Pet sitting for all creatures

Pet care experience

I have had pets my entire life and have been pet sitting for several years. I understand how difficult and expensive it can be to find someone trustworthy and affordable to entrust our animal family member with. My house is set up so that your pet can either have their own space or have the run of the house. I have a fenced back yard and walk daily, either around the neighborhood or hikes. I am comfortable with all types of pets; I currently have a dog , turtle and fish but have had bunnies, lizards, cats , mice, rats, guinea pigs and more! I am also available to petsit seniors and special needs pets. I look forward to meeting you and your family. My dog Oscar is a senior and is used to all sorts of canine friends staying with us as well.

Tamara was excellent!! She has such a calming way about her and my dog felt completely at ease. She will be watching my dog when I go to Europe next month!

Tammy is absolutely incredible. She is gentle, kind and so loving to our GS, Emma. Our sweet German Shepard is shy and uninterested in other humans besides het mom and dad :)… to our surprise, Emma ended up cuddling with Tammy daily during her stay. This was our first time away from Emma in six years that we felt completely at peace because we knew Emma would be so loved.

Our two dogs loved staying with Tammy! Her house had a back yard for them to play and she took them on walks. She sent us pictures of the dogs playing and kept us updated on how they were doing while we were away. Tammy will be our go to sitter from now on!

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.
