First Rate Dog Auntie

Pet care experience

I've grown up with many dogs, and have taken care of other's pets many times. We lost our sweet boy Gilbert in 2021, and though unable to commit to another adoption yet, I very much miss having a dog in the house, so I am hoping your dog can be my part time furry friend! I only sit for one family at a time, so your one or two dogs will be the only animals in the house, and recieve my full love and attention.

Tara always takes great care of my two papillons. I can tell that they like her very much. Tara provides a very nice and welcoming and safe home for my dogs.

Lily became part of Tara's family and was obviously so loved. Tara sent us photos and videos allowing us to relax knowing Lily was happy and having a great time at her own "vacation home". Tara is always quick to respond and communicates well. We have no hesitation about using Tara in the future.

Tara and her family are so sweet and kind! This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and we felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands. Tara kept us updated with photos and videos of our happy pup. Highly recommend!!
