Information Tara A. would like to know about your pet

Please always be honest with your pets requirements/behaviours. I will always try my best to cater for your needs within reason. Please bear in mind there are children and 2 animals that live here so if you are aware your pet has a severe dislike to children/animals please consider another more suited sitter. Safety must come first.

If your pet requires more or less activity this will be catered for according to their needs. I am happy to spam you with many updates/photos or none at all if you wish to switch off whilst away.

Pet care experience

From toilet/command training puppies to caring for elderly dogs with dementia. I have a great deal of knowledge and experience. I also have experience in Raw diets for dogs with sensitive stomachs and skin issues. I can adhere to your diet routine. Maximum hygiene kept and bowls washed immediately after finishing. I have an above average size garden with patio and grass which backs onto the woods which has great walking routes for outdoor fun with the dogo’s. Grass is spot checked regular and mess cleaned straight away. All dogs will be treated like they are my own whilst in my care.

Couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Tara was caring, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. My baby settled in straight away and came home so happy she kept me updated thought out with pictures and videos would highly recommend

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
