About Lauren

Hello,

My name is Lauren and I LOVE minding pets in their own homes. I'm in the Maroondah area however for longer stays I can travel around Melbourne.

My experience originally came from being asked multiple times to Pet/house sit for friends and family. I'm happy to share that one friend flew me to Perth to look after her two dogs while taking herself on a well earned holiday.

Ive now been on Pawshake for over a year with an enriching selection of jobs. I've worked with a variety of breeds, personalities routines, medical needs, home set ups and really fantastic people. Ive received excellent reviews with repeat clients. 

I am very flexible and am available most days. I value the benefits of Minding Pets and keeping to their routines and familiar areas. 

My focus is about the Responsibility, Safety, Trust and Wellbeing of each individual Pet. Minding your loved one is about meeting your needs and tailoring a schedule to suit. Also adapting to each pets behavioural needs and understanding different personalities and temperaments.

My preference is to do overnight stays for those going away Holiday/Work. Walks are included in my price, giving medication and light house duties. Eg bins, mail, washing blankets. 

I have a fantastic house mate who has a wonderful relationship with my dog Murphy, so he is well looked after at home while I'm Minding.

Australian Red Cross Pet First Aid , police check and working with children check are available. Please see my experience (skills) section of profile for referrals. Although I don't drive I have two people local to Maroondah available for emergencies. I'm happy to cover cost of any taxi required.

Please feel free to contact me with further questions any time.

My response time is approximately 1 hour.

Doggy Day Care is at your home.

Lauren was an incredible pet sitter for our two dogs, Silver and Scotch, while we traveled for 10 days. Her love and care for them were evident, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. Lauren provided excellent communication with constant updates, including photos and notes. She truly went above and beyond to ensure their safety and happiness. We highly recommend her as one of the best pet sitters!

Lauren was a wonderful carer for our pets. Her communication was excellent and I felt that our pets were in great hands. I would definitely use Lauren again as a pet sitter. Both the dog and 2 cats were very happy with her. Thank you Lauren for your beautiful care of our pets.

Reference 1 Lauren has grown up with animals and cared for many family and friends pets while they have been on holidays. Every year Lauren looks after our beloved ageing Bichon/ poodle and our cat with great care. Regular walks and play as well as any special dietary requirements and medicines. She is very respectful of other peoples homes and leaves them spotless. This year Lauren looked after a King Charles in a high rise city apartment and has done longer stints of up to several weeks for friends. She has dealt  with a number of breeds including large and small dogs. Her own dog is a rescue dog with a number of health issues and he has always had an exceedingly high standard of care and nurturing, to her credit as he does not get along with all people. Laurens sensitive nature makes her an excellent and insightful pet minder. I would highly recommend her for this position. Sincerely Kelly I am happy to provide a phone reference if required. Mob 0403567295 Reference 2 I’ve Known Lauren for over 5 years and in that time observing her care and attention to detail while caring for Murphy has been incredibly heart warming. Following her intuition, her depth and love for dogs she always acts quickly for what ever is needed. I fully trust and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Lauren as a dog carer. Robyn Mob 0414 458 677 Reference 3 Lauren looked after my Cavalier king Charles for almost week. I booked the house sitting service so there would be minimal disruption to Jesters routine and neighbourhood. Her affection and care for Jester was exemplary and there was an immediate bond between the two. I would have no hesitation about recommending Lauren as your pet carer, she is considerate, trustworthy and clearly loves animals of all sorts. Gavan Mob 0468 650 392
