Pet care experience

****Please take note about Smokey Joe!! If there is a problem, just give me a heads up about it, so I can make arrangements. I want to be sure everyone is comfortable! I would love to give your furbabies some TLC! I have no size or breed restrictions, I like and love them all! I have been tending to a wide variety of pets for most of my life and find great enjoyment in it. That is not limited to average pets, including small to medium livestock! I prefer that my care and attention to detail show in my work. I have yet to have a complaint, as long as it is made clear what the preference is and I plan to keep it that way. I will not only treat your furbabies as my own, I will actually treat them BETTER than my own. I absolutely love to see my clients completely satisfied and looking forward to the next appointment. Whether the job is to groom, walk, sit or just check on them, I am ready for the task! I am also a trainer as well, if your pup is slightly out of sorts, I am willing to help straighten them out. I actually trained my girl, Reilly, to be a service dog (as pictured) and will have my next trainee, Smokey Joe (also pictured), with me, laying behind me as I groom. If you request a house sitting, he is accustomed to sleeping in the tub! Again, if this is a concern, please let me know ahead of time to allow me to make appropriate arrangements. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies!

My fur baby was taken care of and that's what counts. Definitely need to communicate every detail of expectations, to include the arrival time (apparently that's not the time booked, which is news to me). Once we were on the same page, everything was good.

Tamara has been grooming our Emma Rose for over 10yrs now, and Roscoe’s whole 5 yrs! They just love seeing her come through the door. It makes my fur mommy heart so happy, to not have to worry about them, when we are traveling. Thanks so much Tamara!

We were gone for a week. Our animals and home were fine upon return. My only real concern was that this was the second time that she was late getting to our home on the first day and our puppy had to wait longer to be let out as we had a very early flight out of the country. Both times I called and woke her up.

We can't thank Tamara enough for the care and compassion she showed while watching our three dogs, especially during such a difficult time. Our beloved dog Fawn was on hospice care, and Tamara handled her with the utmost tenderness and respect in her final days. She made sure Fawn was comfortable, loved, and well-cared for, which gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. In addition to taking care of Fawn, Tamara also did an amazing job with our other two dogs, Frank and Larry. They were happy, and clearly loved during her stay. She went above and beyond to ensure all three of our dogs received the best care possible, and we are forever grateful.
