Let Me Love Them When You Can"t

In my life I cannot really remember a time that my family did not have a dog. But my love for animals does not end at the 4-leggeded variety. I truly love any animals and have always felt some kind of emotional connection to them. Over the years I have taken care of my own pets as well as others pets too. My first love was my dog Kipper who I adopted from the shelter. He was a lab mix and was with me for almost 16 years. After he passed, I felt empty but knew someday I would love another. About four months later I was perusing the Human Society website and they had a Chocolate Lab that was in need of a home. Needless to say, I found my next doggie love. Her name is Kona and I could not imagine my life without her now. (Kipper would not mind 😊) Kona has now also passed away but Kiwi is my newest love. If I am taking care of your beloved, I will love them just like I love my own. We will go on walks, regardless of the weather. Kiwi also loves to play catch and has about 20 different balls to choose from. If it too hot to go outside, we will just snuggle on the couch and read a good book. except of course at pee time. I have chosen to be a Rover sitter because I love animals more than people, on most days, and this job affords me the freedom to be at home while supplementing my military disability pay. There is nothing that puts a smile on face faster than a dog with a ball and a wiggly behind. If you trust me with your babies you will not have to worry. And they will be excited to keep coming back. P.S. Even though I do not have a yard be assured they will get walks at a minimum of every two hours or as needed. Kiwi and I both also love all the kitties of the world!

Had the absolute best experience with Tammie. She is a genuine animal lover and sincerely caring person. My kitty, Juneau, felt very comfortable with her and was authentically happy to see her. She played with him, gave him needed attention and took the cutest pics. Greatly appreciated her consistent contact, updates and eased my guilt of being away. Would highly recommend.

Tammie took wonderful care of my cat! She asked thoughtful questions, communicated consistently, and regularly sent adorable photos. It’s clear she loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would absolutely recommend her!

Tammy was awesome with our dogs. They liked her right away, which is not normal for them. She took them for walks & gave them lots of love. She was also on time. If we are back in Bisbee, she will be our go to dog sitter.

Tammie is always the best. She’s one of the only people I would trust with my animals for weeks at a time. She takes such good care of them and takes amazing care of the house too. She’s wonderful!!

Tammie is an amazing pet sitter! My dogs were so happy I don’t think they even noticed I was gone, which alleviated my biggest traveling anxiety. Receiving pictures from Tammie every day of my dogs having fun with her wonderful pup, Kiwi, always made me smile. Not only were my dogs in good hands but she took great care of my home too. I will definitely be traveling again soon knowing I can leave my fur-babies in her capable hands!
