Information Tara S. would like to know about your pet

We would love to know a little about your dog's personality so we know best how to introduce him/her to our home and our animals. We would also like to know any commands or tricks your dog knows so we can continue to utilize them while your dog is with us. We have no breed restrictions on who we will keep.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We will walk around our neighborhood which is a very quiet, dog friendly neighborhood. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Preferably, your dog would sleep in a kennel provided by you or we have several sized kennels as well. We prefer to keep all dogs in our home in a kennel at night and we have not had a problem with that yet. They seem to enjoy having the time to themselves and a cozy spot that is their own. If your pup isn't comfortable in a kennel or is too big :) then they can just sleep in their bed! Time I'll spend with your dog Your dog will be with someone the majority of the day, except if we go out in the evenings.

Pet care experience

We would love to care for your dog for a night, a week or however long you need! We are experienced with keeping dogs in our home and would be happy to stay with your dog in your home if you choose! We have been working through a local rescue group as a foster family and have brought in over 10 dogs as fosters! We will also be happy to work with your dog on basic commands or even tricks if you'd like! We are very experienced with clicker training! We look forward to treating your dog as if he/she were our own! Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover my whole life! Growing up we always had cats, and it wasn't until 7 years into Adam and my marriage that we decided to get a dog! We couldn't imagine life without her! Since having Ruby, we have gained such a love for dogs. We have fostered through a local rescue for a couple years and have had a variety of dogs in our home. We love having dogs in our home and creating a relaxing, loving environment while they are in our care. About my yard We have a 1/4 acre level fenced in yard with a covered porch. I love having the covered porch area for dogs to relax on if it is sunny. My experience administering medication Yes, we are.

Tara and her husband are always amazing! The pups have a great time and come back happy, healthy, and tired from playing with their best friend Nami :)

Tara and her family were just lovely. Took great care of our 10 year old Frenchie. She sent lots of pictures and was great at communicating. Will definitely book again!
