Pet care experience
Pet lover looking for work downtown
Hello! I am a pet lover with years of experience in caring for pets young and old. I am based in downtown KC but have reliable transportation. If I am out of your range, message me anyway and we might be able to work something out :) In my life I have owned 1 dog of each size (small, medium, and large of course), two parakeets, a guinea pig, several goldfish, and a leopard gecko. I currently live downtown with my two kitties, Josie and Jade. I have several years of both catsitting and dogsitting experience with close friends and family members, and it has always been the most fun side job so I thought I'd give Rover a shot. I also have housesitting and plant care experience.
Cat care experience
Lauren also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I am communicative with clients & I like to send photos at client request. In situations of senior care or medication, I will always opt to message with a question rather than make an unsafe assumption. Additionally, I am a very clean person and prioritize leaving things how I found them.
Ratings and reviews
Lauren was excellent with our puppy and very professional. She taught our puppy a few new commands and he was sad to see her go. We will defend jerky be using her in the future.
Lauren S. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Lauren checks on my puppy Minnow for an hour, two to three times a week. Minnow is a working breed so I have a specific set of instructions to tire her out with training, sniff games and play time. Lauren follows it all and Minnow is always relaxed after her visit. I really appreciate her accommodating my schedule for Minnow and giving her the best care! She even gives my kitty some love while she’s there. Thanks Lauren :)
Lauren was a fantastic sitter! Communication was great whether it was asking questions or letting me know how my critters were doing. I could tell Rags (Brussels) and Clyde (Jardine) were well taken care of the week I was gone. Would highly recommend Lauren for pet care and will be using her again in the future.
Lauren was great with Cai, an indulged Cardigan Welsh Corgi. Cai was happy and looks forward to Lauren's visits. . Lauren connects with openness and kindness. Cai liked her immediately and enjoyed her visit! Thanks, Lauren for sleeping with Cai and letting him show you his world.
Lauren has been a trusted house and dog sitter for me for several years. She is warm and caring, and my dogs (current and previous) love when she visits! I highly recommend her!
