Your Pet's Safety Is Our Priority!

Pet care experience

Hello! We're Tara and Melanee. Safety has always been our top priority. We require meet and greets prior to any new bookings to make sure it’s a good match. Experience I (Tara) am a holistic practitioner, energy healer, and entrepreneur who works full-time from home. I have grown up with pets all my life and have the ability to connect with those who are anxious or anxiety-prone. My wife and I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and can work easily with rescues, elderly, and those with chronic conditions who need medication. We are both calm and very patient individuals, which is important for making your pet(s) feel at ease when in our care. About Us Tara is a holistic practitioner. When she’s not meeting clients and tending to her furry friends, you’ll find her brainstorming her next business idea, reading books on mindfulness living, meditating, or obsessing over health and wellness documentaries. Melanee is an Associate Dean at a university. When she’s not working on projects or in meetings, you can find her reading a good novel, gardening, watching Dodger highlights, or reruns of Schitt's Creek.

Tara was extremely patient with our Kermit who can be nervous about new places. Our dogs were able to play together a lot! She sent me lots of updates during his day care stay. Will certainly use her services again!

Tara, Melanee and Benny were great with our high energy pup Fauci. We feel very comfortable leaving him in their care. We’ll definitely connect with them when we need another sitter.

Our pup, Sylvie, had daycare with Tara and Melanee for the first time and our experience was great! Their energy was easy and calm, Sylvie was comfortable upon meeting right away and Benny (their dog) is such a good boy!- very good at matching Sylvie's energy. Throughout our time away, Tara was very communicative, sending photo and text updates. Sylvie had a walk, enjoyed new scenery, and was a happy pup. We definitely recommend and plan on coming back. Thank you, Tara and Melanee!

Tara was communicative and thorough. We had a lovely meet and greet before booking and it helped put me and my puppy at ease for his first time away from home. Great experience!
