Pet care experience

Tail Wags Guaranteed!

I love all pets—young or old, big or small! I’ve grown up with animals and have fostered dogs for over 10 years. I currently share my home with a sweet 7-year-old cat named Ziti and a gentle 14-year-old dog named Ellie. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and various breeds, and can administer medication as needed. I’m currently pursuing a graduate degree in nursing, so my full-time job would be caring for your pet, and I have flexible hours. I will treat your pet like family!

Lauren was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and we especially loved receiving daily pictures and updates—they gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Lauren did a fantastic job with walking, feeding, and making sure our dog always had fresh water, but most importantly, she truly showed our baby so much love and attention. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Lauren did an amazing job. I could tell my Rottweiler loved her from the smiles in the pictures. Lauren had great communication and followed all my instructions. I would definitely use her again and I am very happy that I found her.

Lauren sent great photos and updates throughout the day. She took extra care and was so intentional with our pup, Scout. We will definitely be happy to have her back to care for him!

Lauren provided amazing care to my little ones. Not only did she do what was asked of her, but she went above and beyond & even took them on an extended walk, giving them the extra exercise they really needed! The pups loved it! She also shared pictures of them and provided updates throughout the day! She was everything I had asked for and more. I will definitely use her in the future & would refer her to others.

Lauren is an exceptional dog sitter who goes above and beyond to care for every pup like they’re her own. She’s responsible, attentive, and truly passionate about animals. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions, Lauren ensures our dog feels safe, happy, and loved. She communicates clearly, sends regular updates, and always puts pets’ needs first. Her calm and caring demeanor instantly puts dogs (and their owners) at ease. If you’re looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely great with animals, Lauren is the perfect fit. She would be a fantastic addition to the Rover community, your pets are in great hands!

Lauren is everything you could want in a dog sitter—responsible, trustworthy, and absolutely wonderful with our pups, Buck and Bear. Buck is our high-energy, wild herding dog who needs a lot of exercise and attention, and Lauren handles him with patience and skill. Bear is more reserved and enjoys playing, but also needs his fair share of snuggles; she has a calm, gentle way with him that really puts him at ease. Beyond being great with our dogs, Lauren is someone we completely trust in our home. She’s respectful of our space, always leaves everything clean and tidy, and communicates clearly and consistently. We never have to worry when she’s here—she’s reliable, dependable, and genuinely cares. We’re so grateful to have found her. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your pets like family and your home with care, Lauren is the one!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

My hours and schedule are flexible. I’m currently pursuing a graduate degree in nursing, so my full-time job would be caring for your pet, which would be around my schoolwork.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own. I follow your instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, including feeding, playtime, medication, and any special needs. I’m mindful of keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll lock up properly, clean up after your pet, and be attentive to any changes in their behavior or environment. I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away, and I always communicate with you to provide updates and peace of mind.

Pets

A typical day

When I'm watching pets, I make sure they stay active, happy, and loved! For dogs, I love going on walks tailored to their energy level, whether it's a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood, or a fun game of fetch. If they're more playful, we can enjoy tug-of-war or playing with whatever their favorite toys are. For cats, I enjoy interactive playtime with toys like feather wands or laser pointers, and I always make time for cozy cuddles if they’re up for it. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and routine, so they feel safe, entertained, and cared for while you're away.

Before caring for any pet, I like to know their daily routine, energy level, and any special needs they may have like medications, allergies, or dietary restrictions. It's also helpful to know how they behave around other animals, people, and during walks. Understanding their likes, dislikes, and any triggers (like loud noises or strangers) helps me make them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know, the better I can match their routine and give them the same love and care they get at home!
