Pet care experience
I know it can be really worrying to leave your pet in the care of someone else while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet how the way I’d hope someone would treat my pet under their care ❤️ Your pup or kitten can expect lots of love, lots of playtime, frequent walks, and all my attention so that they don’t realize you were ever away. Please read the full text ❤️ (I currently have no pets in my own home as my two family dogs live with my parents) I have years of experience especially with dogs and cats who are - seniors that need very gentle care - pets who are prone to any injuries or who’s had medical conditions in the past IVDD, diabetics, etc - pets who are blind and hard of hearing - pets that require medication, injections, teeth brushed, supplements, or a special diet raw/cooked/prepared. ** PLEASE NOTE ** I unfortunately cannot accept pets with any separation anxiety for boarding requests (daycare is ok) as there will be times I need to briefly run a quick errand like groceries. And due to living in an apartment, with very thin neighbouring walls, I wouldn’t want to risk complaints from neighbours in those moments! My two family dogs Romeo🌈 and Armani, who live in my parents home, (they are my soul dogs) who I’ve had almost my whole life now, have opened my heart to love all animals so much. I only accept one pet boarding at a time in my own home or two “sibling” pets from the same home. I do this so that I can give my full undivided attention and care to your little one, and so that they feel completely comfortable and safe in the new environment. Please note I also do not accept pets who aren’t completely potty trained.
Reviews
Tara did a great job looking after my cat Bonnie who has a habit of hiding from pet sitters. Tara quickly won her over and it was so great to know that Bonnie had lots of attention while I was away. I really appreciated Tara’s clear and thorough communication, as well as her flexibility when I had a last minute schedule change. Will definitely be booking Tara again for future cat sitting!
Can't say enough good about Tara looking after my dog Summer. She walked her 4 times a day and sent pictures and videos daily as requested. Tara cared for her in a loving manner and I will definitely be using her again.
Tara is the best. Everytime I say her name my dog gets extremely excited. He loves her. Shes very quick to respond and super easy to chat too. Tara is always on time, always updates me on his potty business, and gives him a snack before leaving. Can’t recommend Tara enough!!!
Tara took amazing care of our friendly and energetic Pom. Ryder was clearly in good hands. We really appreciated the thoughtful daily updates and photos. Thank you Tara!

Information tara v. would like to know about your pet
Prior to accepting a boarding I would need to know - do they have any seperation anxiety - their sleeping arrangements (where do they usually sleep in their own home? - Is your dog or cat 100% potty trained? Please note, I do not accept pets who are not completely potty trained - their usual wake up times, sleep times, specific walking times and eating times that they are used to - for cats - do they have tendencies to scratch furniture? - favourite activity they love (fetch, cuddles, zoomies) - any personality quirks I should know? Any dislikes they have?
A typical day
Frequent and longer adventurous walks with dogs who enjoy being outside, for cats I have a large window where they can see all the way from the river to the pigeons who sit on my balcony all day.
