Pet care experience
Hi, and welcome to my page. I'm originally from Westfield and I know the surrounding towns pretty well. I want you to feel comfortable with me taking care of your pets. I've had the experience of raising kittens and puppies from birth. Bottle feeding to weaning onto regular food. I have experience with mini anything up to Great Danes. I previously worked for a dog groomer. So I have dealt with all different types of breeds. Each having their own personality. I've loved animals from a young age, and I will care for your pets as if they were my own family.
Reviews
Lauren understands animals and their needs. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a pet sitter/dog walker. I have known Lauren McMillan for over twenty years and during this time I have observed the dedication, loyalty and sensitivity that she has for our four legged friends.
Lauren is awesome with my pup. She’s safe, responsible, fun and great at communicating. She walks, feeds, plays and cares for my pup with no problems. My dog loves her and gets so happy when she comes in the door. If you are looking for a pet sitter/walker look no further Lauren is the right one for the job.
I have a wonderful 16 year old companion,mixed breed, gentle but has begun have mobility problems. Lauren is very understanding of this and makes sure Roxie is not being pushed beyond her limits when going for walks. I also see when other dogs are with them, Lauren makes sure the younger pups don't get to rambunctious around her. I can see it in her face how much she enjoys being around Roxie, I believe Roxie feels the same around Lauren. Pat D
Lauren is so loving with the pets she has. She is kind, concerned and takes excellent care of them. She has doggy-sat our dog and is so understanding of our dog who is now 15 years old. She has raised abandoned kittens who had to be bottle fed with care and compassion. I would not hesitate to have Lauren care for our pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I'm calm around pets. The last thing I want to do is scare them. I want them to feel safe under my care. Whether we're indoors or outside. I always hold leashes tight and have no problem picking up after them. (Please supply doggy bags). If receiving a bath, cotton balls are needed to protect their ears. (You must supply). I cannot bath matted dogs. This process must be done by a groomer. I am in the process of learning to groom and hopeful it will be a part of my services in the future.
Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any food allergies or special needs. How are they around other people and pets. I want your pets to be safe and feel safe.
A typical day
I love walking and playing games. So let's get your dog moving. Fetch, tug of war or just running around. If there's a local park they love we can visit. We know dogs love finding new smells around the neighborhood too.
