Safety, trust & environment
When providing overnight pet care in your home, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort every step of the way. Your pet stays relaxed in their familiar environment, enjoying consistent routines, personalized attention, and loving companionship throughout the night. At the same time, I treat your home with the utmost care—keeping it tidy, secure, and respected as if it were my own. If needed, I have an air mattress to bring and my own necessities. Additionally, I always come prepared with a Pet First Aid Kit, extra leashes and collars, poop bags, and have safety tethers in my vehicle for safe transportation.
Ratings and reviews
Tara cared for my pups like they were her own
Tara was a wonderful Housesitter! She graciously accepted our last minute request and was very accommodating to the slightly complex care schedules of our cats and dog! She was even able to administer a new medication to our dog on less than a day’s notice. She also responded quickly to all messages which helped us feel at ease on our trip. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean house. We couldn’t ask for more!
Tara was wonderful with my young, high energy border collie. This was my first time using Rover and she put me at ease with her professionalism and timely communication throughout my trip. Tara goes beyond requirements. She looked after my chickens as well and I came home to a beautifully groomed, relaxed dog and clean house. I highly recommend her services!
Cannot say enough good things about Tara. She was loving, caring, conscientious, and overall pleasure to watch my Harley. I am so grateful that she could come on short notice and really cares about people and the animals she takes care of. I would definitely use her again in the future!
Tara took care of our 1 year old energetic girl. We had her groomed while in Tara’s care. Not only did she come home happy but she also came home with the most beautiful coat and smells great! Highly recommend Tara for your boarding needs.
Tara was wonderful with our corgi, Percy! He had a great time, and we got regular updates while we were away. Plus, his fur and nails are in better shape than ever. We'll definitely be boarding with her again!

Schedule
Monday through Friday I work 8am -4pm with the option to do some remote work from home. Depending on the distance from my work located in Waterford, CT I am able to take lunch breaks to let pets out for a potty break if needed. On weekends, I am completely available for pet care around the clock.
