Safety, trust & environment

I am very good with doggy and kitty directions and love to take dogs on at least 2 walks a day and make sure to play with the cat friends! Happy to keep up with any training or specific house rules.

Information Talyn B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any accommodations or needs for your pet and how I can make them the most comfortable! I would love to know their habits (energy levels, activities they enjoy, favorite treats, etc.)

A typical day

In the morning, I would feed the dog/cat and take them (dog) out for a quick walk. On weekdays, I would head to school and take the pupper to the park after or play with the kitty! I’d feed them dinner and do some homework before cuddling or playing and having a calm night

Talyn is amazing! My puppy Ru absolutely loves her, and she is both comforting and communicative! Ru has a lot of energy (she’s just a baby), and Talyn takes her on really nice long walks, does enrichments and gives her love. She also is a great communicator and leaves my house looking better than I left it - which is not expected, but such a nice surprise to come home to. She always does the dishes, washes the sheets, etc. I’ve used Talyn 3x now, and this last time my puppy was having some breathing concerns while I was gone. Talyn calmly kept me in the loop on what was going on, but also made me feel confident that she had it handled. She provided updates, great communication and reassurance. Talyn is absolutely my go-to Rover and I’m (and you will be) lucky to have found her!

Talyn was such a pleasure to work with. She was quick to respond to our initial outreach, and worked with our schedule to do a meet and greet. Our pup really enjoyed her, and she completely understood his play style and energy. When she dog and house sat for us over Memorial Day weekend, we got daily updates and photos of our little guy, which was fantastic. When we came back home, the house was super tidy, and our dog was tired out from all the walks and play time he got - not an easy thing to do. :) We would definitely book Talyn again!

Talyn was amazing! Took great care of our 1yo puppy, walked him daily, and sent updates as to how he was doing. She left the house perfectly clean! I would 100% book with her again. She is trustworthy, responsible, a quick communicator, and overall a delight!
