About Lauren

Hello, I'm Lauren, and I've been a passionate pet owner for 18 wonderful years. I am blessed to have two 15-year-old cats, along with a 2-year-old cat who keeps things lively. They are truly the biggest joys in my life. I recently had to say goodbye my 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 senior pets. 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 a Certificate II in Animals Studies and a Certificate III in Companion Animal Services. I am also eager to study vet nursing soon. So you can trust that I have been trained to give your pets the best care! 

Experience: I have been a foster carer for the RSPCA for the past 6 years, primarily caring for cats and kittens. This experience has honed my ability to create a comfortable an 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 that have been 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 2 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 furry companions and create lasting memories with them!

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

Lauren was a great sitter, always punctual and caring. She was clear and concise in all of her communications with us. She conscientiously updated us daily with photographs of our cats, receiving lots of love and attention. We would have no hesitation in getting Lauren back in to look after our cats, and we would highly recommend her.
