Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly & flexible pet care
Hello! My name is Lauren. I've raised several dogs and cats, including two senior dogs I adopted during a decade of employment in shelters and animal hospitals. I'm sensitive to a wide range of temperaments, experienced with behavioural challenges and health concerns or low mobility. I'm highly active and I love tiring out energetic animals. If your budget is limited, make me an offer!

Ratings and reviews
We recently left our dog with Lauren for 2 whole weeks! We'd never left her this long with anyone and it was our first time using a Rover sitter for her. Lauren put us at ease by making time to meet with her long before we booked. We were invited into her home and shown her backyard, time to chat and ask questions. One of my main concerns in leaving our dog was that she has a gastro issue and therefore needs to eat multiple smaller meals throughout the day. The questions she had for us indicated a level of care, experience and dedication that I hadn’t seen in meeting previous Rover sitters. Anyone who has a fur baby knows its not easy to leave them with someone. It can cause a lot of anxiety for us humans, as well as our little ones. We were so happy with the care and love Lauren provided to her. She sent us multiple updates a day with amazing photos, which put our minds at ease. We were also in a different time zone, and Lauren still ensured we were kept up to date. Our pup enjoyed her own vacation, meeting new dog friends for walks and Lauren let her sleep in the bed! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lauren to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals and can't praise her enough! I think they developed a sweet bond and we are so grateful. Thank you so much again, Lauren!
Lauren took great care of my dog Gigi and sent us an update with photos everyday. I would definitely use her again.
We cannot say enough about how absolutely fantastic Lauren is. Our sweet girl stayed with her for a week and had the most happy, contented time in Lauren's care. It made us feel so good knowing that Poppy was so clearly safe and loved and felt so secure with Lauren. We received photos and updates from Lauren each day and each one made us feel deeply happy that Poppy was in her loving care. Excellent communication and care for our beloved little miss :) Thank you Lauren!
My first time using Rover, and could not have been more pleased with Lauren’s care and attention to Khione. She immediately made me feel at ease, and Khione felt so at home. I really appreciated the photos Lauren sent throughout Khione’s time there and will definitely be booking with Lauren in the future. Thank you for treating Khione like your own ♥️
We left our 3 year-old pom cross with Lauren for 9 days. This was the longest boarding we had ever done, and the first boarding in at least a year. Lauren sent us pictures and a message each day to let us know how he was doing. It helped to put us at ease and our pup seemed to enjoy his time with Lauren, with walks and lots of visits with other dogs.
This was our first Rover experience and Lauren was fantastic! She has excellent communication and I immediately felt at ease with our initial meet up. She sent us regular updates and pictures and definitely showed our energetic dog a great time with walks, cuddles and lots of ball throwing!! Thank you Lauren!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will rely on our communication while building rapport with your pet. I maintain a calm environment and I am sensitive to a wide range of temperaments. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet very seriously; I'm mindful of potential hazards including security (doors ajar, etc).
A typical day
I'm highly active and in the case your pet is too, you'll come home to a tired and happy animal. I'm also content staying around the house and engaged with older dogs or dogs without as much energy.
