Safety, trust & environment

In my home, the pet will be able to roam freely around my house and sleeping will be left up to the owner whether they want them in a crate or not. I live in a quiet apartment with a dog park and can take them on lots of walks on nearby trails. In the family’s home, I will do whatever is most regular to the dog - including feeding, playing outdoors, and walking.

Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any reactivity to other pets on walks or any other special requests! I love to make pets as comfortable as possible :)

A typical day

My typical schedule includes taking pups out for a potty break in the morning first thing, and usually a longer walk in the later morning or early afternoon, as well as a night time walk. I enjoy going to the dog park or finding a fun place to play fetch/run around. I am very flexible as to making your dog feel at home and keeping up with their typical routine.

Pet care experience

Taken care of my own pets (1 dog and 1 cat!) and neighbors pets all throughout my childhood and absolutely love pets of all kinds. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing, relaxing, and ensuring they get lots of snuggles while owners are away. I enjoy snuggling and playing with cats and respecting their boundaries if they're more the introverted type!

Lauren went above and beyond while taking care of my cat Goose! I really appreciated how communicative she was and would be happy to have her cat sit again.

Lauren did an amazing job with our pets! We needed our cat Franklin + 2 geckos looked after while out of town, and she took care all of them like a pro. Communication was great, and consistent with every visit we had scheduled. She paid very close attention to every detail in our care instructions. It was a pleasure working with you, and we would love to have take care of our them again!

Lauren was really excellent to work with resulting in much needed peace of mind while out of town. She was very attentive to subtle aspects of pet care and did not require clarification or reminders. Her updates each day were thorough and specific, not over-generalized or repetitive. She went above and beyond in doing her best to provide the best care possible. She was also attentive to providing updates to anything happening around the house. I would not have any hesitations booking with her again or recommending her to a friend. Thanks again for everything!

Lauren was great to work with and very communicative! We felt comfortable with her taking care of our cat, Beau, and will definitely book again if we need help in the future. We loved all the pictures we received too!
