Pet care experience

Guide dog trained trusted pet carer

Hello and thank you for visiting my Rover profile👋 ⠀ I have hands-on experience with The Guide Dogs, having boarded dogs during their formal training. That experience taught me to be calm, consistent, and highly attuned to canine behaviour. ⠀ WHY CHOOSE ME 🐾 I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments - from energetic, playful pups to more sensitive or steady older souls. I understand how to read canine body language and provide clear, calm guidance so dogs feel safe and secure. ⠀ STANDARD WALKS - 45 MINUTES 🐾 Please note: my standard walk is actually 45 minutes (Rover only offers 30 or 60-minute booking options), so your dog will get a 45 minute walk with me, not the advertised 30 minutes. Please see my reviews to hear from other pet owners. ⠀ MEET AND GREET 🐾 I always recommend a meet and greet before a first booking. This allows us to discuss your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific requirements, while giving your pet the chance to get to know me. It ensures we’re the right fit and that you can leave with complete peace of mind.

Dog Walking • Jul 04, 2026

Lauren was an outstanding dog walker from the first meet and greet, we knew we’d found someone special! Her communication was exceptional and we’ve though we were abroad we didn’t have to worry about bit she sent a detailed roundup of each day as well as photos and videos. Our old boy loved her and got extremely excited when she arrived. We would 100 % recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use Lauren again. 10/10 would recommend!!

Lauren was such a super star. We only booked her for a simple drop in visit yet we still got a full report on it with lots of photos. Lauren really cares about providing pawtastic care and service. She replied very promptly to messages and was flexible with changes. 110% recommended :)

I reach out to Lauren whenever we have a longer trip. Then I know for sure our cat and a dog are taken care of by the most loving and caring soul.

We were so glad to have Lauren caring for our cats while we were away for a few days. She called in twice a day to make sure Millie and Gizmo were fed and had lots of cuddles and playtime. We definitely recommend her!

It’s really helpful to know about your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs. Please let me know about feeding times, medication, walking preferences, fears, triggers, or quirks – whether your dog is reactive, nervous around traffic, or loves a particular route, or if your cat is shy, chatty, or prefers space. The more I know, the better I can match your pet’s normal rhythm and make their time with me feel familiar and comfortable.
