Pet care experience

Hi to all mutual animal lovers! I have joined Rover to help you find an honest and trustworthy person to take care of your fur babies. We are a family of four. My Two teen children are Dog crazy so will love your four legged friend as their own. My neighbors always rely on me to look after their two dogs when they are on vacation or working late. I am experienced with senior care and am happy and confident to give medication or any special dietary needs. I am home all day so you can be assured that your Dog will be free to be inside or outside as much as they like, cuddle, play or go for walkies!

Highly responsive and provided daily updates. Willing and able to deal with some unexpected developments during the trip. Dogs appeared to love them and were taken care of. No complaints.

Tammy was absolutely wonderful with our energetic Cardigan Corgi, Tilly, and we truly cannot thank her enough! She cared for Tilly for 9 days while we were on vacation, and from the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely confident that she was in excellent hands. Tammy kept us updated throughout our trip with thoughtful messages, pictures, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun Tilly was having. It was obvious that she wasn’t simply being watched; she was genuinely loved, cared for, and treated like one of the family. Tilly had the BEST time playing with other dogs and clearly had the time of her life. When we messaged Tammy that our plane had landed, she had Tilly all ready to go, which made coming home so easy. Tilly was completely worn out when we got home and slept for hours! The next day, she seemed genuinely sad that she was missing her new friends, which says everything about how happy and comfortable she was during her stay. Tammy gave Tilly a true home away from home, and that is exactly what you hope for when trusting someone with your beloved pet. We are incredibly grateful for the love, attention, and excellent care she gave Tilly. We would recommend Tammy without hesitation and will absolutely be booking with her again. Tilly may have been happy to come home, but I think she would happily pack her bags and go back to Tammy’s tomorrow! ❤️🐾

Tammy and her family did an outstanding job taking care of our pup. She calmed our nerves with all the wonderful pictures and comments she sent daily. He came home looking better than when we took him. We will definitely use her again.
