Availability

Pet care fits into my daily routine quite naturally, especially since I'm a homemaker. In the mornings, I start the day by feeding my pet, refreshing their water, and taking care of any immediate needs like a walk. During the day, I can check in often, whether it's a quick play session, a midday walk or just making sure they're comfortable. In the evenings, I follow up with another feeding, more play or exercise, and some bonding time like petting or brushing. I live right next to a dog park, so the dogs can also enjoy some social time during their stay. Overall, having a flexible schedule helps me stay consistent with pet care and make sure the pet gets the attention they need.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pet care is focused on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. Since our house is one floor with low stairs, it’s especially easy for senior pets or those with mobility issues to get around. We don’t have a fenced backyard, so all outdoor time is supervised, either on a leash or with close attention to make sure pets stay safe. I have a gentle and friendly 15-year-old dog who gets along well with other pets and helps create a relaxed atmosphere. I make sure all pets have fresh water, regular feeding times, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For dogs, I provide supervised walks and outdoor breaks, and for all pets, I offer playtime, cuddles, and a clean space to rest. Whether caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and a consistent routine to help pets feel secure and loved.

Gentle, Trusted Pet Care at Home

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both senior dogs and young, energetic puppies. I've cared for my own dog for 15 years, so I understand the patience, attention, and special care that older pets need—whether it's slower walks, medication routines, or simply offering comfort and companionship. I’ve also babysat young dogs for relatives, so I’m familiar with the playful energy and consistency needed for puppies, including basic training, crate routines, and helping them feel secure in a new environment. My home is calm and pet-friendly, and I take pride in giving each animal personalized attention based on their age, personality, and needs. I treat every pet like family and strive to create a safe, loving space they can feel comfortable in.

Tanu is great! She took good care of our 6 year old Ace for a day. She loves your pet like it’s her own. Ace is picky with his eating habits and spoiled I should say, but she was very concerned when he skipped his meal. She followed all our instructions and sent us pictures of Ace more often than we expected. He was very happy at her place. I would use her services again without any hesitation and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an excellent sitter for their furry. Thank you so much Tanu for taking care of Ace!

Tanu is amazingly kind and caring. We left our 15 year old Tibetan Terrier with her - on the first day he was not happy and a bit disoriented - she took care of him with loving hand. By day 2 he was so relaxed, happy and not anxious to come home with us when we went to pick him up!! In would completely recommend Tanu to care for any dog at any time.

This was the first time leaving Latke, and Tanu made me feel comfortable from the start. I received photos of my dog as well as videos 2-3 times a day, which also kept me at ease. I would highly recommend her.
