Pet Sitting Blackhawk

“Our family has been blessed with Tara! We could not be more grateful for how well she took care of our family of furry kiddos! Tara was extremely flexible with our changing schedule and ensured she gave extra attention to our kiddos when she came over and provided thorough report cards lol. We even found a box of treats that she had brought over for the pups! I felt confident about everything and didn’t worry about anything at all. Thank you, Tara!”

About: I have had cats & medium-to-large breed dogs my entire life. I have experience with senior dogs, especially grumpy cats, and giving oral medications. I am currently a stay-at-home dog mom to my spoiled rottweiler, Remington; so I have time during the day for walks or check-ins. I am a stay-at-home dog mom, so I have my days & evenings free to do check-ins or walks. I do NOT currently offer housesitting or boarding because of my spoiled rottweiler. 🐶💓 I ensure leashes are well fitting and follow all instructions provided. I secure any escape routes, and double check doors are locked or secure. I also make sure any choking hazards are put up or disposed of. Ensuring the safety of your pet is my number 1 priority.

About: I grew up on a farm! So from chasing chickens to rounding up horses, I’ve had the best time being around animals. The current lady of the household is named Stix. I am full time dog mom! I work full time but always find the time for my Stix girl. We take many walks throughout the day and all the pets you could imagine! My dog at home has a safe loving environment. I’d love to provide that to your loved fur baby by staying true to your wants and needs for them.

“Stephanie went above and beyond to make sure Odie had the best time while I was away at work for a week. She was flexible and accommodated last minute changes, she cleaned up after his messes and just did an amazing job. Thank you so much for all you’ve done for Odie and I!”

About: I love caring for animals, but travel enough to where I know I can’t have my own anymore. I watch my grand-dogs and I just have a blast with it. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life until now and have some love to give to your cute pet! I’ve had dogs ranging in sizes from a dachshund to a pure bred mastiff. I am almost always at home, so I can provide constant care and play time during the day. I am proficient is giving medications as well. (Even to the stubborn ones!) I take plenty of pictures and share lots of updates, so you won’t need to worry while you’re away. I look forward to giving your pet all of the love and special attention that it deserves! I spend the majority of my time at home so I have plenty of time to spoil your pet. When I do need to leave it’s not more than an hour or two. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet the needs of your pet. I live in an apartment and there is a walking trail right outside my door.

About: Besides being a pet owner myself, I’ve worked for a puppy breeder, at well loved dog and cat grooming salons, and been a veterinary assistant where I gained experience in medications. How to orally and transdermally administer, as well as some injections and fluids. I’ve previously been a full time pet sitter/walker before as well! I’ve had lots of experience getting to know the needs and behaviors of dogs and cats. I’m a huge exotic animal lover too so if you have any rodents, lizards, snakes I’d be comfortable taking care of those! I’m currently doing pet sitting and walking full time so I have lots of free time to accommodate your pet needs whether that be multiple visit through the day, or 1 hour + long visits. I am more than comfortable to take care of dogs in yours and their personal home setting as well as welcoming them to my home.

That means your fur babies will receive tons of love and many pets! I’ve taken care of numerous dogs and cats from various walks of life. For example, I started taking care of a rescue dog who was incredibly skittish and afraid when we first met. It took a few visits, but he warmed up to me and now lets me pet him! I will always follow your instructions meticulously, and I’ll be sure to ask questions if I don’t understand something fully. My ultimate desire is to love your fur babies well, and help you maintain their routine while you’re away. Thank you for trusting me with your animal(s)! I am currently pet/house sitting part time, as I do work retail (roughly 20 hours a week). My shifts are rarely longer than 5.5 hours, though. I still have ample time to spend with your animals.

Same goes for your home! I will always clean up after myself.

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bunny. Because of this, I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I have experience walking energetic dogs, caring for playful puppies, and making sure senior pets feel safe and comfortable. My background helps me tune in to each pet’s unique routine and give them the same love and attention they’d get from you. I currently work full-time, but I have some flexibility during the week with enough notice. I hope to be working from home full-time soon, which will allow me to be home more often and more readily available to help care for your fur babies during special events, last-minute trips, or whenever you need an extra hand! As of right now, I have a domestic long-haired cat and a puppy who is a Mastiff-Pit mix. I’ve had my cat, Garrett, since he was born and my puppy, Storm, since April of this year. They are getting along much better now, although Garrett will occasionally swat at Storm when he gets a little too playful—there have never been any fights between them. Storm is very sweet, social, and full of energy, and he loves playing with other dogs. I also have extra rooms available to give visiting dogs their own space when they need a break, some quiet time, or simply a little room to themselves.

“First time using the Rover service and our first time away from our pet for such a long duration. Franki was an excellent communicator, went above and beyond spending her time with our dog in his own home so he would be comfortable, and we're so thankful for her! Great experience and our new go-to option if we need to travel!”
