Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a lifetime animal lover and currently have three fids: a dog (Arlo), cat (Auggie) and a B&G Macaw (Corona, a.k.a. "Trouble"), though I have had many other kinds of pets in my life. I am reliable with a flexible schedule and am not intimidated by L/XL, overly-zealous or “difficult” pets (pulling, excitable, scared/nervous, mouthing, poor social skills, etc.).
Reviews
Tara is such a wonderful dog sitter - reliable and communicative and our dogs love her. We always come home to them happy and with new toys! It’s such a relief to be able to trust their care to someone like her any time we’re away.
Great sitter. Ellie always loves her visits. Recommend very highly.
Tara is very reliable and a great communicator! She is great with my cats and their different needs and personalities! Very glad to have found her on Rover!
Tara did a wonderful job as always!

Since I have had many pets in my life, (many living very long, healthy lives: 10 dogs, 11 cats, five Luv-Buns, 10 birds of all sizes (S-XL), three turtles, two iguanas, two pet mice, many types of fish, and many, many fosters, including a pot-bellied pig) I can handle any type of pet you have. In addition, I have previous vet-tech experience. I wipe out bowls and give fresh water before leaving and make sure your house is in the same condition (or better) before I do. To ensure that I am able to take care of your pet(s) and home as well as you do, I will always ask for a detailed care sheet, regardless of how recently we had our meet & greet.
Information Tara M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pet’s temperament, activity level, social interactions with people/other animals, and instructions on how to properly care for your pet(s): feeding and potty schedules, medications and any other information you think might be helpful and/or important. Again, I will always ask that you leave a detailed care sheet as well. I am also open to meeting first to see if we would be a good fit and go over any details. Please reach out if you have any questions. Thanks! **Please note that I am unable to do daytime-sittings for less than the hourly rate for drop-in visits. In addition, my service area is within 15mins of the Cedar Bluff post office.
A typical day
Seeing animals happy makes me happy and I love to play with dogs/cats while they're in my care! I respect whether you want to have treats given to your fid or not and will check with you before offering any of my own. I also offer 15min car rides around your neighborhood during a walk or drop-in for an additional $10.

Availability
My schedule allows me to be available most any time of the day, many times within a few hours of requests. Overnight stays are no problem so long as I have a clean place to sleep and can leave during the day to take care of others and my own.
