Experienced and energetic pet lover

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m a work-from-home pet mom with a flexible schedule and a deep love for animals. I have four of my own (two very active dogs, one older cat, and a horse!) but there is still time in my life and room in my heart to fill with more animals. I've recently stopped full-time corporate work to focus on building up a side gig, and that's freed up some of my time to return to Rover! I've been a pet owner since childhood, and have had several cats, dogs, and horses under my care through the years. One of my current dogs is a reactive, hyperactive golden retriever, so I've grown into a super conscientious pet parent, and am deeply attuned to the needs of whatever four-legged friend I am caring for. I'm very happy to cater services to you and your pet's specific needs, and look forward to meeting you!

This was our first time to use rover and Taryn was great! She stopped by before to meet George and figure out logistics and communicated well throughout the day to let me know what was going on. Thank you!

Taryn is the best!!! I can’t always get my dog to walk but Taryn can! 🤷‍♀️

Sherlock had a wonderful stay with Taryn. He also found a new dog playmate in her one year old dog Cocoa. Although he is nine, he enjoyed romping in the backyard with Cocoa, as we were happy to see in the many photos we received. When we picked him up he was pleasantly exhausted.

Taryn took great care of our two young cats while we were on vacation. It was great not having to worry about them while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for each and every pet as if they were my own. I'm playful and outgoing, and love to interact with animals as much as they want to interact with me. That said, I'm quite adept at reading pet body language, so am quick to pick up on any changes in mood or mannerisms and can adjust on the fly. My goal is to leave your animal(s) safe and happy.

Information Taryn C. would like to know about your pet

The important things for me to know about your pooch are how they get along with other dogs, whether they have any particular personality quirks that I’d encounter when caring for them, and whether they have any health issues thay need special care or treatment.

A typical day

I'm totally game for whatever your pet is in the mood for. I can take it easy with a walk around the block, or do some in-home play-time for kitties. If you have a more energetic dog, I'm happy to go for a more intensive hike to get them nice and tired out. I am a fan of snacks and positive reinforcement, so there are usually a few little treats sprinkled in here and there (though am very conscious of pet allergies!)
