Hi, I'm Tara! I've been working with shelters, foster groups, and private clients for over 10 years, and caring for animals isn't just something I do - it's what I truly love. I specialize in creating a calm, structured, and safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog needs playtime and enrichment, gentle handling, medication support, or just a cozy place to relax, I tailor care to each pet's personality and needs. Pet parents appreciate that I'm: - Highly responsive and communicative - Experienced with a wide range of temperaments - Detail-oriented about routines and instructions - Committed to safety and cleanliness You'll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can feel completely at ease while you're away. MY HOME AND SETUP My home is arranged with dedicated spaces specifically for pet care. DOGS have structured areas for boarding, supervised play, and quiet rest time to ensure each guest feels secure and comfortable. I carefully manage introductions and group dynamics so every dog feels safe and supported. CATS also have their own separate, calm spaces, completely apart from the dogs if needed. This allows them to relax in a quiet environment without stress. Each cat area is set up with comfort, litter privacy, and individualized attention. Cleanliness, routine, and safety are priorities here. I maintain organized feeding schedules, structured potty breaks, and calm transitions throughout the day. Every pet is treated with consistency, affection, and respect for their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furbaby!
