About
Warm greetings and welcome to PurrBaby Pet Care, LLC! My name is Lauren and I dearly love animals. I have an extra special place in my heart for senior and disabled pets.
I've been pet and house sitting for 8+ years which has included caring for dogs (my first love), cats (I'm obsessed), rabbits, chickens, rodents (so cute!) and lizards. I understand the way animals communicate and I take my time with getting to know them. It is important to me that animals feel comfortable and safe within my care. Having cared for elderly dogs and cats, I have experience medicating animals and catching warning signs that they aren't feeling well. I welcome you to read what clients have had to say about my services, here.
I am:
-
a bonded & insured pet sitter 🛡️
-
pet first aid & CPCR certified (dogs, cats, rabbits and rodents) ✙
-
a member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters, Pet Sitters International, and Pet Sitters Associates 🐾
Some other details about me: I'm a Portland NET, master gardener (in training!), vegan, cyclist and I live in a tiny house within an intentional community. I'd love to nerd out with you about any of these things! 🤓
Questions? Please contact me here. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your furry (and scaled and feathered) friends! 🐕🐈🐇🐀🐓🦎

"Lauren has cared for my pets so many times now that I refer to her as their auntie. She loves animals and has the kindest soul, plus she's extremely responsible, attentive, and somehow always leaves things cleaner than when she arrived. I'm a veterinarian, and have pretty high standards for pet care. It's been such a relief to know my babies are in the best possible hands while I'm gone!" -DR. JENNIFER CARR
