Pet care experience

I've been dog-obsessed (all animals, really) since before I can remember. While my family never had a dog until we moved to Seattle, around 8 years ago, this never stopped me from getting the time with them that I desired. My passion for animals knows no bounds, and has encouraged me to seek out many neighborhood clients in the past in order to provide excellent dog sitting and walking services. Animals are truly just different kinds of people in my eyes, and I treat them as such with the care and respect that a person would deserve. This way of seeing them allows me to connect with them in ways that is very tailored and unique to who they are, it feels as though they can tell that I see them as important and worthy of appreciation. I am very comfortable with all breeds & sizes, cats and other animals as well! I love them all :)

Tara has been a wonderful pet sitter to my skittish cat and exceptionally helpful, quick to respond, flexible, and understanding throughout our trip for which I am very grateful! I would absolutely recommend Tara and attempt to rebook any time I'm on vacation.

My kitties loved hang out with Tara! She was great at communicating and providing updates and adorable photos of my cats. And I appreciated her flexibility when it came to scheduling. Would definitely recommend and have her watch my cats again!

Tara was a terrific and kind sitter! She sent cute photos of my kitties that made me feel less homesick and relieved that my cats were in good hands.

Tara is the best cat sitter. She is reliable, flexible, empathetic. Always takes amazing care of my kitty who is not the easiest to get along with. I whole heartedly recommend Tara and will continue booking her time to check in with my kitty Benito.

Information Tara S. would like to know about your pet

Preferred scratching spots, and a little rundown on their personality would be great so I know what to expect. I have no breed preferences, I've had practice handling dogs of all sizes with minimal effort!

A typical day

If your dog enjoys the company of other dogs, then dog parks are a must! They're something we both would enjoy. Otherwise, tailored walks that allow them to sniff and roam as they please will be an integral part to our experience together.
