Since I’m studying from home, I have the flexibility and time to give dogs my full attention throughout the day. My own dog has set a great routine for me—morning walks, playtime in the nearby fenced parks, feeding, training moments, and lots of cuddles in between. I love staying active and making sure dogs are both mentally and physically stimulated. Whether it’s short potty breaks, long sniffy walks, or just hanging out together while I study, caring for dogs blends seamlessly into my day.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, pets have a cozy and safe environment to relax and play. I have a crate available for those who are crate-trained or need a quiet space to rest, along with plenty of toys to keep them entertained. I also have access to two fully fenced parks just a short walk away, perfect for playtime and exercise, plus a fenced front porch for fresh air and people-watching in a safe spot. I keep a clean, calm space and follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that means meal schedules, medications, or snuggle time. Your dog will be treated like one of my own!

Information Tanya R. would like to know about your pet
Since I have a friendly dog of my own, it’s important for me to know how your pet does around other dogs—especially in shared spaces. I’d love to hear about their temperament, energy level, and any triggers or quirks they might have. It’s also helpful to know their feeding schedule, crate habits, medication needs, and how they do on walks. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home here.
A typical day
It really depends on the dog’s personality and energy level, but some of our favorite activities include park playtime in one of the nearby fenced parks, enrichment games with toys or treats, and fun training sessions for mental stimulation. For puppies, I love working on basic commands in a positive, playful way. If your dog loves cuddles, they’ll get plenty, and if they’re high-energy, we’ll burn it off with fetch, tug-of-war, or structured walks. I always aim to keep them happy, engaged, and loved!

Foster Fail Mom, Puppy Specialist
Pet care experience
I have hands-on experience fostering rescue dogs for the past two years—especially puppies. I’ve helped rehabilitate malnourished, abandoned dogs and guided them into loving forever homes. My own dog is a foster fail I nursed back to health at just 2 months old after she was found on the street. Since then, I’ve fostered an entire litter of five puppies, all of whom were successfully adopted. I specialize in caring for young dogs and have a deep understanding of their needs—whether it’s feeding, socializing, crate training, or just giving them the love and patience they deserve. That said, I truly adore dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m currently studying from home, so your dog will never be left alone, and I live near two fully fenced parks for safe, fun playtime.
Reviews
We are SO happy we found Tanya! ❤️ She watched our little Olive while we went to a concert and was just the sweetest with her. We felt completely comfortable knowing Olive was being loved on and well taken care of, which means everything to us. So grateful for Tanya and already looking forward to seeing her again soon! 🐾❤️
Tanya was wonderful. Took great care of my princess! Would highly recommend.
Tanya was wonderful with my dog, Nori, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again. She took such great care of my dog while I was away and made the whole experience completely stress-free. Throughout the stay, Tanya sent frequent updates with lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She took Nori on regular walks, kept me informed about how she was doing, and communicated right away if anything came up. I always felt like Nori was in caring, attentive hands. Tanya was thoughtful, dependable, and incredibly communicative from start to finish. I came home to a happy dog and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Tanya is so loving and caring for our Bailey! Baileyn loves her and looks forward to seeing her!
