Information Tara H. would like to know about your pet

I’m happy to take care of any pet. I’d like to know a bit about their behavior, listening skills, diet and preferences, especially of type of activity.

A typical day

Will take dogs walking, hiking, swimming, Mtn biking (if they are able), skiing (if they are able). I will make sure to play with them and show them a lot of love. I love dogs. I also love other animals and will play with other animals like cats and bunnies (whatever animal you have).

Great tails adventures with me!

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats and dogs and love watching, playing, and caring for all animals. I have years of experience taking care of cats, dogs, and small farm animals i.e. goats, chickens, etc… I am an avid outdoor woman and world traveler who speaks four languages. I enjoy spending time with a good pup in nature whether it is on a trail run, bike ride, a lazy afternoon in the park.

Tara was terrific. Augie came back happier than ever after all the fun activities they did together. Highly recommend Tara.

Tara is an incredibly responsible, mature young woman. She is physically very active and took my Golden Retriever Colby on wonderful hikes (a tired dog is a happy dog!) I recommended Tara to dog sit a neighbor's dog, and they were very pleased with her work. Your pet will be in great hands with Tara!

Tara has stayed with our dogs multiple times anywhere from a few days to multiple weeks -- she is wonderful. She's friendly, responsible, neat, kind and just generally an awesome person. The dogs seem to love her and she's very active so they get a lot of exercise. I'd highly recommend her!

Tara absolutely loves dogs and treats them with all the care that they deserve! Her active lifestyle allows her to provide lots of exercise and companionship for both her own pets and those in her care. She goes above and beyond to make sure that pets are well-loved while their parents are out of town! I wholeheartedly recommend Tara for any pet sitting opportunity!
