I am currently a stay-at-home-mom to three boys, 6 and under, so I am almost always home to hang out with kids and pups! The boys LOVE to go for walks, so we have no shortage of outside time - weather permitting.

Safety, trust & environment

Pups receive regular walks, water breaks and lots of love and pets. We will pay careful attention to things owners mention like putting trash cans high-up and keeping our furry friends away from other dogs.

Information Tara K. would like to know about your pet

The only things I really must know before a dog stays in my home is whether or not they have any aggressive and/or destructive tendencies or if they are escape artists. Also, please keep in mind that we have three boys 6 years old and under, so jumpy dogs may not be the best fit for our family.

A typical day

We will go for walks in and around my apartment complex. We also have a good sized dog park to throw balls in and sniff around. Your dog can expect lots of love and pets and the ability to lounge where they please. Depending on owner preferences, we may occasionally visit a local park, preferably with fenced yard space.

Pet care experience

I take on caring for sweet puppers in my spare time. I am a stay-at-home-mom to three sweet boys, 6 and under, and we love to play with pups and go on walks with them 💖 My partner, Travis, will help care for your furry friend if I must run an errand while your dog stays with us, but I will be the primary caregiver. It is very rare that we are all out of the home at the same time, and if so, it is never for long. I am comfortable administering medication as needed. I can care for any breed, however, some I cannot watch in my own home. I love tiny floofs, big lap dogs and everything in between. I have had a number of pets throughout my life and have loved every second of being around them. Pets are an important part to any family, big or small, and we look forward to looking after your pups and ensuring a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in while you are away. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you and your pup! 💖 -Tara

We had a wonderful experience with Tara as our dog sitter! She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated throughout Charlie's stay. Her sweet nature and the love she showed for our pup were evident, and we could tell Charlie was having a great time. Her adorable children also adored Charlie, which made our hearts smile. We truly appreciate the care and attention they all gave him. We highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!

I think this is our fourth time with Tara. My furry baby Mojo was about a week at her home, and exceptional care was provided for my dog! Tara's home was warm and inviting, creating a loving atmosphere. My dog was treated like family and received personalized attention. Highly recommended!
