Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a home available for boarding. But I have home/dog sat for friends in the past. For dogs that require more care, I have experience working with a fixed eating schedule, medications, and daily walks. I take a client-centered approach to house/dog sitting. Each dog and home environment is different.

Information Tam N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your do cannot be alone for more than a few hours each day. I work a fixed, 9 to 1 schedule.

A typical day

Each dog is different, so I like to meet the dogs where they are. For senior dogs, I'd love to cuddle on the porch and people-watch. For younger, more active dogs, I'd like to take them on long walks and explore the neighborhood. I don't have a car, but I do have experience transporting dogs with Uber Pets.

Ready to befriend your furry friend

Pet care experience

Big dogs. Small Dogs. I love them all! My love for dogs started with my family's dog but soon expanded to every dog I've met. For the past few years, I've regularly taken care of my friend's dogs while they are out of town. Whether it's walking, playing, or just plain old couch potato-ing, I take an individual approach and meet dogs where they are. I will gladly send you pictures and videos of your dogs. I'm also happy to stay and play with them!

Tam is the absolute best. She sends us SO many pictures and updates throughout her stay, even if it’s just one night. We trust her completely with our home and with our doggie!

Tam did a great job taking care of our dog for a week! She was very detail oriented, spent lots of quality time with our dog, and was a great house guest!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
