Pet care experience
I have worked in the veterinary field for over 10 years in administration and assisting as needed with patient care. I have been pet sitting for the past 7 years for dogs, cats, aquatics, amphibians, and small animals such as rabbits and guinea pigs. I am able to medicate cats and dogs including injectable medication. I have worked with puppies with house/crate training and basic obedience and am incredibly comfortable with bully breeds. I work a 5 day/6 day flex workwork and am able to tend to you fuzzy or scaled family members in the early morning or after 5pm most weekdays. On the weekends I am able to include mid-day checkins. Dogs are to be tended to a minimum of 3xs a day when not staying at the home. Cats, though independent, should be cared for at least 2xs a day. Other aquatics, amphibians, and small animals should also be cared for a least 2xs a day. Routines are key and keeping pets on a schedule is important to keep their stress levels low while their families are away. Even though my yard is fenced in, I never leave my pets unattended/out of my sight, and the same will go for any pet I am caring for.
Reviews
Friendly, super-responsive and communicative. She was great on short notice and took care of our 2 pups. (Also sent great pics throughout).
Taryn has been an amazing pet sitter for our 3 dogs for over 5 years. She stops over several times a day and spends time petting, playing and chatting with them. She has an amazing connection with each of our dogs and they love to see her coming through the door. I feel 100% confident leaving my fur babies in her care and having her in my home. I highly recommend Taryn for her compassion with all animals and her professional work ethic.
Taryn has been watching our zoo (2 dogs, 5 cats and fish) for years! We have older dogs and a diabetic cat that require more attention/care than most. She is always respectful of our house and animals. She is the type of person that will sit and spend time playing with your four legged family member rather than a quick in and out visit. I can not say enough wonderful things about Taryn!!

Information Taryn R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pets have any special needs. I do prefer that when I take them out on walks that they are collard and tagged and use a harness; if this is not feasible, let's please chat further on this.
A typical day
I love taking dogs to the Nature Reserve Park in Middletown and Wadsworth Falls Waterfall in Rockfall to enjoy the outdoors. Both offer a cool shaded environment to enjoy the outdoors. Having a fenced-in backyard allows for relaxing outdoor time and playing games within the safety of the yard. There are not many trees in my yard, but have an umbrella for added shade and fresh water is always available.
