Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know whether or not it is house trained, whatever commands it knows, and any special care instructions that may be applicable. No breed preferences.

A typical day

I love to play with dogs in whatever their preferred form - be it throwing the ball for them, tug of war, practicing tricks, whatever! My apartment is right next to Greenlake so that is a favorite walk spot when I have dogs over, but love a neighborhood stroll as well.

Healthcare worker, animal lover!

Pet care experience

My love of and care for animals has spanned my entire life thus far. From growing up with dogs to frequent dog house sitting and walking to cat hosting for 2 months, I’ve been taking care of the animals of friends and family my entire adult life. I have experience taking care of all ages and needs of dogs and cats, including wrangling energetic puppies to taking care of senior animals with mobility and medication needs. My partner and I adopted a 15 year old cat from the humane society that we got to spend 3 cherished years with before he passed last fall, and have recently adopted a new bonded pair of young cats who we love so much! We do not own any dogs as we want to wait until we have a yard, but we love to live vicariously via taking care of our friends and family’s dogs.

Lauren is awesome and took great care of our two dogs and house! She kept us updated regularly and was very accommodating. Can’t wait to work with her again!

Lauren was awesome with my kitty Toast! He came back a happy camper, and I loved the pictures and updates while I was gone for the weekend! I would totally book her again in the future!

Lauren was awesome with Wally and kept him busy with trips to the dog park and walks. She does a fantastic job sending updates and pictures!

Wally had a great time at Lauren's home. We received many updates and pics which helps a nervous owner leaving their pet. Lauren was also understanding with pick up time changes due to flight problems. Will definitely use again!
