Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Lady Who Also Loves Dogs!
I have a 55 lb loving soul named Penny. I love coming home from work and there she is, excited to greet me. Walking dogs is relaxing and a great bonding experience. Car rides and dog parks are just the best.

Safety, trust & environment
I have one dog and a semi-feral cat. My pets are a part of the family and are allowed on furniture and beds, and very much welcome to take naps with me! My pets are well-loved and I give them my full attention. I enjoy walking my dog as much as she does. I am not squeamish at all of picking up poo in a bag and carrying it back home. Litter boxes - part of my life since I was a small child. I have much experience in that department. I love cats and dogs!
Ratings and reviews
Tanja is the best! She makes sure to clarify any questions and is so attentive.
Tanja and Rover were both wonderful. I would go so far as to say Tanja was the best petsitter we have ever had. She showed up right on time for the meet and greet with a pen and paper in hand ready to take notes. My cat warmed up to her right away which really eased my nerves on using a new petsitter and service. She was there right on time for each service and stayed for the required amount of time if not longer. I could tell that she definitely took the time to play with my cat as toys were moved around and in creative areas where Groot could entertain herself while she was left alone. I would not hesitate to use Tanja again.
Tanja was great to work with and took care of my cats very well.
Tanja is great! Super diligent and communicative. Thanks for your help!
100 out of 5 stars! Tanja watched our cats while we were out of town for a week, and she was absolutely amazing. Leaving our pets and home in the care of a complete stranger was nerve-wracking at first, but when Tanja came to meet our cats, she immediately put us at ease. She took notes, asked thoughtful questions, and it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. We could tell right away that they’d be in great hands while we were away. Even our shy cat loved her by the middle of the week! She went above and beyond by watering our garden, bringing in mail and packages, and handling the trash (even after a raccoon got into the trash!). Her daily photos and notes were so reassuring, especially since this was the longest we’ve ever been away from our cats. We came home to a spotless house and very happy cats. We’ll definitely be using her again anytime we go out of town and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Tanja's caring knows no bounds! As a mother of two, devoted wife, school teacher, and cat mom, Tanja has the biggest heart. I've known her for over 20 years as a devoted pet mom. When she visits my home, my dogs love her and want to be by her side, and she shows them the same love and affection she shows her own pets. She is conscientious and reliable, and would take care of anyone's pets as if they were her own!

I am currently a teacher in Charlotte, but will be pretty open once classes and graduation are over on June 14th. Except for one week in July when I will be on vacation, my schedule will be wide open until mid-August. Let me care for your pet while you relax!
