Tara is great. My dog is a bit timid but she came for a meet and greet and made friends fast. Good communication and service.

Tara is incredible! She is great with the dogs. She is reliable and communicates well, making sure we always know how the dogs are doing and passes on any information about the house that is pertinent. She always sends pictures from her visits. She is also very responsive. I am genuinely happy we found her. She takes such fantastic care of our pups.

Tara was great with Drake. She took him on long walks and was tired when I got home from work. Much appreciated.
