8 Years of Professional Animal Care
Pet care experience
Hello! I am excited to get to know you and your pet! To get started I'll tell you a little about my self and my many years of experience working with animals. I spent 6 years as the head keeper at a wonderful cat sanctuary in Oregon, before moving to Washington and working as a vet assistant for 2 years. Most recently I worked as a shift lead at a high end dog daycare and hotel, before deciding to pursue other career possibilities. Although I am now working in a different field, I still love animals and want to continue to work with them in my spare time. I have experience in dog walking, cat care, basic training (e.g. clicker training), monitoring health conditions, administering medication etc. I love all breeds and sizes, even exotic pets. I am comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions so rain or snow won't prevent your pet from getting outside! We'll just throw on our rain gear and have a blast.
About Lauren S.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am extremely safety conscious! Years of caring for wild cats in a sanctuary has trained me to always be alert. I am confident handling everything from hyper active pups to medical emergencies. I’ve seen it all, so your pet will be in good hands.
Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any problematic behavioral issues that I should keep an eye on, especially any aggression towards other dogs. Any medical conditions will also be essential information to have.
A typical day
I have tons of experience providing enrichment for animals, whether it be interesting scents, treats, training tasks or something totally unique to your pet. I would also love to provide adventure walks at Lacamas Park. This service would be available for clients within 5 miles of the park and would be priced to include extra gas.
