I have experience with insulin injections, kitty inhalers, pilling, ear pens, and administering medications through oral syringes

Information Tanya L. would like to know about your pet

It’s good to know their temperament, what upsets them, what interests them, if I should be aware of allergies, food sensitivities, if they get along with other animals, how they like to walk them, if they need shoes, if they can only go a certain distance, if they’re allowed on the furniture, all that jazz :)

A typical day

I’ll play fetch, go for a walk with them, go to a park or a dog park, pet them and love them. Tug of war, anything!

Pet care experience

***if you would like a 15 minute visit, I can modify the price to $11** Hello! I’m Tanya! I am 30 years old. I’ve had cats my entire life and have taken care of dogs for 4 years. I have worked with multiple animals almost every single day now over the years, and I don’t plan on stopping! (squirrels, guinea pigs, bunnies, chinchillas, chickens, turtles, snakes, fish, lizards, and birds included) I have worked for a company as a dog walker and sitter for 2 years. I’ve had over 2,000 visits. I know what it’s like to want to keep my pets safe and not worry about them when I’m gone. I always do everything I can to make sure all the animals I watch are cared for. ❤️ I love sending cute photos to pet parents, it’s my favorite thing. My storage is full of them on my phone. 😆 Your privacy is also important, when I’m staying in your home, I value your space and belongings. I recommend indoor cameras! I will always leave a place better than I found it. 🧼 A little about me: I am an artist. Graphic design, paint, marker, pencil, etc. I have a small business making beanie hats on Etsy. My biz is called Pretty Cool Beanies. 😎 (you can find me on instagram if you’d like to see even more about me 😄) I’ve worked with some local coffee shops, breweries, bands, etc. (Wildflyer, Wild Grind Coffee, CanCan Wonderland, etc) I am NOT a smoker. 🙅🏽‍♀️ 🚭 Disclaimer: I do have many tattoos, but don’t let it fool ya, I’m a TOTAL softie, artsy gal. Not scary; I promise! 😋😆 LGBTQ FRIENDLY 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈❤️ I hope you choose to book with me! ✨

Tanya did an amazing job watching our girls for the last few days! She followed all of our routines to the letter, kept a close eye on their meal times, and took wonderful care.

I trust Tanya to take excellent care of my cats when I’m away. She gives them the time and attention they need and is attentive to medical concerns. Tanya goes above and beyond, and I recommend her without hesitation!
