About
Where every animal gets treated like family. Hi! My name is Lauren! With a Bachelors B.S in Animal Science and hands-on veterinary clinical experience, first aid/CPR trained. “Fear Free” certified. I bring more than just a love for animals, I bring practical knowledge and a calm presence that animals trust. I’ve spent the last 6+ years working with all kinds of animals, I specialize in animals that others may turn away, reactive, shy, or medically complex; because I know they deserve just as much care and understanding.

Couldn't recommend Lauren enough! We have an axolotyl, hermit crabs, a cavapoo, a cat and a larger dog and she is so good with all of them! There's definitely a lot of people i see posting about pet sitting, but none of them, that ive seen, have the educational background or clinical experience to back them up. She works with horses and livestock-if youre in need of someone passionate and trustworthy to care for any of your animals, she's your girl for sure!

We were struggling to find last minute care for our horses and livestock. Lauren was incredibly flexible, professional, and she even came by after hours to speak with us due to our hectic schedules. She sent us daily updates and we never have to worry about anything when she’s with the animals

Lauren has been great with our herd. She don’t just toss hay and ride off, she checks the waters, watches how they’re eating and lets me know if something ain’t right. She worked with my problem colt, gettin’ him used to clippers, fly spray, tarps. I figured it’d take forever, but with her patient, gentle hand, that colt found his confidence quicker than I thought possible. Makes the day-to-day chores a whole lot easier on me. While I’ve been laid up from surgery, Lauren’s been handling turnout and daily checks. I don’t have to worry a lick- my horses are well-fed, put out to pasture, and looked over careful, especially the yearlings. She sends me pictures and updates.
