Loving care for your canine!

Pet care experience

I am a pet-sitter with eight years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including but not limited to: dogs of all sizes, cats, small rodents, horses, and various farm animals. I have an A.S. in Equestrian Science, which has given me a great number of skills related to horse-care, as well as general animal husbandry. I have a great deal of experience as an over-night pet-care provider, dog-walker, and farm-sitter. The majority of my clients have continued to utilize my services for several years; I can provide references upon request. I have a deep love for animals and treat all of my clients with great love and care. I have an AS in Equestrian Science, giving me skills in animal first-aid and general care and management I have cared for, as well as owned, a variety of animals from small rodents to large farm animals Why I love dog sitting I have owned dogs for my entire life, and began petsitting about eight years ago. I have cared for dogs ranging from a Rat Terrier, to Pit Bulls, to Great Danes and have had a wonderful experience with every dog that I have cared for. My experience administering medication I have experience giving injections to horses, as well as subcutaneous injections to dogs. I am comfortable administering oral medications as well.

Our furry kids love Lauren! Every time they see her they can barely contain themselves! Lauren has been walking our dogs several times a week for the past year and cares for them while we are away. She always takes incredible care of them and always leaves a nice note at the end of her stay giving us information about the dogs' time while we were away. We and our dogs love Lauren and always feel safe leaving our dogs with her

Lauren has been our family's dog and cat caretaker for several years (about 3 as of 2014). Our pets are always incredibly well-cared for. We know that they adore her, based on the way that they get so excited when she stops by for any updated information we need to give before our trips. We have left our dogs and cats in Lauren's care for as long as three-weeks, and have always had peace-of-mind that our babies are health, happy, and safe while we are gone.

Information Lauren R. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to care for any dog of any size, but I have particular experience with large breeds. I have never had a bad experience with a dog (knock on wood) but would appreciate fair warning about any behavioral problems, particularly if the dog has ever bitten anyone. I am comfortable with dogs with this history (and have cared for dogs who are known to bite) but would like to know in advance if this has been a problem so that I know to be particularly careful in handling such dogs.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog I will spend a minimum of 1 hour with each dog that I care for each time that I visit, but will often spend several hours at a time with your pet. I can customize a care schedule with you if you wish for me to stay a particular amount of time. Extra house-sitting services Yes, I consider these tasks part of my responsibility as a pet-sitter; your house requires care as well
