About Lauren

Hello! Thank you for coming to my profile! I have a lot of experience with animals, mostly dogs and cats. Animals are my passion! I've been around them my whole life. I had a cat growing up, and my friends all had dogs and cats too. I always used to ask to walk my friends dogs, and I'd take them all over the neighbourhood. In the past I've taken in my sister in laws cat for the last 3 years of her life, I had my own cat for 18 years, and I now have my own cat again who is 3 years old. I used to work as a vet assistant which included many duties like dog walking, giving medications, general cleaning up after the animals, helping restrain them for procedures and x-rays, etc. I volunteered at a barn and took horseback riding lessons when I was younger (best job ever, I miss it so much!). I've walked many dogs before and I'm currently walking my friends dog every week for her. I've looked after an asthmatic cat. I am also a cat foster with Zoe's Animal Rescue and I am a dog walking volunteer with them as well! I'd like to be able to help you out with dog walking, or I am also able to come to your home and check on your animals if you are away at all. I can also do over night stays or day stays. I can take cats into my home for over night stays and set them up in a sanctuary room, depending on how long their stay is, maybe they can meet my cat and make a new friend if their stay is long enough (personality depending too). I can't do dogs at my place though. I'm mobile so I can come anywhere to you in Edmonton! Send me a message please if you think I am the right fit for you and your fur babies.

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
+10 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
I have all types of experience with all types of different cats and dogs. I know how to handle over excited dogs on leash, pulling and aggression. With cats I definitely have experience with the spicy ones as well (2 of mine had attitude!). I have acquired some skills with animals that are not familiar with new people from my years of fostering with Zoe's Animal Rescue, like how to approach timid and scared dogs and cats. With cats I know how to cut nails, groom, and give medications too (liquid and pills). Any other questions regarding my skills just let me know and I'll be happy to answer.
