Loving care when you aren't there

Pet care experience

I am a big animal lover, I spent 3 years volunteering and fostering for an animal shelter Anti-Cruelty Society in Chicago and when I moved to Colorado 4 years ago, I started fostering here. Occasionally, when I have any work travel coming up and my foster animal gets adopted, I like to help out great doggie or kitty parents like yourself. I am a very experienced caretaker (dogs, cats, and even any rodents and birds!). My work trips and also a passion for traveling during my personal time would not allow me to be a responsible dog owner just yet, that is why I volunteer, foster, and do Rover so I can get the love for animals out of my system. I only host one doggie (or several from the same owner) at the time so they can have my full attention (be comfortable) and there are NO conflicts. My place is ideal for boarding senior doggies or those that are scared of other animals, children, etc. Also, I have a lot of experience with dogs that are reactive or simply not friendly with other dogs. But of course, I will be happy to take care of an active, friendly and children-loving cuddly four-legged friend, too. I am very active myself (hike or do a short run almost every day), it depends on your doggie's activeness level if they want to join me in my outdoor adventures or not. They can also comfortably stay back home while I get the energy out of my system. My partner works from home just like me, so he is usually around if I go out for a short hike or run while your baby stays in my house. As someone who works 100% remotely, I am home for most of the day and your doggie will not be left alone for more than three to four hours (while I run errands, do hikes or have occasional outings in the evenings). Also, as a European, I do love walking! No matter what weather condition it is, so if your doggie needs somebody to get them tired, send them my way! They can have a little BootCamp with me! :-) I have experience with pretty much every breed, you name it... and aside from doggies, I used to be a kitty owner and have plenty of experience with those as well as various different rodents and farm animals. If you are looking for somebody responsible, loving, and caring for your four-legged child, contact me. Happy to do a meet & greet, too.

We booked Tana last minute and it was our first time using Rover. She was perfect and super understanding to all our questions! Our Lilly loves to hike and walk and Tana took her on so many wonderful walks! She sent us multiple pictures every day and you could see how much fun Lilly was having with her! Tana is super helpful with Lilly’s needs since she has experience with all types of dogs. We were so happy with our experience and Lilly was too as she stopped to give a goodbye lick to Tana at the end of the stay! We will definitely use her anytime we need a Rover stay!!

Tana was amazing with our two dogs who were extra challenging with it being their first stay away from home but she provided us many updates and pictures of all of the hiking and trails she took them on and tired them out. You can tell how good she is with and how much she cares about dogs.

Tana was absolutely amazing! This is my first time using a dog-sitter and our dog Ranger had the best time. Tana was sure to make Ranger comfortable right at drop off. She has so many toys to play with. She messaged me throughout the day with pictures of Ranger playing and on their walks. I highly recommend Tana! We will be using her in the future.

At our meet and greet, Duncan expressed his typical "stranger danger" display, but Táňa was not phased and connected with Duncan almost immediately. At drop-off, I was very comfortable leaving him in her care. She reviewed the "care and feeding" instructions I left and asked pertinent questions indicating a healthy level of concern for his well-being. After their hiking adventure, he was tired and ready for a long nap, but not before whining a bit as if to say, "But I don't want to leave her!." I'm sure he's looking forward to his next stay.

Information Tana R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how they walk - do they pull on walks, do they walk next to you, behind you? Just want to know what to expect and how you train them so I can just keep doing what you're already doing. I would also like to know their regular routines such as walks and eating schedules. Also, do they need any meds? Where do they normally sleep and hang out? How many miles are they able to walk or hike?

A typical day

I live right next to a beautiful and huge forest in Woodland Park, so that is always the first place that every doggie guest in my house loves to explore. Other than that, I hike 3 - 4 times a week, so as long as your doggie can keep up with me, I am happy to have them tag along!

I work from home, so can move my hours around as needed and will adjust my days to your four-legged baby! :-) I am also very active, so happy to show them some great trails around Woodland Park, where I live!
