Pet care experience

Lexington Plantation Pup Sitter!

I've been a dog owner of anywhere from 1-3 dogs my whole life. My current dog Brody is like my 2nd child. I have experience with puppies all the way through senior dogs and and am comfortable with any size & breed. I love whatever your dogs love: ball, fetch, snuggles, chase, tug, walks, you name it! I also have experience with other pets such a bearded dragons, cats, hamsters, fish, you name it!

Tara is amazing! She goes above and beyond for your furry family members and loves them like her own. We have 2 senior dogs who require extra care and she took such good care of them. And our cats adore her. She’s great at communicating and you never have to worry when your pets are in her care.

Tara is amazing and really goes above and beyond! One of my pets ate through a bag of pill pockets and she brought a few from home so she was still able to give my cat her daily pill.

Tara helped me out as a last minute request and she was on time, polite, and my fur babies truly seemed to enjoy her.

Tara was amazing with our senior dogs who suffer from incontinence issues in their elderly years. And our morally antisocial cat who hides from everyone decided she was his new best friend. She was great at communicating and responding. Would highly recommend her!
