🐾 More Than a Pet Sitter—A Trusted

🐾 More Than a Pet Sitter—A Trusted Companion for Your Furry Family! 🐾 Your pets deserve more than just someone to feed them—they deserve love, patience, and personalized care while you’re away. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I treat every pet like they’re my own, providing plenty of affection, playtime, exercise, and companionship to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, administering medication, or simply giving them the attention they crave, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved companion is in caring and reliable hands. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels secure until you’re back home. Because pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and family deserves the very best care. ❤️🐶🐱

I had the pleasure of working with Tanacka when she took care of my sweet sweet Kenzo. He could be extremely choosy with his caretakers, but he warmed up to Tanacka in an instant. The way she approached him and introduced herself to him and how receptive he was to her was all I needed to see to know that I chose someone I can trust to care for my pet. In the end, I was completely satisfied. If you’re looking for someone you can trust, you can trust Tanacka.

Tanacka did an amazing job taking care of my two cats. She sent me updates and pictures while I was away, which made me feel so much better knowing they were doing well. When I got home, my cats were happy and everything was exactly as I left it. It's obvious she really cares about animals and took great care of them. I would definitely book with Tanaka again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets.

Here’s a shorter version that includes both the last-minute booking and the constant updates: I needed someone to watch my dog and cat at the last minute after my original sitter had a family emergency. Even though her Rover profile requested two days’ notice, I reached out anyway, and I’m so glad I did! She welcomed my fur babies into her home without hesitation and treated them like they were her own. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos throughout their stay, so I never had to wonder if they were okay—I knew they were happy, safe, and well cared for. She is kind, reliable, understanding, and truly has a gift when it comes to caring for animals. If you’re looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, I highly recommend booking with her on Rover. I’ll definitely be using her again!

We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear that our dog was in caring and capable hands. They kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of love and attention. We truly appreciate the kindness, reliability, and dedication shown throughout the entire stay. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets and will definitely use their services again in the future!

I can’t thank you enough for the love, care, and attention you gave to my kittens. From the very beginning, it was clear how compassionate, patient, and dedicated you are with animals. You treated them as if they were your own, and that meant so much to me during such an important time. Your kindness, professionalism, and genuine concern gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I am truly grateful for everything you did and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets.

Tanacka was an amazing Rover pet sitter! She took excellent care of my dog ( biscuit) and treated him like her own. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Biscuit came home happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time with her. I highly recommend Tanacka to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. I will definitely book with her again!

Schedule

As a teacher, my daily schedule has helped me develop strong time management, patience, and reliability—all qualities that make me an excellent pet caregiver. My workday follows a consistent routine, allowing me to provide dependable pet care before and after school, as well as on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals by taking them on walks, engaging them in playtime, and making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship. During the summer and other school vacations, I have even greater flexibility to provide extended care, overnight stays, or multiple daily visits. Being a teacher has also strengthened my ability to stay calm, follow detailed instructions, and recognize individual needs, which helps me provide personalized care for every pet. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, you can count on me to provide reliable and compassionate care every time.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel relaxed and secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special care requests you provide. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I make sure they have access to fresh water, a safe space to rest, and opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your home as if it were my own. I keep the space clean, secure, and follow any household rules or instructions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for, while giving pet parents confidence that their furry family member is in trustworthy and dependable hands.

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged! Depending on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level, we’ll enjoy activities like walks, fetch, tug-of-war, interactive toys, puzzle games, and plenty of playtime. For pets who enjoy being outdoors, we’ll spend time exploring safe walking routes and getting fresh air and exercise. For cats and more relaxed pets, I provide interactive play with toys, gentle brushing, cuddles, and quiet companionship. I also enjoy reinforcing basic commands with positive reinforcement and rewarding good behavior with treats (if approved by the owner). Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to their individual needs and comfort level. Whether your pet loves to run and play or simply curl up for belly rubs and affection, I’ll make sure they receive the attention, enrichment, exercise, and love they deserve while you’re away. My goal is for every pet to have fun, stay safe, and feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend.

Before caring for your pet, I like to learn as much as possible to ensure they have a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience. Please let me know about your pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, favorite activities, energy level, personality, and any special needs. It’s also helpful to know about any medical conditions, medications, allergies, fears, or behaviors such as anxiety, reactivity, or escape tendencies. If your pet has any specific commands, house rules, or preferences, I’m happy to follow them to keep their routine consistent. I also appreciate knowing your veterinarian’s contact information and an emergency contact, just in case. The more I know about your pet beforehand, the better I can provide personalized, loving, and dependable care that helps them feel safe and at home while you’re away.
