Dog Boarder/Walker

Pet care experience

I’m a long time animal lover who is looking to Rover part-time to fill the gap of not having a pet. Growing up, I always had dogs and would volunteer during the summers at my local SPCA. It was there that I adopted my own dog, a jack russell named Hoover. She passed earlier this year after living 17 memorable years on earth. I Rover’d almost full time last year while living in Colorado and greatly enjoyed my experience of meeting various pets and owners. Now, I’m once more working full time at a regular job and am not in a place to adopt another dog, but would like to Rover part-time instead to fill the gap and help people out during summer vacation.

No one better. Too good. Our dog sleeps by the door waiting until next time.

Tara was just great with our dogs, who are shy and require a great deal of trust in their caregiver. She walked them daily and sent us photo updates frequently and won them over. She stayed in our home and left it immaculate, and even laundered her sheets. Would happily use her again, highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by sticking to their routine. I’m comfortable leaving dogs out in my apartment during the day as long as they’re potty trained and don’t get anxious (i.e. start tearing up furniture etc.) if left alone for a few hours at a time.

Information Tara K. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds and have experience working with high energy puppies as well as elderly dogs. Just let me know if your pet has any special needs and the specifics of their routine so I can keep them on track while they’re in my care.

A typical day

I’m a very active person so I love to take dogs for walks everyday and go explore whatever trails/walking paths are nearby. An active pet is a happy pet.

Availability

I work 5 days a week from 9:30 to 6:30 with a 1 hr lunch break. Since I live in an apartment, I think I’d be best suited to board small dogs (or large dogs that are lower energy) as well as do drop-ins for people in the mornings and evenings before and after work. I live across the street from work so I’m available to check in on boarders during my lunch break as well. My days off are typically Wednesday and Sunday.
