Safety, trust & environment
Having pets of my own for the past 18 years, I know first-hand how important your pets are. Not only will I provide them with a safe environment, but I will treat them as my own, making sure that they remain happy and enjoy their time with my while you are away! When in my client's home, I will be neat and tidy, cleaning up after myself and your pet(s) if needed. Personally, I understand how hard it is to be away from your fur baby, so I will send video or picture updates as requested!
Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special circumstances or care that your pet needs as soon as possible. This will help me properly prepare and plan out my visit and/or walk.
A typical day
I can provide your dog with a large amount of mental stimulation. We can play games where they have to search for toys/treats or enjoy an exciting game of fetch! Along with mental stimulation, we'll also participate in physical activities such as a long walk, a trip to the park, or a run around the yard.

Pet care experience
I have been surrounded by animals my whole life, gaining experience in cat, dog, and even fish pet care. Currently, I have worked as a Kennel Assistant at Hayfield Animal Hospital for the past year. Through my job as a Kennel Assistant, I clean dog/cat cages, provide new food/water, and take dog boarders on walks. Due to my experience in this job, I have the skills to handle animals with different behavioral issues/needs comfortably. Furthermore, I have been a volunteer through the Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation for the past three years. As a volunteer, I clean cat cages, provide new food, water, and socialization, along with holding meet and greets with potential adopters at the 7 Corners PetSmart. I have also taken a two-year Veterinary Sciences course at my high school where I gained hands-on experience with different animal handling techniques and was educated on disease and behavior signs and symptoms. Overall, my experiences in animal pet care and handling have given me the ability to be comfortable and safe when handling different animals.

Reviews
Lauren is an amazing pet caregiver! She has taken care of my dog multiple times when I’ve been out of town and always provides me with the cutest pictures and videos of her. Lauren’s passion for animals always makes me feel happy and safe knowing my dog is in great hands. She consistently follows my instructions and gives my pup lots of extra love! I definitely recommend her as a pet sitter!
