Safety, trust & environment

When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine. I follow all instructions carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. For added security and reliability, I operate as a two-person team with my partner. He handles majority of our transportation and assists me with most sittings, ensuring your pets get absolutely everything they need! Plus for you… your pets get double the attention, stimulation, play, and potty breaks!

Lauren was awesome! Would definitely recommend. Our Molly really seemed to enjoy hanging out with Lauren and even made a new friend with Lauren's dog. She was professional and stayed in touch providing pictures and video.

Lauren seemed to genuinely care about our pets and was respectful. She took good care of the house and left it clean before leaving. My primary issue was communication. There were several times that I reached out to her with concerns via phone, but she would only communicate through text. I understand wanting things in writing, but text often lacks clarity and doesn’t paint a full picture. My primary frustrations to discuss were a last-minute request for her boyfriend/business partner to join after discussing a no-guest policy and feeding our animals canned food that she brought from home. I have a senior dog with significant kidney disease that can be severely affected by the wrong diet. I know her intentions were good, but this was something that should’ve been discussed. Better communication could’ve prevented most frustration with this visit.
