About Lauren
I am the daughter of a vet and have cared for animals my whole life. I am confident but gentle with animals. I am a part time school teacher with a hubby, three primary aged children. Our 12 year old cavoodle recently passed away. I am home from lunchtime most days (working only a few mornings). We used to walk our own dog (and sometimes our neighbour's too! That's the Golden Retriever in our photos) nearly every day.

We have a large, fenced and secure back yard with an outdoor undercover deck area for shade on hot days. My own dog was an outside dog during the day and slept inside at night. I’m flexible with what your animals’ needs will be.

My children (youngest aged 6) will play, cuddle and walk animals so all animals need to be child-friendly. My children are not rough and respect our furry visitors.

Our house is clean, smoke free and all human and dog vaccinations are up to date. I am flexible with pick up and drop off times. We have security measures in place however our street is incredibly safe and we are located at the end of a cul de sac.

I am comfortable with basic medication administration (topical, oral pill, oral liquid) and am happy to perform grooming tasks.

I can communicate using basic Auslan signs and finger spelling so welcome any hearing impaired clients. I am also a special education trained teacher so if any clients (or animals), have special needs, please get in contact and I will do my best to accomodate.

We have experience looking after many friend's and family’s animals and we love having lots of different animals visit our lives!

AAA+++ Lauren was an awesome sitter. Our dog was extremely happy at the end of his stay. Her communication was perfect & she provided photos during his stay, showing how much love our dog was receiving. Will definitely book with Lauren's family again.

Lauren and family loved on our Cavoodle like he was their own. She sent us photos and updates to keep our mind at ease. I would highly recommend.

Lauren and her family were wonderful and so kind and accepting of Gypsy. I loved getting photos of Gypsy having fun, being exercised and loved.
