Paw-sitively The Best :)

Pet care experience

As a proud dog and cat owner since birth, I know the struggle of trying to find someone or somewhere to take care of my pets like they are their own. Although boarding an animal at a facility is always an option, there is nothing better than having your pet stay in their own home where they can be comfortable and feel safe. As someone with over 5+ years worth of experience with animals of all kinds such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds, I can tell you there is nothing I love more than making sure your pet feels safe and happy! I am currently a student studying animal science with a pre-veterinary focus and I’ve worked in animal care for 5+ years ranging from dog/cat boarding to veterinary care. Your pet sitting will always include any medication and/or diet administration, daily walks if needed, texts with photos for updates, and of course, lots of playtime! *I am very comfortable with raw diets and have experience giving them!* If you feel I may be a good fit for your best friend, please don’t hesitate to say so! I’m a full-time animal caregiver and this means the majority of the time, I can make your requests work in my schedule.

Ruthie baby loved Tatum! When we got home she was obviously well taken care of. Tatum checked in frequently and always messaged back promptly. We are super happy!

We just moved and needed to find a cat sitter - Tatum was absolutely amazing in working with our cat!! You can tell she truly is a lover of all animals and so good with them, but she is also incredibly professional and you will genuinely feel like someone has everything taken care of. We will 1000% be using her again.

I do not provide any home boarding or overnight care in my own home. I do however have many parks I frequent such as Tyson Park and Circle park. I can also go to any park you recommend and/or trail.

Information Tatum L. would like to know about your pet

I always love getting to know your pet’s personality and their routine, that way the transition of your care to my care can feel as easy for them as possible. I’d like to know their diet schedule, play time and what they enjoy doing and any medications they need!

A typical day

Depending on what kind of friend I’m watching my day usually begins with feeding your pet(s) and then allowing them to get their energy out if needed with lots of stimulating play time such as tug of war and walks for dogs and laser pointer chasing for cats. I also make sure to factor in down time for our more senior or shy friends to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away!
