dogs are the best animals on earth!

Pet care experience

My name is Tara and I’m a senior at Western Washington University! I’ve had golden retrievers since I was 8 years old and I adore all animals and I’m excited to meet many new special pets! The beautiful golden in my profile picture is my little princess, Indie, and she’s a small five year old who I love to spoil and is my favorite part of everyday. She lives with me full time, and my roommate has a young male australian shepard - they are best friends! All dogs and cats deserve lots of love and affection and to have someone to play with, which is what I would provide for them with drop in visits and walking. Whether they need to be fed, let out, exercised, played with, or even just have someone to hang out with I can cater to you and your pets needs and preferences! I also am able to take your dog to a dog park nearby if they enjoy playing with other dogs! Message me with any questions, I’m very flexible!

Tara knows her canine tips and tricks! I have a fairly anxious dog and she gave all the love and safety necessary for a weekend of balance - outdoor outings and burrowing indoors under blankies. She is energetic and communicative and Rover-wonderful.

Tara was a great host for our corgi, Friday! She provided regular photo updates so we could see how much fun our pup was having. Would definitely recommend!

Our dog Cedar was so happy to stay with Tara! She took her on walks and was very responsive when we contacted her about Cedar's stay. Would definitely recommend Tara!

A typical day

My dogs love the park the most; any place where they can get off leash and sniff to their hearts content! I try to regularly switch up where we go to provide more stimulation and interest, and places with water access are our favorite. On a typical day, my two dogs spend a lot of time making a mess with their toys and playing with each other between naps and their daily exercise outing.
