Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable and Experienced Sitter
As a lifelong pet owner, I have cared for both dogs and cats, gaining valuable experience along the way. Currently, I have a rescue dog who requires specialized training and attention due to her anxiety and reactivity. Caring for her has taught me patience and equipped me with skills to work effectively with high-anxiety dogs. Before her, I had the joy of raising an easygoing pup who lived a long and happy life. These experiences have given me insight into the full spectrum of pet parenting. My background enables me to provide your pet with the utmost care and attention, ensuring their safety, happiness, and comfort while you’re away. I’m committed to creating a stress-free and nurturing environment for your beloved companion.

Safety, trust & environment
I will provide your pet with the highest level of care, ensuring they are safe, well-cared-for, and loved at all times. I am committed to following your instructions precisely, maintaining their routine and meeting their needs without deviation. With that said, unless I am explicitly instructed to not provide a type of physical activity (walking, playing, tug o war etc) due to medical conditions, I will prioritize regular walks as I strongly believe mental stimulation is a key to your dogs happiness’ health and longevity.
Ratings and reviews
It was smooth to rebook with Tamara! She kept notes from her previous visit and took great care of our pets. We couldn’t be happier :)
Tamara is excellent! She took time to do a meet and greet with Cosmo and I prior to our first drop-in, she was on time for his hour long visit and provided a great update on how things went. Cute pics too! Thank you Tamara!
Excellent care. We could not be more pleased oyr puppy super loves her!
We really appreciate the kindness and care you gave our puppy! Thank you. We hope you can come back the next time.
Tamara was amazing with my often difficult pups. She was competent, caring, and kept me informed of everything going on with my dogs. She really went above and beyond for us and I am so appreciative. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone!
Tamara did a great job checking in on our kitties and making sure our diabetic cat got her insulin after she ate. It was such a relief to leave and know they were taken care of!

Schedule
I work from home in a flexible role, which allows me to accommodate your schedule for in-home house sitting, drop-ins, and walks. Your pet’s needs will always be a priority!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsTamara can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- If your dog is territorial or reactive, it’s important to share that information ahead of time. Let me know if they benefit from anti-anxiety medications, calming treats, or collars, or if they prefer specific high-value treats. It’s also helpful to understand any behaviors they exhibit when stressed or acting out, as well as any food allergies they may have. Essentially, anything that someone unfamiliar with your dog should know to provide the best care is greatly appreciated!
