Pet care fur you & them ❤️
Pet care experience
Hey there! I’m Tara. I’m a young professional who moved to Chicago just over a year ago and loving the people and pets in this city! I’m a passionate pet lover with a lifelong history with animals. Growing up with a lively Lab and an energetic Yorkie, I developed a deep respect for understanding each one’s unique needs and personalities. 7 years ago, I adopted my beautiful baby boy Bailey and now share my home with a wonderful cat which really helped expand my understanding of cat vs dog needs. Living in the heart of Gold Coast, I’m in a prime location to River North, Streeterville, and Old Town which makes visiting with your pet easy to accommodate and access, so no need to worry about relying on public transport or a car breaking down! I’m also PAWS approved so no worries if you’re fostering as I can also watch your foster babies. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets so I make it my priority to help you feel secure in leaving your baby in my care and helping make your baby feel comfortable and safe as well. I’m always looking to make new fur friends so let me know how I can best serve you! Looking forward to making yours and your baby’s life fun and stress-free!

Reviews

Tara is a super caring and attentive Rover!! She watched our kitty for his first time home alone and was very punctual, thorough, and dedicated. Her notes each day were awesome and she did a great job reassuring us as new cat parents that our baby was safe and having a good time while we weren’t home. Would definitely book again!


Have booked Tara so many times and she is amazing to my 2 cats. Looking for a sitter highly recommend her.

Tara was a great sitter! As a first time user of the service, I was unsure how it all happened, but Tara answered any and all questions I had, responded to my messages in a timely manner, and most importantly, took great care of my boy. I would definitely recommend her!

Tara was fantastic with our cat! She provided great, detailed updates and took photos that we really appreciated seeing while we were away. We will continue to seek Tara's help when we are traveling!

A typical day
I love to hang out and play with your pet. If they want to just hang out and have some company, I’ll play games with them at home. If they want an adventure, we’ll go on a walk and see all the sights. If they want to cuddle on the couch, I’ll happily cuddle with them! Just let me know what your pet needs - you know them best!

Availability
I’m currently WFH 2 days a week so if booked with adequate notice I can accommodate visits during work hours. Otherwise, I’m always able to check in before or after work hours and I have flexible hours on the weekends.
