About Lauren

Hello, I'm Lauren, and I've been a passionate pet owner for 18 wonderful years. I am blessed to have two beautiful cats who are truly the biggest joys in my life. Last year, I had to say goodbye to my best friend, an 18-year-old Maltese Shih Tzu. Not having a dog around after 18 years has been a big adjustment, so it would be a huge joy to hang out with your pets!

My experience as a pet owner has taught me to handle daily medications with ease, ensuring the well-being of all pets. I am particularly familiar with the care of senior pets and have a real soft spot for the oldies 🩵 - the crustier the better! All of my pets are vaccinated, and their safety and health are my top priorities.

In addition to being a dedicated pet owner, I have just started my studies to become a veterinary nurse! I already have a Certificate II in Animal Studies and a Certificate III in Companion Animal Services. So, you can trust that I’ve been trained to give your pets the best care.

Outside of my studies, I have been a foster carer for the RSPCA for the past six years, primarily caring for cats and kittens. This experience has honed my ability to create a comfortable and loving environment for animals under my care. As a pet sitter, I've looked after cats, rabbits, birds, and dogs. I'm proud to say that the pets in my care have always been at ease in my company.

Your furry companions will be in safe hands, and I guarantee they will feel at home in my care. Beyond my passion for animals, I also have a Cert II in Horticulture, so if you have plants in need of attention, I'm more than happy to take care of them while you're away.

As a pet sitter, I promise to treat your beloved pets as if they were my own, providing them with all the love, care, and attention they need while you're away. Your pets' safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities, and you can trust me to go the extra mile to ensure they are comfortable and content during our time together.

Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter. I'm excited to meet your fur babies and create lasting memories with them!

*Brunswick East based* I would also like to note that I do not own a car and get around by either public transport or by bike.

So great to use Pawshake for the first time and have it be so amazing. Lauren was so kind and helpful and it was such a relief knowing my cat was well looked after by her. Thank you

Lauren took great care of our senior dog Dorothy. She was reliable and ensured she received her medication on time, providing updates. Thanks Lauren🐾🐾
