My overnights have filled up pretty quick through the end of the year, but if you see availability, do be sure to reach out. I am still happily accepting drop-ins and walks and happy to work with you if you need regular drop ins. I am currently a graduate student and will have ample availability throughout the day to care for your sweet friend! Currently available 7 days a week, so just connect with me as your needs arise!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I ensure they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, providing walks, playtime, feeding, and any special care they may need within my capabilities. I’m attentive to their emotional well-being, offering affection, companionship, and reassurance while you are away. I’ll also keep your home tidy if pet sitting in your home and can provide updates to give you peace of mind.

Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are certain behaviors unique to your dog that I need to be mindful of, certain commands you use, or special care details. I appreciate over-communication about their care needs to ensure your pet is well taken care of. If there are specific cleaning instructions or supplies you would like me to use, please communicate that as well as ensure all supplies are easily accessible. Additionally, I will offer a discount if you are booking 3+ animals for 3 or more nights. I’ll communicate with you about this after you’ve requested services. I am happy to work with you to ensure best service and care can be provided. I’m happy to offer meet and greets to ensure a great fit and provide peace of mind for you and your pets. For bookings that include multiple visits or overnight stays, meet and greets are complimentary within 10 minutes of my location. For one-time drop-in visits, or if you’re located more than 10 minutes away, I do charge a small fee to help cover travel and time. I’ll always communicate this clearly ahead of time, and I’m happy to explore alternatives like a virtual meet and greet or combining it with the first visit when possible. Thank you for understanding and for valuing the time and care that go into making sure your pets are in good hands!

A typical day

We will go for walks, explore surrounding areas as able, and enjoy more low-key moments together at home. It’s fun for me to learn about the unique needs of all the dogs I care for.

Experienced, attentive pet care

Pet care experience

I recently moved to Chattanooga and have been glad to meet so many lovely furry friends already! I’ve got a lifetime of experience with dogs and a deep understanding of their needs. Growing up, my family always had 3 dogs (big, little, and everything in between) and cats, and they became dear companions. I provide personal care, ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and at home. I know trusting your buddy to someone requires trust, so I am attuned to both the physical and emotional well-being of your dog or cat. Whether through play, walks, or snuggles during quiet moments, I’ll treat your buddy with a high-level of care.

Wonderful dog sitter! Our dog was happy and well cared for, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. We will definitely book again!

Lauren did a great job watching our dogs & cats while we were out of town. She kept us up to date on every visit & gave them pets & love while we were away.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
