Information Tanya B. would like to know about your pet

I grew up with dachshunds and currently have a jack russell. I have been midwife to a birthing cat! I love all dogs, cats, animals! What is your pet's favorite toy? Does he/she know any tricks? Is he/she a runner? Is your dog allowed to have doggie ice cream or carrots? Does he/she sleep in the bed or a dog bed or crate?

A typical day

We have a large area to walk around in and can throw a ball or stick around or cuddle. I like to meet the doggo and see what he or she likes to do. I am an excellent ear scratcher and hip massager.

Clean homes & happy pets!

Pet care experience

For housesitting stays of 3 nights or more, I include a FREE light cleaning as well! Who doesn't love coming home to a clean house!? The housesitting stay is based on a *24 hr day*. For example, if I'm coming to start the housesit around 3pm, the 24 hr day would end roughly around that time on the return date. We can communicate the times per your needs, but if more time is needed, I will need to add the drop-in fee. ***I love to bring my dog clients some treats, and my brush that really helps with shedding! Please make sure to let me know if your dog has requested this! 😉 And please let me know if there are any special dietary restrictions!*** I love snuggling pets and playing with toys or going for walks. Many dogs have told me I give the best ear scratches and massages. I enjoy being outdoors and like to find new trails your dog will love to walk! I have been a lifelong pet owner and lover. Dogs usually love me right away. I've been called Dr Doolittle more than a few times and I've convinced a lot of kids I can really speak to animals. ***I organize homes during the day as well, but due to the Covid shutdowns, my schedule has changed a bit. For housesitting, I will stay with your pet at night, but may be in and out during the day. Please let me know ahead of time if your dog needs to go potty outside during the day and cannot be left for around 4-6 hrs (when I have organizing/dog walking jobs or family-related errands)! ***I organize homes during the day as well, but due to the Covid shutdowns, my schedule has changed a bit.

I may occasionally consider a potty trained dog who is good with my kids (future vets) and my jack russell (he is super sweet). My home is set off the road quite a bit and I always keep your dog on a leash.

Tanya took great care of our dog, Greta. She is a bit anxious usually but was instantly comfortable with Tanya who obviously knows how to connect with animals. Tanya took great care of our house as well and left it sparkling clean. We appreciated the frequent updates & pictures she sent and won’t hesitate to book her again when we need dogsitting!!

Tanya was unbelievable. She not only took care of our three dogs including a puppy, but she cleaned our house and made it a wonderful place to come home to. Can’t say enough about her. Fantastic job.
