Information Tanzania S. would like to know about your pet

Feel free to let me know if your fur babies have any special needs or specific behaviors to be aware of. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can care for them and keep them happy and comfortable! 😊

A typical day

When caring for cats, I provide interactive playtime using their favorite toys to keep them engaged and active. For dogs, we’ll have plenty of fun running around and playing with their toys too. If the weather’s nice and your dog enjoys the company of others, we can head to the dog park for some social time. If they prefer a quieter setting, we’ll enjoy a trip to a regular park for a good game of catch and one-on-one play.

Your fur family, my fur family!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Tanzania! I’ve been caring for animals for over twenty years, through both personal and volunteer experience. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with both dogs and cats—including walking, bathing, grooming, training, raising, and of course, sitting. I’ve also volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I walked dogs, cleaned cages, fed the animals, and helped care for both dogs and cats in need. Even though I’m not a current pet owner, I bring years of experience, I have a genuine love for animals and treat every pet I care for like family. Whether your pet needs a cozy overnight stay, a fun walk, or some playtime and TLC while you're away, you can count on me to keep them happy, safe, and loved.
