About Lauren

My name is Lauren and I'm a neuroscientist that specializes in animal behaviour. I absolutely adore all animals and have heaps of experience caring for dogs and cats, small and large. With appropriate notice, I am able to work from home and can provide round the clock care for your furry friend. I can care for pets of any age, size, and temperament. I have two toy cavoodles named Andy and Penny. I'm happy to bring them along to play with your pet if that's something you would be interested in.

If you're looking for a pet sitter while you're on holiday, I would love to help! Though, I do ask that you fill me in on your pet's food, favourite toys, sleeping spot, if they're crate trained, and any other information to make them as comfortable as possible. I also ask that you fully disclose any aggressive or destructive behaviours that your pet may have. I am trained to work with animals with difficult tendencies, but it's always nice to have a heads up! I'm also happy to give baths and brushings as desired.

I am flexible in my availability to visit and can likely find time that best suits your needs. Typically I can do early mornings, afternoons after 2:00pm, and evenings. I'm also happy to take your dog to my local fully fenced dog park for some supervised play if that is something you'd be interested in.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Once again we came home to a happy healthy ginger cat! Thanks so much for taking such good care of George. And we love hearing about what George is up to while we're away!
