Pet care experience

The care I provide is one of a kind. This isn't just a part time gig but a job that allows your pet/pets(family) be with someone who will treat them as if they were my very own.I've had over 15 years of babysitting even for puppies/dogs with special needs through the day. I love going on walks and adore puppy cuddles.The most important thing to me is to see if your fur baby will actually bond with me I prefer that they feel comfortable left alone with someone new. Some added bonus is that I make treats that are pet friendly. We live near a dog park and I have a fenced in backyard.

She treats my baby like she’s hers. Always sweet and polite. I felt like I could trust my Hannah with her from the moment we met. I wish she could watch Hannah every time I’m away.

After meeting Taquisha I felt completely at ease leaving Hannah with her. I was on a cruise and without phone service so we communicated through WhatsApp and she made sure to send me updates on how my baby was doing. I have already rebooked with her and would definitely do it again.

Taquisha was wonderful! She took amazing care of my dog Roger and sent pictures throughout the stay. Would highly recommend to take care of your fur baby!

I’m currently a stay at home wife due to my husband being in the military and constantly moving. With that being said I have a lot of time on my hands.
