Pet care experience
Dependable Care for Every Tail
I’ve been pet sitting through Rover for over a year, and I’ve been fortunate to earn the trust of many wonderful pet owners. In addition to my Rover experience, I’ve spent years caring for dogs for family and friends, becoming the person they rely on when they need someone dependable. I’ve cared for my sister’s diabetic dog, carefully following medication and feeding schedules, and I’ve looked after my in-laws’ dogs while they were away, making sure they received plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or needs extra medical care, you can feel confident knowing they’ll be safe, comfortable, and well cared for with me.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medications, or playtime—and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and send updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to treat your home with respect and your pet like family
Ratings and reviews
Tara-Lynn is awesome! She took great care of our German Shepherd Dogs and seemed to really enjoy spending time with them. She made sure they got outside plenty and played with them to get their energy out. We already booked with her again! We really appreciate your time! Thank you!
Tara-Lynn was great! She took care of our puppy while we went and did activities while on vacation in VT. She was super flexible about time and location and our puppy loved her. Thank you Tara-Lynn!
Tara was great with our cats. She made sure that they had everything they needed, while respecting their shy natures. Tara was also extremely communicative, thorough, and responsible. It was a great relief to know that Bart and Walnut were so well looked after while we were away.
Tara-lynn was amazing! She stayed at my house with my two kittens and gave great updates! She came out before I left so she could meet the cats and get the lay of the land. She was also very flexible with my schedule. I would 100% have Tara-lynn stay with my babies again!!
Tara was wonderful! She did a great job taking care of all our animals while we were away. She ensured everyone was fed, had clean water and took their medication. We will definitely be using her again!! Highly recommend!
Tara-lynn is great! She did drop in visits for my dog and 2 cats while I was away for a few days. My dog Kayla is getting older and has some extra needs, especially when her normal routine changes. Tara-lynn took care of everything and the house looked great when I got home. I will definitely be booking her again soon.

Schedule
Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and love making time for in my weekly routine. During the week, I’m available for pet care after 4:30 PM, including evening drop-ins and dog walks. I’m also available throughout the weekends for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I enjoy being able to give pets the attention, companionship, and care they need while their owners are working, traveling, or simply need an extra hand. My schedule allows me to be flexible, and I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and needs.

- It’s important for me to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs ahead of time. This includes their energy level, favorite activities, and whether they’re shy, nervous, or reactive in certain situations. I also like to know if they have any medical conditions, allergies, or need medication. For walks, it’s helpful to know how they behave on a leash and how they do around other animals. The more I know, the better I can care for them like they’re my own!
