Pet care experience

No pet too big or small!

I have grown up and worked with animals my whole life. From having both dogs and cats growing up, to working as a Sea Lion trainer at the Milwaukee County Zoo, I have learned how to care for, and train, animals on a daily basis. It’s fun to get to know their different personalities, what motivates them, and understanding what will make their day positive. I love going on long walks or just lounging and giving lots of pets. Along with caring for animals, I work as a part-time nanny!

Safety, trust & environment

Taking care of a pet is the same as taking care of someone else’s child. Their needs come first and it’s important to know what they enjoy and what motivates them. It’s equally as important to gain their trust and create a safe relationship with them, even if it’s only for a small amount of time. A positive relationship in return gives a positive experience.

Lauren is amazing with my dog, Lloyd! She gives him all the walks, snuggles and love whenever she watches him! She has watched him for just a few hours as well as a long weekend. We love Lauren!

It’s important to know if anything that makes the dog anxious. How they are around other dogs. If they are high energetic dogs or can tire out easily.
