Nurturing Pet Sitter Available

Pet care experience

I have a passion for animal advocacy and care, and have been involved with Hope Animal Rescue both as a foster mom and volunteer for 4 years. Not only will I provide responsible and reliable care for your pet, I will also bring a nurturing and loving manner of care. I'm 41 years old, work in early childhood research. I have a flexible work schedule, allowing me to be at home with your pet during the day. I will also make certain to understand your dog's needs and am dependable to carry out your wishes regarding their care. One of my favorite activities is to take dogs on hikes in the area. The exercise and fresh air does us both good. A little more about me as an individual: I love to bake, do yoga, volunteer, read, and spent time outdoors.

Tara was amazing with our two dogs for a long weekend. We got pictures throughout the weekend of them having a great time. She even taught our puppy new tricks! For having to handle both a senior dog and a 4 month old puppy, she did phenomenal. We couldn't have asked for a better pup-sitter!!

Tara was a wonderful sitter for our pups. They were pampered and loved and very happy when we returned. I would definitely use Tara again for house/dog sitting.

I'm very picky about who I let keep my dog and watch over my home when I'm away. Tara is one of the few people I trust to watch my dog while I'm out of town. Her love for animals is evident and my guy runs to greet her every time she visits. I also rest easy knowing that my house will be well taken care too.

Tara is great with our dog! Tara was the foster mom to our black lab mix, Cookie, and she will always have a special spot in our hearts and our dog's heart too. She loves our Cookie like he's her own dog. I don't know who gets more excited when Tara visits for pet sitting or social time with us -- Tara to see Cookie or vice versa. Cookie jumps around like a maniac for a minute when he sees Tara each time! Tara takes Cookie doesn't just feed our dog and take care him out a couple of times when watching Cookie while we are away -- She takes him out on long walks and to social outings, etc. She has watched Cookie for a day or up to almost 3 weeks when we traveled this summer. Tara is also a volunteer with Hope Animal Rescue, which is a foster organization. If you want someone who will love and take care of your dog and treat it like her own, look no further. Tara is responsible, caring, and kind. She is a dog whisperer.
