Highlights
Pet care experience
Veterinarian & animal lover!
Ever since I was a little girl, animals have been an important part of my life. Today, caring for animals is not only my passion but also my career as a veterinarian. I have dedicated my life to understanding, caring for, and advocating for the well-being of pets. Before becoming a veterinarian, I spent many years volunteering in animal shelters, where I gained valuable experience understanding animal behavior and working patiently with anxious, fearful, and nervous pets. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether your pet needs medication, special attention, extra patience, or simply lots of love and companionship, you can feel confident knowing they are in experienced and caring hands. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention to your pets that I would want for my own.

Safety, trust & environment
I treat every home with the utmost respect and understand that I am also entering your pet’s personal space. I am committed to providing thoughtful, reliable care while respecting your home and following any instructions you provide. I am comfortable crating pets when needed and administering medications or other routine care. If you have a nervous, anxious, or fearful pet, please let me know ahead of time about any special instructions or precautions for entering the home or approaching your pet. I am happy to take things at their pace and give them the patience and reassurance they need to feel comfortable. I highly encourage a meet-and-greet before your first booking. This gives me the opportunity to meet you and your pet, learn their routine and preferences, and begin building a trusting relationship before you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and confident while they are in my care.
Ratings and reviews
I do not have to worry about Martini's care with lauren. I know she will go above and beyond to make sure she is cared for. I do not have to check up or check in to make sure she does her job. I can trust that if she says she will be there, she shows up. She also does more than stop in and take care of her. She spends time playing with her and cuddling with her as well. I cannot recommend enough
I couldn't think of a better candidate to care for my precious babies while I'm away. She is a very trustworthy person that cares so passionately about the animals health and wellbeing. So much so that she is pursuing a future in the veterinary world! Who could possibly top that?

Schedule
On my days off I love to be out and about providing care to pets, whether that’s a quick check in or a longer walk to work out any extra energy.

- Please let me know if your pet tends to be nervous, anxious, or fearful around new people. Knowing this in advance allows me to approach both your pet and your home thoughtfully and safely, while taking the time to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I would love to arrange a meet-and-greet with you and your pet before the first booking. This gives us an opportunity to get acquainted, discuss your pet’s routine and individual needs, and make sure I am the right fit for you and your furry family member. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable and confident knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands while you’re away.
