Doggin' around

Pet care experience

I've spent my whole life caring for my family's dogs, my neighbors dogs, and many more! Now that I've moved, I miss my dog time. I'm patient, well informed, and absolutely love play time. I am up to date on the popular harnesses and leashes. I wont let your puppy (theyre all puppies egardless of age or size) misbehave, and i'll make sure they are snuggled, run around, and, of course, photographed in adorable places, by the time you get home. Let know your dog's needs and I'll be happy to help out! I will treat them like i would want a dog of mine to be treated. I have experience with a dogs from small to large (Burnese mtn) and from low need to high need (nervous older german shepard rescued from abuse). I am experienced with cats, plants, fish, rabbits, and reptiles as well. Let me help with all of your pet needs!

Lauren is amazing with dogs. Many dogs can become stressed if their environment changes and Lauren is particularly good at keeping them calm and keeping their routine. One of my dogs is a terrier and whenever he gets stressed, he can get mean. Lauren has never had a problem with him, he even seems to like her. My other dog is a highly attached doberman, who whenever anyone in my family leaves will stare longingly at the front door. Whenever we return to him, it is clear she has been comforting him and he seems less lonely.

Lauren has an exceptional compassion and concern for animals in general. I have an 13 year old Boston Terrier (who thinks she is a puppy) and Lauren has been amazing walking her, feeding her, giving her medicine and giving her all the hugs and attention she needs. I can always rely of Lauren when she cares for Elizabeth (my pup). I highly recommend Lauren. She's a lovely person and a great friend to animals.

Lauren is a trusted pet sitter and I highly recommend her! She is new to Greenbelt but comes with a wealth of knowledge about animals. Request her if you ever need a great sitter!

Lauren has been our pet-sitter for many years, ever since she was in high school. She is far and away the best we have ever used. She is compassionate, responsible, caring, wise and knowledgeable about what pets of all different varieties need. She has watched them in our home for as much as a month at a time, and also walked/fed/played with them during the day as needed while we were at work. Over the years she has tended to four dogs, two of whom are elderly now and dance with joy when they see her coming, several rabbits, many gerbils, fish from small and many to enormous and solitary [and grumpy], a hedgehog, a cat, and an iguana. She is intuitive and always responsible. She always leaves are home in better condition than she found it. We consider Lauren a godsend.
