About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life! I’ve taken care of family members and friend’s pets when they have been out of town and was responsible for making sure they got exercise, were fed, and had plenty of water. Hi! I’m going into my senior year at Baylor University and I absolutely love animals. This summer I spent my time dog walking and pet sitting both dogs and cats. I enjoy going on long walks and being outdoors. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and love volunteering at my local animal shelter back at home. My schedule is very flexible between classes, I can be available throughout the weekends and weekdays. :) I care for your sweet pets by going on lots of long walks, making sure they’re fed and given their proper medication, and provide them with lots of belly scratches and love!

About: Hi, I'm Tatum! I grew up in a multi-pet household, so I'm comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between! I offer drop-in visits, overnight stays, and dog walking and am happy to coordinate feeding schedules and playtime for multiple pets. I'm reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for your furry friends! I’m a teacher and coach during the school year so I typically get home in the late afternoon time. During the summer, I’m usually free! I employ what I describe as the perfect balance of a dog being in a home setting it's used to while also having the security on the individual dog level of a kennel boarding facility. I intend on delivering the same respect to the home and pet that I would like to receive.
