Love to Cuddle With Your Cuties!

Pet care experience

Since childhood I've had quite a fascination and love for animals. Always having pets in the home I learned that they make great adventure comrads, and somehow they always appear to cheer you up when feeling down. From this I developed great respect for animals. It was in middle school I adopted my first puppy Golden Retriever! I loved pouring over the books, training her, playing with her...since then I have had many dog experiences, both with my own and with other's. I have sat for friends, helped train friend's dogs, and I'm proud to say that I have experiences where dogs that normally don't take to strangers (so said their owner) happily come up to me. I realize dogs have feelings, wants, and needs just like we do, and I am very aware when I'm around them. It is a pleasure being able to spend time with your special friend; I can't wait!

Tara is great! She is sincere, trustworthy, and professional. Good communicator and immediate follow through. Updates provided reassurance my cat was well taken care of. Will definitely use again. Thank you!

Tara is freaking awesome! Tara house sat for 11 days and took care of our 2 dogs, cats and snakes. While I was gone I never had a second thought about the care of any of these things because of Tara's attention to detail and the sense of trust she instilled in me. I immediately noticed Tara's professionalism when she first contacted me and she continued to exceed my expectations of her during all interactions. Our house is actually home to our own dog training, boarding and rescue facility so we have incredibly high standards for our pet care. Thankfully Tara has a natural ability to work with all animals and an incredible aptitude for learning new animal care tools and techniques! She quickly learned how the dogs were to be walked and what their strengths and limitations were. I knew they were well taken care of when I got back because not only did they go on great adventures with her, I could visibly see that they were content and well exercised. I'm pretty sure they were actually a little disappointed when I got home and Tara wasn't around anymore. I will definitely use Tara again in the future and would recommend her to anyone that wants one less thing to worry about while they are away.

Jax, out dog, liked Tara instantly and we could tell she really likes dogs. Jax has a lot of anxiety when we leave but he did not experience that since Tara was so attentive to him. Tara is mature, calm and resourceful. I highly recommend her services.
