“She hasn't came yet but her messages sounded very nice young lady.”
“We “emergency adopted” a cat a few days before going on a trip and needed to find a pet sitter quick. Enter Lauren, a literal angel in the form of a cat sitter. Not only was she super professional and friendly, she also kept extra watch over our cat when the lil man decided to eat something he wasn’t supposed to. Her expertise as a vet tech makes her an excellent pick for new pet parents, and we totally would recommend her to anyone!”

Shawn P.
“Shawn takes the best care of any fur baby she has/had the pleasure of spending time with. I know personally she has a cat with a lot of needs and she’s always letting me know all of the things she does to make sure he stays happy and comfortable in his environment. She always treats her animals as if they were a child of her own, and respects them as such aswell. I highly recommend her for Rover because you would never have to worry that she won’t be giving these babies the love and care that they deserve.”
