I love walking the PDR neighborhood. I have a 30’ leash for park play. I’m good with playing with toys inside with both cats and dogs.

Pet care experience

I’ve had my own dogs for over 17 years. I’ve taken care of a senior dog through hospice as well as older puppies (6 mos+). I currently have a 5 year old corgi-min pin, and a 2 year old golden mix. I am comfortable administering oral & topical medications.

Tara was great and left notes and was easy to work with! I appreciate the communication and timeliness! She managed to handle Parsley without issue even with him getting off leash on accident. Thank you!!

Tara is wonderful and I suspect my cats love her more than they tolerate me. 😂

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.
