Pet care experience

Fur babies get my full attention!

Reliable boarding, house sitting and check-ins with lots of love and attention. Why pet parents love booking with me • Work from home—pets get lots of attention • Quick responses and easy communication • Daily photo & video updates • Reliable, dependable care • Comfortable with dogs and cats • Plenty of walks, playtime, and affection • I treat every pet like family Whether your pet is staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, my goal is simple: I want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I work from home, pets in my care aren't left alone for long periods. They receive frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them), and lots of supervision throughout the day. When you're away, you'll receive regular photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and the reassurance that your pet is being cared for like one of my own. I'm committed to keeping your pet's routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! Big friendly giants, tiny fur babies, and everything in between—I’m here for them! 🐾💕 I only care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention. Please contact me for any questions or to set up a meet and greet! ❤️

Tamakia was awesome, so sweet with my Nova and she was super communicative! I really appreciated her updates. She took great care of nova and I felt totally at peace knowing my pup was being taken care of :)

Tamakia was ABSOLUTELY awesome! We were soooo nervous to use this app for the first time and she went beyond her duties. She updated us all day with pictures and videos and even spent her own money on things she didn’t need to. Our babies were well taken care of and loved on the whole time she was just the best!

Tamakia was very great with communication from the start. She gave my dog the attention he needed and sent updates and pics throughout his stay. He received plenty of outside time and was able to make himself at home during his stay.

Tamakia was absolutely an amazing sitter for our fur babies! She kept us up to date with everything and sent us pictures/videos and went above an beyond what she needed to do. We did not have to worry about them not even one time. We definitely will be getting her again to watch them!!!

Schedule

Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.

Pets

A typical day

Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. Throughout the day we'll enjoy potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet loves to play fetch, lounge on the couch, or simply have someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive the attention and care they're used to while keeping their routine as consistent as possible.
