The fur's just part of the job!

Hello! My preferred name is Tali :) I'm a seasoned veteran in doggy hospitality who just moved from Sacramento CA, having worked at a variety of kennels and facilities! My experience includes daycare/ group play, human/dog reactive pups, overnight boarding and medication administration, + some training. If there's anything my years of experience have taught me, it's to have patience. Every dog deserves it!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

The same way I visit my friends home, I visit yours! It's a privilege to be allowed in, and I make sure to leave the home better than when I arrived. I am a big supporter of crate training and am happy to reinforce boundaries you set, making sure your pup minds their manners even if your not home. Rest assured however, they will be getting as much love and scratches as I can fit in during free time!

If I could give more stars, I would! Tali is the best! He came on board to stay at our house over the holidays and made best friends with our dogs. He took excellent care of them, including medication and a dog that sometimes hunger strikes when we’re away. He was attentive, reached out with questions, took great care of our house and put our minds totally at ease! What a pleasure — A hidden gem of a human being, for sure!

I cannot say enough good things about Tali. He is incredibly kind, reliable, and good-hearted. It’s clear how much he genuinely loves animals. Our dog, Theodore, was always thrilled to see him. I knew that leaving him with Tali meant he was not only going to be safe (which we as pet parents always worry about), but have a blast getting his energy out. He treats every pet as if they were his own, with patience, attentiveness, and warmth, and anyone who hires him through Rover can feel confident that their pets will not only be safe but better off after their time with Tali.
