Availability
For house sitting I usually get booked pretty fast. I am usually booked about a month in advance. I am currently working M-F at an elementary school in Framingham from 8:00-4:00. I will need some heads up in order to be able to fit your pet into my schedule, but if they fit I would absolutely love to hang out with them!

About Lauren V.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a dog that is a certified escape artist so I am familiar with taking extra care to make sure that your gate/leash/front door is secure. I also work with a lot of dogs that are either unfriendly with other dogs or afraid of men. As long as I know about their triggers before hand I am absolutely comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes with any fears!
Information Lauren V. would like to know about your pet
I do need to know if the dog is or is not friendly with other animals or if they have any fear of people. I have worked with a lot of dogs that are fear reactive (aggressive) towards other dogs so as long as I know their fear responses, I can behave accordingly around them. Given that I work eight hour work days I do need to make sure that is not too long for your pets to be alone.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your pet both physically and mentally. If they are able to go for a walk I can take them for long adventures that will definitely tire them out but will also be sure that they don’t overheat. If your animal doesn’t like to walk or is too old I’m fine staying indoors and playing games with them instead!

Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Lauren and I am currently working as a teacher in a Framingham Elementary School M-F from 8:00-4pm. I am an animal lover all around. I grew up with a Great Dane and currently have a small lab mix so I’m used to spending times with dogs of all sizes! I spent many holidays watching other families dogs for vacations. I have regularly sit for all types of dog breeds and truly love all animals. I love taking long walks to make sure your pet gets plenty of time to get all their energy out. If they don’t have the energy no worries, I have no problem just hanging out and petting them all day to provide some companionship! I truly believe that everyone says they have the best pet, and absolutely none of them are wrong! I would love to provide some love and care to your pet while you are not there!
Reviews
Lauren is wonderful! She has sat with our dogs twice now, and they adore her. Lauren is courteous, patient, and clearly a dog-lover and caretaker. I highly recommend her for all your pet-sitting and caring needs!
Lauren continues to be excellent with our girl Lolly. She takes wonderful care of her and loves her so much. Great communication. It's great to leave for a week and know your pet will be taken care of. Highly recommend.
Lauren was fantastic with our Bailey! Bailey has severe separation anxiety which makes it difficult to leave her alone. Lauren had great communication and sent multiple pictures. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but I’m glad I left her with Lauren!
Lauren always takes amazing care of our dog and home! She is very communicative and sends lots of updates and pictures. He is always so happy when she stays with him!
