Vet student family funding school!

Pet care experience

I run this account with my parents and between the three of us we have a lot of animal experience! My mom has been a working veterinarian for 30 years. I have worked/volunteered in the veterinary industry officially for six years, taking care of cats and dogs of all ages! Before that I had a lot of experience with fostering animals as my mom is a vet! I have bottle fed puppies and kittens and done some basic training with young dogs. I have experience giving medication topically, orally and in the form of an injection. I understand proper safety when walking a dog from walking dogs boarded at the clinic. I also have some experience with exotic animals such as birds and reptiles and horses!

Lauren has been amazing! Great communication and coordination with us. Above and beyon with our doggy. She took her on a walk and celebrated her birthday. So much fun that helped our doggy forgot that she was separated from her pack. At the end of the day, Cocoa seemed happy and not stressed at all. Thanks Lauren for making this day a breeze for our family. We highly recommend Lauren who went the extra mile.

We highly recommend Lauren T! Our dogs boarded with her over Christmas and she treated them like part of the family, even wrapping gifts for them to open. She walked them daily, even taking them to the beach. She sent us updates and photos of our happy dogs every day, too! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of our beloved pups!

Safety, trust & environment

As a student I love to spend time with animals while I study! I find it a good way to help me relax and help your furry friends destress. I also love walking and feel safer when I can do it with a four legged buddy! I cannot house pets in my own home, but in entering your home I promise to treat it with respect and follow all rules and guidelines laid out for me in regards to home maintenance and pet care!

Information Lauren T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any quirks or special characteristics I should know about. I would also love to know how they are around other dogs/pets, new people and children. What are your pets allergies? Are they on a certain diet? What is their general daily routine?

A typical day

I love playing with pets as I think it is a good way to get energy out and relieve stress. I know my family dogs love going to the dog beach so if that is something your pet likes to do/is comfortable with I would love to take them on little adventures like that. Training is also another good way to prevent boredom in pets so if there are any tricks or commands you are working on, let me know!

I am currently a full time student at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies in Edinburgh, Scotland, getting my doctorate in veterinary medicine. I will be returning from Scotland for the summer and will be working during the day but my breaks will allow me to take care of pets! I don't have any concrete plans for weekends so I am fully open to pet care duties! My mom works part time and my dad works full time but part time at home. Between the three of us, we make sure all the pets are cared for all hours of the day.
