Information Tara B. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know how a dog interacts with not only other dogs but other people. Strangers, small children and bikes are all things that are important to know a dogs reaction to before walking in populated areas.

A typical day

I love taking walks through the neighborhood if I am able to as well as local parks. Love doing whatever activity is your pets favorite. Seeing them have fun makes me so happy.

Loving care for your pet

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs for friends and family for a number of years. I currently work at an Animal Hospital , in the past I worked at Dogwood Acres Pet Retreat in Annapolis, Md as well as several other daycare facilities (Just4Paws Philly, Dogtopia AZ). I gained a lot of knowledge and experience from working in these places, from pet first aid to reading dog body language. I have experience with small and large dogs also with calm and aggressive dogs. I rescued a dog in the past, brought her back to health and found her a new home. I feel that gave me great experience with handling a new dog and all aspects of caring for one. I have a huge love for dogs of all kinds and love caring and helping with them anyway I can. I have experience caring for young puppies and senior dogs as well. I can administer medicine or address specific diet needs if necessary. I also have experience with other animals including exotic pets and farm animals. I can care for other animals if needed.

We booked and paid Tara for a first time "meet and greet" with our cat, in anticipation of using her in the future. She showed up on time and was pleasant, etc. then she told us she would be moving out of the area in a few weeks so unless we planned on using her service right away she would not be available. What was the point of our meeting her then? It would have been nice to have known this in advance so that I could have booked the visit with someone else.

Tara really understands dogs. From the first meeting through the entirety of the stay, it was clear that she knew how to approach, work with, and make my protective dog very comfortable in her home.
