Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet care with love and extra treats
I've been pet sitting for friends and family for over 15 years, and I love caring for animals of all kinds. As a nursing student, I'm dependable, attentive, and comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering medications and caring for pets with medical needs. Most importantly, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my sweet golden retriever. Whether your pet wants extra playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy companion while you're away, I'm happy to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home. 🐾💛

Safety, trust & environment
I’m familiar with crating with pups, or if you’re open to letting them sleep wherever I would happily keep them in my company. Daily walks for dogs and lots of toys and cuddles for both kitties and pups. I believe in treating all animals like they’re my own, they deserve that kind of love and attention always :)
Ratings and reviews
Tara was amazing, made me and my dog feel so comfortable and accommodated my requests to help my dog get familiar with her beforehand! Left me great notes and photos to help me while away from my pup
Thank you so much! Appreciate you working through the barking. Leela is a work in progress.
Tara was fantastic! She stayed overnight in our home to watch our two high-energy pups, a Rottweiler and a French Bulldog while my husband and I were away. She was extremely communicative, reliable, and responsible the entire time. She checked in regularly and sent us photos, which really helped us relax and enjoy our trip. Her sweet dog Louie came along too and was an absolute love, he played so well with both of our dogs and fit right in. It was such a relief knowing everyone was happy and getting along. We can’t recommend Tara enough and will absolutely be using her as our regular sitter moving forward!
Tara did a wonderful job with our pups! They seemed to really enjoy her, and she them!
Tara has been absolutely fantastic as a dog walker. Her communication was too tier and my parents dog absolutely adores her! I would not hesitate to hire her again and again.
Tara is the best!!! Highly highly recommend

Schedule
I recently went back to school for nursing so I’m filling in caring for your pets around my class schedule so I’m highly flexible. I have a 2 yr old golden retriever, who is the best and would come with me if you’re interested in dog sitting in your home overnight. He loves all dogs and is very well behaved in the house :)
