Loving home away from home
Pet care experience
I’ve loved animals since before I could walk and I’ve spent a lifetime caring for them. Having worked for the CASPCA I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge about what it means for our pets to truly thrive and what they need to lead happy healthy lives. Our family treats your pet like they’re our own and make him/her feel right at home. They will spend their days with tons of enrichment activities; daily walks, tons of play time and endless snuggles if they’ll let me and so much more. This is my passion, loving animals and helping people. What more could you ask for? I would absolutely love a chance to chat with you and answer any questions you have.
Reviews
Tamara and her family were very welcoming to our dog. I think Mia had a lovely time.
Tamara did a wonderful job looking after our little dog. She was very responsive and reassuring. She provided us with updates and pictures and made us confident that our Jenny was being well cared for.
Micki and Skye enjoyed the weekend with Tamara and her family. They even gave Skye a little birthday party for her second birthday. We know the pups enjoyed their stay because they slept the entire day after we picked the up. It was a pleasant experience for all of us. We would trust them with our pups again.
Tamara was amazing in a really stressful situation with our pup when he ran outside and hid from her. She was communicative, found a solution, and ensured they were safe and home quickly. We are so thankful knowing she cares for our dogs like they were her own!

All interactions with your pets and ours will be closely monitored to ensure everyone’s safety. I will get information from you about your preferences and schedule for your pet so I can mirror that while they are staying in our home. I will do everything possible to make your pet happy and comfortable while you are away!

Information Tamara T. would like to know about your pet
I do not have a breed preference although I’m a sucker for a small dog. Big dogs have a huge place in my heart as well. I need to know how your pet reacts with having their leash taken on and off, how they interact with other animals, how will they do on car rides, etc. I’ll also ask you about their typical day at your home as well as their feeding schedule to make sure I am able to make them feel at home while they are here.
A typical day
We will go on walks in the neighborhood, dog parks or even hiking if that is something you are okay with. We will learn new tricks, I will encourage positive interaction with other animals in a very safe and structured way in addition to helping them work off their extra energy. Pets are welcome on our furniture if they want a break from play or even if they are just a major couch potato!

I’m a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to care for your pets during the day/at night just as you would if you were home! I can adjust our schedule to fit your pets needs so they feel right at home and stay on routine.
