Taren J. would make a wonderful pet caregiver for a number of reasons. Firstly, she loves animals with all of her heart, honestly, she definitely loves animals more than most of the people she meets! ;) Taren has so much compassion for each and every animal she meets, whether it be an injured bird I once saw her rescue and bring home, one of her 4 dogs and 1 cat whom she treats like her own children, or her beautiful horse, she loves and cares for all animals the same. Second, Taren is very responsible. She knows how precious animals/pets are, and would do anything/everything in her power to make sure these pets are taken extremely well care of. Third, Taren is a very detail oriented person, she makes check lists and makes sure they are double-checked before completing any task, and this is no different when it comes to taking care of pets. Taren has a vast knowledge of animal/pet care. There is no one I would feel more comfortable with being with my pets in any kind of emergency, whether it be a large or small one, Taren always knows what to do. And, if she doesn't know herself, she will find someone who does ASAP. She is also wonderful at administering medicine, even when a stubborn pet is involved! Taren is always the person I go to when I have any kind of question related to pets. Any dog parent would be lucky to have such a warm, loving, compassionate, smart, and dedicated individual to take care of their pets needs.
