Safety, trust & environment

My apartment is very clean and doesn’t have any delicate furniture or areas of danger. And it’s small so the animal is rarely out of sight. When I take a dog out I’m EXTREMELY cautious about every person or animal that we pass to make sure nothing happens.

No children present
Dogs allowed on bed

Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference. I would like to know if there’s any previous violence (not that it would change my desire to sit for them, just to know how to treat them and react), if they shed, and how well are they potty trained!

A typical day

I live very close to Wagner Park and Teardrop Park where there is plenty of space to walk around as well as space for dogs to roam. Activities would include playing, running, even bathing if requested!

Forever animal lover and carer!

Pet care experience

As a previous owner of 4 dogs (at once), I’ve had years of complex dog experience along with a deep love for all dogs. I tended to all 4 of their feedings twice a day and multiple walkings. I’ve also been doing dog care in NYC for almost 9 years now! Near me there’s plenty of walking space as well as comfortable couches and beds for the dogs to lay on, or I’m more than willing to come to your home to keep the animal as comfortable as possible. As a WFH employee I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of time and availability that I’d love to spend with dogs and helping those who need some help with theirs. I’ve also had years of experience helping care for sick or elderly dogs who require medication or extra assistance, high anxiety rescues, and strong pups!

Lauren is amazing with my dog, Saucy! She kept me updated and was a pro with his medication routine. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter that will treat your dog as their own. She is my first choice to take care of Saucy when I have to travel. She also takes the BEST photos of him! I come home to a happy pup and semi professional photos 🤩

Lauren was great and took excellent care of my pup! She was flexible and able to help out in a last minute situation. She was super responsive and gave updates on how he was doing throughout his stay. I could tell that he was relaxed and had settled in well with her when I came to pick him up. Thank you so much!!

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.
