Can I pet your dog?
Pet care experience
My headline is probably my most asked question anywhere I go lol. My family has had a multitude of different pets over the years, so I actually know how to care for a lot of animals including an African bullfrog if you can believe that. I've also been house sitting/dog sitting for friends and family for years. I'm also really good with cautious dogs, I know how to make a dog who doesn't like strangers warm up to me. It might take a little while but eventually they love me. As far as walks go I love walks and who better to do it with than a dog? But I'm also conscientious of heat, where to walk on hot days so their paws don't burn and water for us to drink.

Tasha has been my dog sitter for several years. All my pups have loved her. Belle and Benjamin recognize her as their fun friend who gives them her undivided attention🙂 Tasha has been available whenever I needed her and even was there to check in on my sick Springer Spaniel home alone while I was at work. Tasha takes them on their walks and keeps them on their regular feeding routine when she is taking care of them. My 17 year old fussy kitty loves her too. ❤️ I trust Tasha with my kids and in my home. Tasha is the best.
It’s no simple task to find someone to care for our 45 chickens and another 15 of dogs, goats and pigs. The winter is especially difficult. I needed someone I could trust with my animal family. Tasha M needed to sleep over, get up super early feed and water everyone and spread some love to all of them. My biggest challenge is Sage an older dog that has issues. She hates to be alone and is very needy. She loves Tasha!! When we got home all of the animals were calm, no stress, and my home wasn’t a mess. I had a much needed vacation. I will 100% use Tasha again and hope she continues watching animals for a long time. Looking forward to my 2024 holiday vacation. You will love Tasha too!
Tasha is a huge animal lover! She is so caring and thoughtful. One of the best and responsible animal care takers I have ever had. Feel completely at ease with her in charge of my animals, you will not regret hiring her! Your loved ones will be treated with the upmost love and attention. So great, and trustworthy!
About Tasha M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I strive to keep animals at ease by keeping their normal routine. So I often ask about what the animals normal day looks like and plan accordingly.
Information Tasha M. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to know if pets have certain aversion to things, medications to take, special diets, and important routines for them to keep. The more I'm aware of the better I can care for them.
A typical day
I enjoy doing whatever they enjoy doing. If that's playing tug o war, fetch, using a laser pointer for them to chase the red dot, blowing bubbles for them, or if they're more laid back just kicking back with a good cuddle session.

I have a decent amount of control of my work time. So while yes I do have to go into my office between 9am and 4pm I am able to leave to take animals for quick walks, playtime, and of course potty breaks during those hours. My goal is not to leave animals without these types of interactions for more than 5 hours at a time. Of course for special needs animals and puppies this can be appropriately adjusted.
