Availability

I’m home a majority of the day and have a very flexible schedule. I accept day-of bookings & cancellations. I am happy to work with you to set up a custom schedule that is cohesive for you and your pet(s). If possible, I prefer to meet pets before the booking to see them in their own environment and have an opportunity to make introductions with the owner present.

Safety, trust & environment

While with your pet(s) I do everything in my ability to keep them safe, comfortable, and build a rapport with them. My late Labrador, Oswald, was a high anxiety dog with special needs and I am acutely aware of how important routine and consistency is for pets.

Information Lauren W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, allergies/sensitives, and/or set routines you would like me to follow. I keep multiple dietary treat options with me for pets (grain free, chicken free, and soft dental treats) but I will only give them with the owners approval.

A typical day

I am a very active person and love to do lots of playing, walking, and running with pets. For senior pets/less active pets I have several sensory snuffle/treat mats and interactive toys I like to bring.

Lauren always takes excellent care of our cat, houseplants and flowers. All her photographs and status notes give us great peace of mind while we are away.

Lauren has helped us with our cat and plants for three years and always goes above and beyond what I would expect. Not only does she take care of basic needs, but she sends great photographs and useful messages daily, keeping the lines of communication open so we are free of worry while on vacation. She even puts out toys to entertain our elusive feline. Thank you for your help, Lauren!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
