I work part time for a coral restoration organization. Due to this, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays there is a possibility of be being on and boat and away for most of the day. If you are okay with me being away for a typical 9-5 job I would love to watch your animals any day of the week. On the days I'm not working, I would love to watch your pet! I will be with them most of the day engaging in activities, or even just cuddling on the couch and watching movies.

Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know their name, age, if any medication is needed, and if they are reactive at all. I have taken care of reactive dogs, and don't mind doing so! Everyone needs some love! I take care of all animals and willing to learn if you have an exotic pet or a puppy that needs a little extra care. I also want to know emergency numbers and name of the vet that they see regularly, just in case of emergencies.

A typical day

While watching your pets, I want to keep them engaged in any activity they are participating in. During walks, I let them sniff around, I play fetch with them, or even just give them pets if that is what they want! If I'm allowed to take them to the dog park I will ensure their safety with other dogs and make sure they are enjoying their time, If not, we will leave.

I love to pet sit all animals!

Pet care experience

Since 2016, I've been providing loving, reliable care for pets of all kinds. While most of my experience is with dogs and cats, I've also cared for chickens, goats, fish, rabbits, geckos, and hedgehogs. I've looked after pets ranging from energetic 5-month-old puppies and kittens to sweet senior companions up that need medicines. My favorite part of pet sitting is getting to know each animal's unique personality. I love building trust with every animal, learning what makes them happy, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives pet parents peace of mind.
