Avid hiker and runner

Pet care experience

I grew up in Colorado with 2 labs who loved to go hiking, swimming, and on every adventure that I took. I learned from a young age what it takes and how to be a good dog owner for my pups. I was very active in their training from a young age, and know how important consistency is for dogs. I have also looked after many of my friends' dogs and I go on hikes with them almost weekly. My love for animals and adventures is what makes me a great sitter and walker for all dogs types. While my house is now dog free (hopefully not for long) I am eager and willing to work out what ever situation you need in order to work with and take care of your best friend.

Tara was great with our pups. Our dogs instantly fell in love when she came over for the meet and greet! During the stay, Tara communicated well when arriving, during the stay, and when she left on the last day. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her!

Tara was amazing and the dogs obviously loved her. She went above and beyond to make me feel at ease with pictures and texts. Would absolutely have her watch the boys again.

We are so thankful for Tara and the care she provides to our fur babies. We have a 6 month old lab mix and a 1 and 1/2 year old lab mix. Both dogs are high energy and love to play. Tara goes out of her way to care for our dogs, communicate any questions or needs with us and sends updates to us throughout her stay. We are very appreciative of all that Tara does for our pups and highly recommend her. Thank you Tara for being so wonderful!

Tara has watched our American Eskimo multiple times now and she has been nothing short of professional. I would highly recommend Tara to watch any dog, or animal. Our dog is very high maintenance, but when we get her back, she is just smiling, and exhausted which is nice. She receives plenty of love, plenty of running, Tara is an avid runner which our dog just loves, and Tara is diligent in what she needs for food and medication. We will continue to use Tara as our dog sitter when we are away
