Pet care experience

I'll luv your fur babies as my own

About Me I have a deep love for animals and years of experience caring for them. After losing our family dog of 15 years, I spent two years fostering pets. While I’ve chosen not to commit to a permanent pet due to future retirement plans, I still enjoy providing a loving and safe environment for animals through short-term fostering and pet sitting. I also care for my son’s dog on weekends, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. What I Offer When your pet stays with me, they’ll enjoy: A spacious, secure backyard with a doggie door for easy indoor/outdoor access Cozy pet beds and a variety of chew toys A treat jar (with your approval—no rawhide) Plenty of love, attention, and playtime Your pet’s happiness is my priority! Have worry-free travel and peace of mind knowing your furry baby is in caring hands.

Tammy was amazing throughout Harley’s stay. She alleviated any concerns I had with leaving my 14 year old love bug. She provided many photos and was extremely communicative throughout! Will definitely book again!

Tammy was absolutely wonderful with Macie! She took such great care of her during the 5 days she watched her, and it was clear from the start how much she genuinely loves dogs. Tammy kept me updated every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Macie was happy and well cared for when I came back, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Tammy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!

Tammy watched our pup for us for 2 nights. She was responsive to my questions and flexible when scheduling. Tammy provided updates and pictures to us while he was there. Tucker was well cared for and treated like he was part of the family:) We would not hesitate to let Tammy care for him again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in backyard with a dog door that can be opened or closed. I do have my sweet grandpup (who was a foster) a couple of times a week and is used to all dogs and cats. We go to Woodstock Dog Park, so she has others to play with. I have one large crate and one med crate. I only crate if I'm out running errands and if your pet needs to be crated for safety and security reasons. Our family dog loved to lie in his crate while we were gone or he was napping with the door open, so I know that some pets feel safer with an open door crate. I will discuss with you and your preferences. My grandpup does not use a crate anymore at anytime but she is now three.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. My preference is for pets that get along with others and enjoy playing with other animals. If that's not the case for your pet please let me know so that I can make sure he/she is the only pet for their stay with me.
