Hi I'm Lauren, I am 22 and I am currently studying at Sandwell College. I have been a volunteer at Rodbaston Animal Zone in my spare time from 2019-2020. I have recently got my BsC (Hons) Animal Behaviour and Wildlife Conservation degree from the University of Wolverhampton. I have grown up around animals and enjoy looking after them; I went to Rodbaston College (2014-2016) and studied an Animal Management course which gave me access to hands on experience and knowledge for a range of species. I have owned cats, rabbits, hamsters, fish, a snake, stick insects and helped care for dogs in the past. I live near a nature reserve which I enjoy going to and looking for wildlife.

My motivation for pet sitting is that I love animals and believe they would benefit from being looked after at home in comfort rather than being taken to a boarding kennel, cattery or accommodation.

The services I offer will be dog walking and caring for pets in the owners home during the daytime with visits once or twice a day. Home visits include feeding and supplying water for your pet, (if you have a cat then emptying the litter tray), stroking your pet and allowing them outside if required, and anything else you'd like to be done for your pet whilst you're away. Dog walking lasts usually 10-20 minutes unless you request longer or shorter.
