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.

Information Tamakia C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any routines, medications, allergies, behaviors, triggers, or special instructions ahead of time so I can make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

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.

Pet care experience

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! 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 is hands down the BEST dog sitter ever! While my husband and I were out of town, she took amazing care of our Yorkie and treated him like family. She kept him safe, healthy, loved, and completely spoiled with attention. I had total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. And let’s talk about her prices. Absolutely unmatched for the level of care she gives! You can truly tell she loves what she does. I will 100% be using Tamakia every single time we travel. If you need someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to watch your fur baby, she’s the one!

I’ve known Tamekia for years, and trusting her with our two elderly, anxious pups was always an easy decision. She cared for them while we were out of town and treated them like her own, which gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated regularly, and it was obvious from every message and photo that they were happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for. It’s not easy finding someone you can fully trust with your pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will make their fur babies feel safe, loved, and right at home.

If you want someone who will treat your kids like her own, Tamekia should be your go to babysitter. She is an incredible manager and friend. Her animals are her whole world. You would be lucky to have her. I have known her for years and love hearing about how she spoils her kids. She really is a great soul!

Meme was amazing with my cat, Chanel, while I was away on a work trip. She followed all care instructions, kept Chanel’s routine consistent, and sent regular updates with photos that really put me at ease. I came home to a calm, happy cat — always the best sign. I highly recommend Meme as a sitter for anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive.
