Pet Care for the Whole Farm

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Tara, a lifelong animal lover who has taken care of everything from cats and dogs to horses, goats, chickens, and other poultry - both my own and those of friends, family, and coworkers. As someone who has pets, I understand how difficult it is to leave them in someone else’s care. But I promise to treat your furry (or feathered) family members with the same care and attention I do my own. I will feed and walk your dogs, keep your cat company, sift litter pans, and take care of any number of livestock or farm animals. Additionally, I have experience providing vet care to sick or injured animals while their folks are out of town. If your pet is on a medication or needs special care for an injury, I’ve got you covered. With 20+ years of horse experience, I am also able to recognize early signs of illness, such as colic. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Tara was wonderful with our animals. She came out twice a day for 6 days, through terrible and stinking mud, to take care of a plethora of animals: rabbits, goats, cats, chickens, guinea hens, and 2 horses. One of the goats requires daily supplements, and the horses require twice daily senior mash with a ton of additional supplements to be added which she handled without any issue. Water has to be hauled from the house to the different pens. She even blanketed our 17h temperamental horse. All of this to say it's not exactly easy to care for our 30+ animals, but Tara handled them beautifully and I would definitely recommend Tara for your pets and farm caretaking!

One of the most caring, patient, responsible, and talented pet-moms on the planet. Tara has been caring for animals large and small for just about her whole life. Cannot recommend her enough ❤️

Services I have a small home with a cat who is particular about other animals, so I cannot offer services in my home. Instead, I will care for your pets in your own home. I can also stay overnight if needed.

Information Tara H. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know a bit about your dog’s personality, their likes and dislikes, and whether they have any special needs. Please let me know of any behaviors I should be aware of, too.

A typical day

The activities I do with your dog will depend on their needs. I’m happy to take them on long walks and play their favorite games at the park. Personally, I love walking my dog along the river walk in Dolores. Whatever the activity, I will ensure your dog gets plenty of stimulation while you are away.
