Wanna play? I'm Sidney, an adorable, friendly, playful, welcoming pup who loves to have doggy friends over. You can share my toys, beds, yard and human's love and affection. I can vouch for the fact that she's pretty good at handing that out. I put up a fuss when it's time for our nail trims or other treatments, so she's very gentle with me. I'm sure she will be with you too! She also shows me the world, which keeps me in tip-top shape. We head out on hikes and walks all the time. If you're more low key, it's cool if you want to just chill on the couch, on the sunny deck, or one of our beds. Join us! $20 off your first stay!

Ratings and reviews
Another great day with Tamara and Sidney! My puppy bounds out of the car when we show up at her house and comes home happy, tired, and well-taken care of. She is amazing!
Tamara is a fantastic dog sitter!! She watched my 10 month old golden retriever pup for a week, and my dog had an awesome time playing with Tamara's dog, Sidney; running around in the yard; and getting lots of attention and snuggles. Tamara was very communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates. As an experienced sitter and dog owner herself, she also had useful advice to offer, which is great because this is our first dog. Tamara has a lot of gear so we really just had to bring our pup's food and leash over, which was a nice bonus. Our pup came home happy and well cared for, and can't wait to go back!
Tamara was very accommodating for a last mintue reservation. We appreciated her flexibility. Calliope takes a little extra care to win her over--Tamara did an excellent job. Tamara's pup Sidney got along great with our pups. I would highly recommend her she is warm and caring and knows her stuff when it comes to dogs.
Tamara was so thoughtful and helped me out with my pup on a days notice. She’s got a great, fenced yard and her energy is very calming. Her sweet pup Sidney is also wonderful. I felt very good leaving my Popcorn with her while I was at work. We will definitely be seeing Tamara again. 💚
Tamara was great from our first meet and greet. She put me at ease with her calm demeanor and her knowledge about dogs. Kahlo is a newly adopted dog so I am still anxious leaving her with others and Tamara answered all my questions and also shared knowledge about dogs which I still desperately need. She was quick to respond to my texts and gave me updates throughout the day. I felt at ease throughout my workday. Kahlo spent the day playing with her dog, Sidney and was happy and tired when I picked her up. I am very thankful I found Tamara. She is a true gem.
Tamara is the best!!

Schedule
I’ve been a lifelong pet owner, caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years. My current family includes Sidney, my Doberman, and Avery, my cat, so pets are a natural and constant part of my life. I build daily routines around their needs — feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles — and always make sure every pet in my care gets consistent attention, exercise, and love throughout the week.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs. Every dog in my care gets plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and treats. They have full access to the couch and chairs, and depending on the dog, my bedroom as well. I also have a fully fenced yard, which is perfect for potty breaks and energetic play, especially for dogs who need to run and chase but can’t be off-leash on trails or at the park. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved, whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting their home.
Pets
A typical day
Depending on what the pups like to do and activity level, you can expect your dog to have 3-4 mile walks and hikes during your stay. If your dog likes to relax a bit more, he or she can lounge in my sunny yard or the deck.
