats or special goodies? Are they on any special diet?

A typical day

I am very familiar with the Knoxville and surrounding area(s), so any nearby or favorite dog park, walking/hiking trails, etc. that your dog may already be familiar with are a great option! If you are open to any places you've never been to, I am happy to research the best places nearby to go! Some of my favorite places include Tommy Schumpert Park, Ijams Nature Center, Volunteer Landing/Downtown Greenways, the Petsafe Downtown Dog Park, and more! I am a very fit and active person, so am able to jog/run if desired, or a slow walk is perfect as well!
