Pet care experience

Pets are in experienced hands

I have worked as a Veterinary Technician for over 10 years, and then started dog walking pet-sitting for more than 10 years now. I have experience with animals of all sorts, sizes and temperaments, including timid and semi aggressive dogs. I will gladly walk your dog as well as feed and care for your other pets (including cats, rabbits, rodents, chickens, etc.) I can even bring in the mail, water your plants, clean litter boxes and make your house look lived in while you are away. I always treats pet(s) as a part of her own family, and will email or text you pictures while your away to assure you that your furry family member is receiving the best of care.

Our flight was delayed and we were late getting back. Tammy was so accommodating and understanding. She took away any stress involved with our fur baby!

I hired Tami for a short, albeit somewhat higher-need visit for my two cats. One of the cats had simple needs, but the other needed daily medication and monitoring of a wound. I hired Tami specifically because she advertised herself as a vet tech, so I felt comfortable that she would take care of these needs. I would have normally canceled my trip, but it was for work, so I couldn't Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Tami after this experience. When I came home, a few things were not in the condition I would have liked. The litter boxes were half empty and not very clean, despite leaving a brand new bag of litter out on the counter. This was especially bothersome because one of my cats had an open wound on his leg that was healing. One of my cats' water bowls was nearly empty, even though it was a large fountain and she had just been there earlier in the day. However, my real issue came when my roommate mentioned that Tami did not seem to stay for very long. This prompted me to check my security cameras, and I realized that she fabricated all of her visit cards in all but one. The most egregious was a visit when she claimed to be present for the full 30 minutes, but actually only stayed for 9 minutes. This is barely enough time to give my cat his medicine and put food in his bowl, let alone tend to two cats, clean litterboxes, and give them a little attention. I paid Tami for two cats, and I was told she never interacted with or did anything for my second cat (who did not need the medication). In total, during a 3-day booking, Tami claimed to be present for a total of 45 minutes that she was not actually there.

Tami’s love for cats and her sense of responsibility came together for a wonderful experience. I could tell from the photos she sent that Kallie and Maia were happy. I will definitely book her services for any future travels.

Tami was so helpful for a last minute walk for our dog Bogey. She was quick to respond and took lots of pictures!
