Information Lauren Rae R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that would help me understand them and their needs. No detail is too small!

A typical day

Love taking walks down a trail or to the park! I specialize in leash training and believe that exercise is important both physically and mentally for the pups. Rest and snacks are good too… I also love to sit with pets and read a book or watch a little tv!

Pet care experience

I have spent my life caring for animals of all sizes - farm kittens to watch dogs, horses, turtles, birds, and beyond. I know how hard it can be to leave town without them and the stress it can cause to not know who to trust with your beloved pets. I have working experience on farms and animal hospitals and am comfortable caring for the needs of pets of all sizes and ages, and can safely administer medication or supplements as needed. I love to play, train, do muscle work and energy work as well as make home made meals for them! I have had many pet-sitters in the past, some good - some horrible… because of those experiences I am able to promise you the best possible care for your loved one and the upmost discern in choosing a good fit for your home. PS - If you like photos and videos of your pets while you’re away, I’ll have a boat-load to send you 😉.

Laura was great! Henry had a blast with lots of walks and cuddles. She was very responsive with messages and sending us pictures. She was also very flexible with extending the sitting time as well, which we are so grateful for.

Lauren was a terrific sitter for our old pup Dexter! We had Lauren house sit and watch Dex during our 5 night trip. Everything went great! She followed Dexter’s food and medication schedule perfectly, regular walks, sent updates, and was a wonderful house guest. We came back to an immaculate home and very happy pup. Will definitely work with Lauren again!

Lauren took care of my dog Tinkerbell for 3 nights. She was so quick to respond to our last minute request and accommodate anything Tinkerbell needed. Any time I reached out she responded quickly and with pictures. She answered all questions & made our trip away from our dog stress free knowing she was in great hands and with someone I was able to reach whenever. Lauren made sure she was as comfortable with her as she was in her own home and that meant the world! Thank you, Lauren!
