I will come to your place for drop-in care, sitting, and walks (I will not host pets), so just tell me what you are needing most!

Information Taran S. would like to know about your pet

I want to know how your dog behaves around strangers before I get to your place. That way, I have time to reset my energy before we meet.

A typical day

Your dog and I will get lots of exercise. If they like toys, we will play. If they like fetch, I’ll throw the ball as long as they want. Mainly, I will make sure your dog gets in a nice walk!

Taran was awesome. We’ve used Rover a lot, but this was our first time having a sitter stay over at our house. We were hesitant about having someone stay in our home at first, but when we did the meet and greet with Taran, she made us feel confident in our decision. She was sweet, polite, and was very warm to our fur babies. During our time away, she sent us updates and pictures, and our pups were playing and smiling! They even slept with her on the bed <3 Overall a very good experience. Taran is responsible, trustworthy, and made us feel very secure. Definitely would book again!

I’m a frequent traveler and have never left my cats with anyone but close friends. When they weren’t available, Taran stepped in and took great care of them! She was very accommodating, took adorable daily pictures, and was flexible with their needs. I would absolutely ask Taran to cat sit again!

Taran is everything you could want in a dog sitter. She’s dependable, punctual and has great communication skills. And, of course, our dogs loved her! She sat for them for 2 nights, and on the second night, our dogs didn’t even seem to care that we were leaving. Highly recommend!

Taran was amazing! Our pup is super anxious and we follow a lot of routines to combat this, so leaving our fur baby is never easy. Taran followed our instructions perfectly, Her updates were plentiful, and we knew our the dog and our home were in good hands! Would highly recommend and we hope to have her sit for us again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
