Pet care experience

A marine biologist with land legs!

I have been in the animal care industry since 2017. Before that, I owned my own pet care business in highschool and college! I specialize in animals with unique care requirements and exotics. Fish tanks, reptiles, and creepy-crawlers are welcome! Additional Fees: I do charge a $10/animal “invasive” medication fee. This includes injections, rectals, or orals that have to be administered by hand into the mouth. I also charge a $15/tank “exotic” (including fish, reptiles, amphibians, insects, arachnids, rodents, etc.) animal fee. These additional fees are non-negotiable, thank you for understanding!

Safety, trust & environment

As someone who has worked with large animals I know when it’s their party and when it’s mine. Reading animal behavior has been an important part of my job for 5 years.

Tanner took great care of our cat while we were out of town. Very communicative and even handled giving our cat her inhaler for asthma.

House Sitting • Mar 30, 2026

Tanner took great care of our Labradoodle, Higgins, and our home for a 5 consecutive overnights! He was very responsive and kept us up to date on Higgins's activities with adorable photos. Tanner did a great job maintaining our guidelines for Higgins and training routines too, I felt relief on our trip knowing our fuzzy guy was in great (and professional) hands for an extended period. I'll definitely reach out again in for future trips. :) Higgins keeps asking when he'll get to see his friend Tanner again, haha. Thanks, Tanner!

Tanner was amazing. Extremely communicative and always kept me up-to-date on Murphy and what was going. I really appreciate all of his patience and understanding with the unexpected plumbing issues with the house; he was extremely thorough in keeping me in touch helping out. Excellent! Great sitter.
