Pet care experience

Insured, caring Pet Nanny!

I am a recently retired public school educator, having served as a psychologist and student service director. I retired to care full time for my mom, for two years. I am now looking for something meaningful, and fun, to do, and I believe caring for your pet(s) is it! I have had horses, dogs and cats in my lifetime. I have cared for the pets of family members and friends. I will be available from April thru October in the Nelson area of NH and November thru March in the Clearwater area of Florida.

I'm super pleased with Tamara. She fell in love with my Phoebe and I felt the love! I'll definitely use her again!

This is the second time Tamara has watched our Labradoodle. This year he enjoyed a luxury vacation at her lake house, including boat rides with a doggie life jacket. He was in heaven. I highly recommend Tamara. She communicates well, sent photos, and most importantly loved and cared for our dog.

House Sitting • Aug 06, 2025

Tamara was wonderful! She helped us out in a pinch, when our sitter was not able to watch the dogs last minute, and saved our vacation. She not only took great care of the dogs, she gave our puppy her first boat ride! I highly recommend Tamara has a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

Tam was great with our dog Brady. She made sure to get all the details of his daily schedule and special needs. She was communicative throughout the week and sent lots of pictures. We were able to enjoy our family vacation and Brady was returned to us calm, happy, and very relaxed !

Tamara took great care of Archie! He was very happy to spend time with her and is looking forward to returning. Archie's human parents appreciated Tam's excellent communication and the photos!

Safety, trust & environment

I have no pets currently, and no children in our home. I do not have a fenced in yard, but do live on a lake in NH which is great for walks and boat rides! In Florida, I live in a condo complex that allows smallish dogs, has a doggie play area and is across the street from the beach.

A typical day

When caring for a dog at my house in NH, we can walk around the lake, go for boat rides and even go for a swim if your pup likes the water! In Florida, we have a doggie play area and lots of space and nearby parks for walks.

Please let me know if your dog as any special needs and/or behavioral challenges so I can accommodate for those. When caring for dogs in my own home, I'd prefer dogs that don't shed or shed minimally.
