Information Tanis K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors. I prefer to host dogs in my home that are friendly with other small dogs. For visits to your home, I'm not afraid of dogs with personality quirks. I volunteer in rescue and am familiar with all kinds of behaviors.

A typical day

We have a large, securely fenced back yard that dogs love. We can also provide toys and kongs for entertainment. Our home is in a walk friendly neighborhood with multiple route options available.

Pet care experience

I have loved dogs since before I could even talk. I got my first dog when I was six, and have been caring for them ever since. From working at a boarding kennel in my youth to doing rescue transport as an adult, I've always believed that each dog is an individual that deserves the best care possible. I currently have 4 small dogs of my own, and usually have a foster or two as well. I do rescue transport of dogs ranging in size from a Chihuahua to a mastiff, so no breeds are off limits. I used to volunteer as a dog walker for bully breed rescue, and I am capable of handling large strong dogs. I'm also happy cuddling with the littles. I Love them all!

Tanis was prompt in communication and was flexible when I asked if she was able to push back her drop in time. I appreciated the photos and review of how my dog did, giving me piece of mind while I had a long day away. Will definitely rebook with her.

Tanis has been taking care of Roxie for almost 3 years. She is the most kind and compassionate caregiver. Roxie had been aging quickly recently and started medication which Tanis was able to administer. She’s ver attuned to senior animal care and I highly recommend her! Thank you for taking care of Roxie all of these years.
