Pet care experience

Health & Wellness is my specialty & working with dogs is my ultimate passion, drive, & gift! I am a Certified Dog Behaviourist & Obedience Trainer, as well as a & Certified Personal Trainer, so I really can ensure that the dogs get the proper amount of exercise and mental stimulation they require. If you hire me to walk, board, visit or train your dog, I can help to encourage good manners, with positive reinforcement and nurturing ways. By a regular regime of exercise & obedience work, even if it’s minimal, the reoccurrence will help your dogs mental & physical health to be in good balance; the foundation to creating a calmer, happier, reliable, obedient dog. The dog that everyone enjoys to have around! I provide dependable, interactive, 1-1 service for my clients so you can feel confident that your pet get individual attention and be in caring hands. Whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, or training session, I’ll happily send photos and text updates of your cute animals, whatever suits you best!! For fun I can even make your pet an instant star on Instagram :D I believe that every dog has great potential, so I also offer unique 1-1 in-home Obedience & Behavioural Coaching for Dog Owners.

I have know Tara for several years. I have witnessed her amazing ability working with dogs from shelters, rescues and from family's. She is a caring, nurturing, trainer whose love for the animals comes shining through. Definitely highly recommended.

I had the opportunity to meet Tara working with her at a kennel facility in Oakville. She’s such a warm and caring person and brings light to every room she walks in. She is really good with dogs and dogs just love her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing dog care or walking because she would treat the animals just like they were her own. I was very lucky to have met her and we became very good friends. She is always there when you need her and I would feel at ease knowing she was caring for my dogs

Tara is wonderful! Our dog Luke is blind so we're very picky about who cares for him. Luke enjoys his walks with Tara while my husband and I are out working all day. We get an update and pictures of how his walk is going. Tara is a sign of relief for us!
