Great with animals of all size/ age
Pet care experience
I have always had a love for animals which lead me to make a career out of it! I have worked in 4 different animal hospitals and 1 rescue over the years. I loved that so much that I decided to start pet sitting on the side so clients didn’t have to board their pets. I've been pet sitting for about 8 years now. I love being able to help owners feel more at ease while they are away knowing that their pet is in good capable hands. While working in animal hospitals I did learn a lot including: how to correctly administer medication, the proper way to care for elderly pets, and what to do/ not to do when a pet becomes sick. These things have helped A LOT with pet sitting! I do try to keep my calendar up to date with my availability. Feel free to message me with any questions! Please don't ask me to come without a meet and greet. I will not do this for safety reasons. Thank you! :)
Reviews
Lauren is our only dog sitter for our 7 year old dachshund. Lauren has the magic touch, so much so that Lulie actually listens better to her than she does myself and family. Lauren is very responsible and respectful. She always confirms tasks that need to be done and in a speedy manor. I'm thankful to have Lauren nearby to help us even if it's just for a few hours vs an over night. Lauren has kept Lulie at our house for 14 days staying there so that Lulie would feel most comfortable in her own home.
Lauren did a fantastic job doing drop-in visits with my babies! She came by for a meet and greet and they instantly fell in love with her. Buddy even tried to leave with her! Lauren had great communication before, during, and after the visits. She even sent pictures of Buddy and Ciara with each report card. It made being away from them a tad easier. I will definitely be contacting Lauren again when I need her services again!!
Lauren will always be my go-to!!
Lauren is great! One of my dogs always goes on hunger strike when I’m out of town, and somehow she was able to get my dog to eat everyday! Lauren will never be able to get out of taking care of my babies from now on!

I am not able to do long walks at the moment. However, if it’s a small walk in the yard because you don’t have a fenced in yard that is totally fine!
Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet
I do require a meet & greet before you go out of town for the first time. Just so I can meet you and your pet(s) also vice versa! I also like to see what their routine is like so I can make them as comfortable as possible while your gone! If you have any questions or anything feel free to message me!
A typical day
For fun I would play with your pet or we could just hang out on the couch and watch tv. I adjust to the temperament of the pet!

I used to use rover years ago but was working full time and had a lot of clients ask me to pet sit through work so I had to stop using the app. (This is why my testimonials are pretty old…but a lot of the people that left one are still pet sitting clients of mine!) I am almost always available so I can help to keep your pet on whatever schedule you have for them!
