Availability
I work from home and I love taking the pooches on walks during my breaks. I wake up pretty early and love walks before work. After work, I usually give them another long walk and play tug war or fetch if they want, then we settle in and relax for the night.

About Tania B.

Safety, trust & environment
I am usually home with them unless I have to step out to the store which is usually because they ran out of treats! I always walk them on their leash/harness. I try to prep my home as safely as I can but I always ask my clients to verify if everything looks good or if they need me to adjust/move anything.

Information Tania B. would like to know about your pet
Definitely let me know if your pupperson has any special needs or if they prefer one thing to another, I understand they are your babies and I will treat them as mine to make sure they feel safe and happy during their stay. I have recently started hosting 2 doggies at a time (safely introducing them before they are allowed to play/cuddle). I will always check with both families to make sure they are ok with it. If you want your pooch to be the only pup here, I’ll make sure of that as well!
A typical day
I love playing around with dogs and cats, inside and outdoors. Cuddles are welcomed. If your pupperson is a couch potato, we can relax together; if they are energetic and like to explore, I am all for it. I have 2 parks less than 5 minutes away and a nice, quiet neighborhood and a small front courtyard (not fenced).

Pet care experience
My first pet was a hamster named Cushito, he stole my heart. I then met Kc Babe, a sassy Pitbull that grew, learned, cruised and explored with me. Johnny Flash, the turtle made his appearance in my life about 12 years ago and he's still in charge. Not soon enough, the princess arrived, Chowlie Coconut, the guinea pig. Last but not least, my soulmate and inspiration to open this space, Kikster Morrison, the blind/deaf, senior pup. She taught me patience, style, and love. I have had experience with different types of animals all my life and even worked at an veterinarian's office for a couple of years. I am currently working from home so I can be very attentive to their care. My neighborhood is quiet for short walks a few times throughout my work day. I have a big space right in the back of my building to run around and a park near by for any walks after 5pm. There is an open space behind my building where our local dogs sometimes walk. There is also a park a few minutes away. I usually don't crate pets unless you request so. I can walk them or keep them inside. I am familiar with giving medication if needed and have some experience with a senior/disabled dog.
Reviews
Tania is such a blessing!! I always feel super confident that my dog will be well cared for while in Tania's care. She is super responsive and sends picture updates to keep our mind at ease. We will continue using Tania's services and highly recommend her to new clients!

I am so appreciative for Tania and how she takes care of my dog, Mia. Mia is always happy to see Tania, and sometimes is sad when I come and pick her up! Thanks again Tania for taking such good care of my girl :)

Tania is an AMAZING sitter and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone to look after their pet! She’s always been incredibly reliable and communicative, and is also very accommodating to care instructions we give her. My dog, Mia, is quite the anxious girl, but she is always so calm around Tania. Tania takes excellent care of Mia, and we get tons of pictures and videos everyday:) thank you again Tania!!

Tania was so great to our doggy, Maca! She took the time to meet her and understand her crazy energy. She kept giving us updates and stay in touch during the time with Maca. We will definitely work with her again ❤️
