Caring Counselor and Dog Owner

Pet care experience

I am an elementary school counselor (former teacher) who is off for the summer, which means I have an extremely flexible schedule. Since I won't have students to care for over the summer, let me care for your dogs! :) I have had dogs all my life of all different ages and sizes and have had so much love for them. Growing up my parents got us a dog (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) because I promised I would take care of him- which I did. During college my roommate had a dog (Cavapoo) and I helped take care of her and I currently have 2 dogs now- a Cockapoo and a Cavapoo. My husband’s parents had two older dogs which I helped take care of before they passed away (Lab and Papillon). They now have a Lab puppy which I help watch. When they need me, I help take care of her by walking her, letting her out constantly, feeding her, cuddling her, playing with her, etc. If you hire me, I promise I will care for your dogs just as much as I do for my own. I will take your dogs on walks, play with them, cuddle with them, clean up after them, administer oral medication (if necessary). Can't wait to start meeting some new doggie faces! I just graduated from graduate school, so I am currently out of work until the fall. This means I am available any time of the day to take care of your sweet pups. If you allow me to watch your dogs at my house, I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep yours company. Whether your dogs stay at my house or I am helping at your home, I will be able to take your dogs out throughout the day, including walks, since I am currently out of work. I am constantly playing with my dogs so I will make sure I play and cuddle with your pups as well. I will also be able to give your dogs food throughout the day.

Tara has always shown great concern, care and affection for my puppy, Leyla. She helped Leyla with potty, crate and being on a leash training. When I was out and Tara was watching Leyla, she always respected my rules and time schedule when it came Leyla's feeding time. I always knew my beloved puppy was in excellent hands with her. I would recommend Tara as a confident and loving dog caregiver.

Tara is absolutely amazing with dogs!! She is caring, loving, and gentle with my fur babies. It is clear from the moment you meet her that she puts your dog's needs and priorities first. It may be hard to earn my trust with my beloved fur babies, however, I have no doubt in my mind that my doggies are taken very well care of when Tara is there. The best feeling when you are away from home is not to have to worry about your dogs. If you want a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter than Tara is the right one for you!

It is my pleasure to recommend Tara as a dog walker and sitter. Tara is very caring and careful with my two dogs. She is reliable and my dogs love her! Tara is trustworthy and keeps my dogs safe. I am sure you will also be impressed with Tara. Ivy G.

Information Tara G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any behaviors or needs I should be aware of. I would love to meet your dogs ahead of time so they are comfortable with me and recognize me when I come to take care of them!

A typical day

I am very active myself so I love being active with my dogs- whether that means playing catch in the backyard, playing with other dog toys in the house, teaching your dog new tricks, going on walks. I have a beautiful, safe neighbor where I walk my dogs and I am able to make it longer or shorter depending on the needs of your dog. There is also a park near me that has a walking track I like to use as well!
