Pet care experience
Taking care of animals reminds me to take the time to enjoy the little things. Having the excuse to walk, hike, be outside, run around on a beach, or play park, gives you the opportunity to feel like a kid again. I have been playing with animals, and keeping them safe professionally for over four years. No two animals are alike, and I think it’s best to always remember that. I really like to take the time to get to know my clients, and their fur babies. Knowing breed characteristics are often helpful, but there are many other variables at hand, to truly understand what type of personality you’re going to get. I like to learn the habits, routines, likes, dislikes, and any type of unusual traits they may have, good or bad. Understanding the small details in both the owner, and animal is really what makes a pet care experience great. I’ve watch a range of all types of dogs, be large, small, young, old, ill, and some with a lot of special extra needs. I specialize in the details. I learn the small quirks that most owners might claim as being silly, but that’s what makes their fur child most comfortable when their mom or pops are are away. I also enjoy watching my meow friends too! Cats sitting/drop ins welcomed, and encouraged :-) I look forward to meeting my next paw friend!
Reviews
Tara has cat sat for my two boys several times since early 2017. She is a thorough and thoughtful sitter. She reminded me to give her the veterinarian contact information and followed my instructions perfectly. She loves playing with my boys and they are always well cared for when I am away. Tara is a light and it’s a joy to know my boys are cared for as well as I would care for them.
If we could give Tara 1000 stars we would. Tara is the most conscientious, considerate caregiver we've ever used for our dog, Cid. When we're away she sends photos and keeps us up to date. Truly excellent communications and always very accommodating; I would highly recommend Tara White.. She's the absolute best!
Tara is AWESOME. My 13 year old Brussels Griffon needed a dog-sitter while I went on vacation. Tara stepped in and took care of Lil Dude for 5 nights, and he looked great when I returned. He is getting up there in years, and Tara took the time to hear about all his minor (but numerous!) medical issues. She sent cute pics of them having a great time, and I would recommend her to anybody.
Tara is the best pet sitter we have ever had. Our elderly kitty has diabetes and requires 2 insulin injections a day. She is also pretty shy and doesn't like anyone but my husband and I. This creates a lot of stress when we have to leave town. Tara is so sweet and our kitty came right up to her instantly. I knew if was the perfect match! Now we can leave town with no stress!
