Highlights
Pet care experience
Irish dog lover on Upper East Side!
I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves long walks, quick potty breaks, or just a calm stroll around the block, I’ll make sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I’m reliable, communicative, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I’ll treat your dog like family and provide real-time updates, photos, and a summary after each walk. I’m comfortable with leash training, basic commands, and special needs dogs too. Let’s meet and see if we’re a good fit — I’d love to walk with your pup soon!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I absolutely love walking dogs and find it one of the most relaxing things to do as soon as I’m done with teaching every day!
Ratings and reviews
She is EXTRAORDINARY! Words can not do her level of professionalism and love of our dog Goose! She treated Goose and us just like family. She was kind and understanding...we tried to not be late for meeting which is hard in NYC with 3 children..She is the best fit for any situation!
Miley had a great time with Tara! She was responsive and communicative throughout the day. Really appreciated the last minute assist.
Tara has been amazing with Lion! She’s been flexible and understanding of Lions needs and anxieties. Thank you!
Tara was amazing with my dog Bailey! We always love doing daycare with Tara and will definitely be doing it again soon
Tara was great -- Roxy's first time with a dog sitter and no problems at all. Would definitely book again. Great communicator!
Tara M. cancelled a booking 5 days before it was scheduled to begin.

Schedule
I work as a teacher so I am available before and after school which makes me very flexible! I exude great patience from working with children and dogs are no exception :)
