Me + Dogs = Best Friends!

Pet care experience

I have been around animals, especially dogs, since I was born. My very first best friend was named Dino Dog. That's where it all started. Since a very young age, I have been taught how to take care of all types of animals, not just dogs or cats. Fish, rabbits, and chickens to name a few. I've previously been involved in local dog rescues with my mom helping foster and place dogs in permentant forever homes who have escaped horrible situations from down south.

Chip LOVED Tara. And she was very considerate to the house and all of his needs. She sends adorable updates. Absolutely will recommend to a friend.

I would highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. Tara has years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and little critters too. Tara is kind, has a very sweet voice, and genuinely cares for all animals and their well-being. I’m confident that anyone who has the opportunity to have Tara care for their pet will have peace of mind knowing their pet will be loved, played with, and very much cared for. I personally would trust Tara with all my pets. She has such a big heart! ❤️

Tara is a very loving and compassionate person that absolutely loves animals. She is kind..patient and would ensure the safety of animals in her care. Tara grew up with all kind of animals. She has assisted us with lost animal rescue and fostering. She is a wonderful person to care for your pets while you are away.

I go by what the owners of the dogs instruct me. I don't like to break a dogs home routine so I try to stick to whatever the family routine is for the dog as much as possible to make the dog comfortable and less anxious. In the near future, I also plan on getting certified in dog CPR.

Information Tara P. would like to know about your pet

If your dog is on any special kind of medications, either short term or long term, I would need to know the time of day they recieve it, how they receive it (with peanut butter, just water, mixed in with their food, broken up) and how many times a day they recieve it. I would also need to know if they have any kind of allergies to certain foods or seasonal.

A typical day

I love to play all sorts of games with dogs! Ball, tuggy, chase, and anything to physically engage them! I love taking dogs for a walk and I love when a dog is a cuddle bug!
