Pet care experience

Loved like they are mine ❤️

As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve been surrounded by furbabies for as long as I can remember. Right now, our home is a mix of three cats and two dogs—it’s a bit of a zoo, but we wouldn’t have it any other way! With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve turned what began as occasional pet care for friends into a job I genuinely love. I pride myself on being dependable, trustworthy, and committed to providing the best level of care for your pets. You can rest assured—they’ll be in great hands. My rates are fair, and I offer care for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, chickens, fish, and even hedgehogs. Visits consist of feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after pet, playtime, and, of course, lots of affection. I’m also happy to water plants and feed fish as needed.

Tara is wonderful! We left Teddy with her for 2 weeks! Tara took good care of Teddy and made him feel so comfortable and loved that he was himself in no time at all and running her household (as Yorkshire Terriers often do)! Tara went above and beyond in making sure he ate and was happy! Tara kept us informed every day making us also feel comfortable. Totally recommend Tara to take care of your pet! Thank you Tara!!!

Tara took great care of our high energy dog and was excellent at communicating with us. She even set up a sprinkler for Kai to play in during a hot day.
