Safety, trust & environment

I have the utmost respect for people's homes and their pets environment. I will clean up any messes caused by your pets but will abide by any and all instructions for what to use and where I can and cannot go in your home. I will have a body camera on at all times when entering your home and if anything feels off I will provide the footage by request.

Information Tara M. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me of any eccentricities your pet may have surrounding their day to day needs so we can keep them as scheduled and happy as can be without their humans being home. Any extra care or needs to be met would be greatly appreciated if written down so nothing is missed!

A typical day

Depending on your dogs needs a typical day could range from a nice long walk in the woods to a short jaunt about the neighborhood. Or if I'm just popping in for a health check and a feed I'll give them a thorough going over to make sure they're in fine fettle and give them a bunch of love and feeding as per instructed and anything else to meet their needs while there.

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my entire life saving in the last few years since my pup passed away. I've dealt with all different sizes and manner of dogs and loved them all. The last dog I had was an incredibly picky eater, had diabetes and had gone blind in his final years so I've had plenty of experience with senior and more difficult dogs. He was also a Samoyed and I groomed him myself so have quite a bit of experience with grooming as well. I do also do fur cuts but I can assure you it won't look beautiful. They will be healthy and happy with no knots or mats but I've never gone far enough with an education to make it look pretty. I can clip claws as well if the dog is fairly tolerant if less so a muzzle must be provided and the dog must be tolerant to the muzzle.

Tara is great with animals! She is very caring, respectful and responsible as well as being sensitive to the individual needs of any animal under her care. She has years of experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits and horses as well as arachnids. I would definitely recommend her for any pet services you might need.

Over the past several years I have had the opportunity to observe Tara’s interactions with various animals and would have no hesitation in using her services should the need arise.

Tara took care of my cat when I went out of town for a fews days. She was responsible and careful and cares very much about animals. I would definitely ask her to watch him again!
