pups are people too!

Pet care experience

I am a responsible, young professional. I just returned to Capitol Hill from London after completing my MA. I am very familiar with most areas having lived here for 9 years before leaving for school. I have housesat and cared for several other dogs the last 15 years and recognize the importance of caring for animals properly and giving them all of the love and attention that they need! I am very flexible now as I am still looking for permanent work and hope to continue to sit on weekends after securing a job. I look forward to caring for your little pupper!

So glad to have found Lauren! I really appreciated her responsiveness and also the text, photo and video updates throughout our pup’s stay! It eased my mind being away on a trip knowing that Phoebe was well loved and taken care of. It was a great experience, and we certainly hope to book again-thank you, Lauren!

Lauren is extremely communicative and thorough! She really goes above and beyond to make sure that our dog is happy and comfortable and that we are aware of any updates. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a walker or sitter!

Information Lauren S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is anything I should know about your dog beforehand. I always want to make sure to take great care of them. I live a short walk from a vet and have cared for many breeds and ages of dogs, so I am confident in my abilities, but I would love to know anything that may put you at ease!

A typical day

I live next to Lincoln Park, so there is no shortage of space to exercise and play! I like to go for walks around the neighborhood, sit at the nearby cafe and watch other dogs and people, play with toys inside, share naps on a rainy day! Whatever your pup enjoys most.
