Experienced and loving dog groomer

Pet care experience

This section is currently under construction, but here are some quick points: 🐾 dogs have been part of my daily life for 10+ years 🐾 I am certified in Pet CPR/FIRST AID and have multiple certificates I have earned through my dog grooming education (Pet Skin Care 101, Doodle Grooming, etc) 🐾 I only board one-on-one and dogs that board with me stay overnight (with me) in my dog grooming shop where it is quiet, stress-free and has a nice fenced in backyard for exercise and potty breaks. 🐾 I have 3 dogs of my own; Buffy - a 6 year old female American Staffordshire mix. Haku - a 4 year old male long haired dachshund. Kieran - a 2 year old male standard poodle. 🐾 My dogs have unique personalities and big feelings with new friends, so as a precaution I keep them separate from dogs boarding with me and keep everyone on a rotation of out time/rest.

Tara is a Dog Whisperer! And a great Rover sitter... She's an amazing dog sitter and truly cares about being aware of everything that dogs need. I'll definitely use her again and have total trust in her taking care of my pup.

I have used Rover 10-15 times and Tara is without a doubt the best person I have had watch my dog. Her thoughtfulness, care, and communication were above and beyond. I will absolutely be using her in the future!! If you are also looking for dog grooming, she did an incredible job trimming my dogs hair as well!

Tara was absolutely fantastic! We had a meet and greet that was amazing. It was my first time leaving my dogs with demons and was so nervous. Tara was patient and understanding and answered all my questions and concerns. Tara’s proffesionalism is to be admired. I was sent pictures and updates daily. My dogs appeared happy and were included I. Her pet family 100%. I would totally recommend Tara and look forward to having her watch my dogs when I get a chance to go on another trip.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard with artificial turf that provides space for exercise and potty breaks. In the facility, I have 4x4 bungalow kennels with canopy tops that are in a quiet separate area from the rest of the grooming shop. This set up is ideal for dogs with low to moderate energy as I do not have play groups or other accommodations for dogs with high energy.

Information Tara O. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies? How is a typical day for them? Any triggers (for example, my dog is afraid of sudden, unexpected bangs... if anyone walked her not knowing that, she would bolt!) How old is the dog? Does the dog get along with other dogs/animals/people/children? Favorite activities?

A typical day

I prefer to do whatever the owners enjoy doing with their dogs; take them for walks, set up some puzzles or treat toys, or even just snuggle and watch TV. For liability and safety reasons, I will not take dogs that are in my care to the dog park or anywhere off leash.
