Cat care as well!!

Pet care experience

I know how worrying it can be to leave your precious animals behind and in someone else's hands, but know that you can rely on me to keep your pets safe and happy during each visit. Caring for pets involves a great deal of commitment and responsibility, values which I uphold and convey to all clients when in their service. Your pets will be treated with love, respect, and be given full attention when they're with me. Furthermore, I recently received certification in Pet First Aid and CPR through Pet Emergency Education, an accredited program recognized by veterinarians, rescue shelters, and disaster response teams nationwide. Whether you're out for the day or just too busy, let me tend to your pets and provide them with plenty of love and exercise to keep them happy and well behaved! Visits can include walks, feeding, change water, play time, empty the litter box, and other minor household duties if needed. I look forward to further serving my community and helping you out with your pets!

Tara did a great job dropping in to take care of my kitty while I was away! She sent lots of picture updates and my shy kitty even came out to play with her. I came home to bowls of clean water and fresh food. I will definitely use Tara again when I'm going out of town and can't take my fur baby with me.

I go out of town often and Tara is always willing to spend time with my main squeeze, my cat Chuck, while I'm away. She's friendly, professional, and really goes above and beyond with her services.. she doesn't even mind cleaning out the litter box! She'll always be my go-to gal when it comes to a pet sitter. Highly recommend.

Tara is an awesome dog walker and I highly recommend her! She was able to handle all 3 of my dogs (2 huskies and a border collie) without any issues. Now I have some happy, sleepy doggies. ??

Tara K. has taken care of our pets (dogs and cats) on and off for about 10 years. She is kind, reliable and careful (even observing things that I had not, i.e. flues or a sore paw, etc. Tara K. is just a very good sitter.

Information Tara K. would like to know about your pet

No breed, size, or age restriction, however, I need to know how your dog reacts to other people or animals out on walks. I do my best to avoid other people or dogs while out and about because I want to ensure their safety. I also need to be aware of any medical issues or allergies and will need to obtain your vet's information just in case of an emergency. Will not walk overly aggressive dogs.

A typical day

Your pets will have my undivided attention during visits. If your dog is high energy, I would be happy to go for 2-3 mile runs to tire them out as much as possible. Walks will be done in your own neighborhood. If you have a yard, I'd be happy to throw some toys around as well. Whatever your need, I am here for you and your pets.
