Patient, loving, likes to play

Pet care experience

I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and personalities. I am happy to have them in my home, where we can play and cuddle. I have walking trails and the dog park close to my apartment. I have been dog and housesitting for four years, and I decided to branch out to meet and play with more of these amazing animals. I'm happy to be able to help others in my area. I am a teacher by day, and look forward to the companionship of mans best friend in my free time. They just make me happy! Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs every since I was a little girl. As an adult I have not owned my own dog, because I love spending time with everyone else's. Also, as a teacher, I like to travel on my free time. About my yard I live in an apartment, so I do not have a backyard. However, I have many sidewalks, walking trails, a public dog park less than a mile away, and a smaller dog park on my apartment grounds. My experience administering medication Yes, oral medications.

As usual, Tara was great, took care of our crazy bulldogs while we were away for a week. Daily photos and videos kept us calm and up to date.

Tara was just wonderful with our two boys! They were so excited when we got there, neither one turned to say bye to us (haha). Tara's step son was also visiting and loved playing with them. They were two happy pups...we got pictures, they got to sleep anywhere / everywhere, play fetch and seemed to have had just the best time away for a few days. Thank you Tara!

Tara was so good with my Spot and Roxy. She cared for them like they were hers. I would definitely use her again.

This is Snowball's first stay with Tara and it was for over a week. Snowball was comfortable with Tara immediately. Tara was very accommodating with the drop off and pick up times. She provided pictures and videos of my dog, and kept me up-to-date on how he was doing. I will definitely have Snowball stay with Tara next time I have to go out of town.
