Vet Experience, 24/7 Pet Care ♡

Pet care experience

Dog sitting is more than potty breaks and bowls of kibble, it's loving an animal like they're your own, and I'm the best at what I do! I've had dogs all my life, and in addition to personal pet care I've worked in the pet business from the very beginning of my career. I've got a background in the veterinary world as well as a tour through the doggy boarding, daycare, and even training! I've done all the training and certifications to make me the very best in the industry! I understand the needs and behaviors of different dogs and can provide appropriate care based on their age, breed, and individual personality. I've got you covered down the very last detail! Your furry friend needs medication? I'm certified to administer everything from pills to insulin shots! Specialty diet? I'm minding every detail! Working with me is giving your dog a best friend who cares about them, from the tip of their nose to the top of their tail!

Talia was a very passionate dog sitter for our two Brittany ‘s. She took great care of them so we felt they were in safe hands while we were out of town. The house was tidy and she was response to my texts and send fabulous photos.

Talia was great and pleasant to meet. She was on time and reliable and took great pictures of the dogs. We will try to work with her again in the future!

Thank you so much for walking Hubert. He’s still a puppy so he needs as much walking, teaching, and coaching as possible so we are happy Talia has experience and a love for animals.

Safety, trust & environment

When you book with me you get the best of the best! If I'm in your home I'm a well mannered guest, I make the bed, do the dishes, and take out the trash. I leave it how you left it, my goal is for you to question if I was even there! When in my own home your animals have the run of our home during the day and a comfortable bed at night! I have two well socialized, well trained, pups and very chill cat that is indifferent to any additional animals in her space. We do kennel our dogs for their own comfort as they get restless, but I offer a kennel free boarding experience!

Information Talia M. would like to know about your pet

I want to know everything there is to know about your baby! I'm no stranger to any special needs, behavioral issues, or anything else there is to know, so give me everything you've got!

A typical day

I prefer to keep the animals on their normal schedule if possible while including lots of fun activities! I have a dog park close to my home and am a frequent visitor with my own pups! I also have training in my background and love to add training to my list of mentally stimulating activities! Any dog can learn a new trick, no matter the age!

I'm currently working "freelance" as a dog trainer so my schedule is a bit hectic. I can make almost anything work if given enough heads up and ig you're willing to work with me!
