Lauren can care for
Availability
I’m currently a college student who is home for summer break, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention and care throughout the day! I’m available for walks or drop-ins during weekdays at any time, and I have open availability on most weekends. Since I already have a dog of my own, pet care is naturally built into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company.

About Lauren Z.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they can stay as stress-free as possible while their owner is away. I make sure pets get plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection, while also sticking to feeding schedules and any instructions provided by the owner. Growing up around dogs and having a golden retriever of my own has taught me how important patience, trust, and consistency are when caring for animals.
Information Lauren Z. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and any special needs ahead of time. I’d also like to know about feeding schedules, medications, allergies, triggers, favorite activities, and how they interact with other people or pets.
A typical day
I love keeping pets active, happy, and comfortable! Depending on each pet’s personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch or tug-of-war, and giving lots of cuddles and attention.

Pet care experience
Growing up with dogs has given me years of hands-on experience understanding different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I currently have an 8 year old golden retriever of my own, so caring for dogs is naturally part of my everyday life. I genuinely love being around animals and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they are my own. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and comfort level so they get personalized care instead of just being “watched.” I’m also very patient with high-energy dogs and understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and positive interactions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, sticking to feeding schedules, or giving extra attention to anxious pets, I make sure each dog gets the care they need.
Reviews

Thanks for taking such good care of our dog, Lauren! Lauren was punctual, professional, and super caring for our dog.

Lauren was reliable, on time and always did the full time if not more on the walks. My dog loved her and looked forward to her coming. I highly recommend Lauren!

Friendly, punctual and communicative~

Lauren was punctual, patient, and very loving with our dog. He has a lot of energy and Lauren did great job managing that and walking much of the energy out of him. Thanks for taking such good care of him!
