Communication

100% response rate
Usually responds in under half an hour

Skills

10 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Injected medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

In the mornings I'd be up between 5 and 6 to walk, feed, and whatever else the pet needed then I'd head to work. Depending on the pet's schedule, I'd immediately head back to walk and feed again. I can be there overnight with the pet or just check in during the day if desired.

Information Tatum M. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if your pet has any specific behaviors I can use to understand them, any medications they'll need to be administered, restrictions on where they can and can't go or whether they can go on the furniture, do they get along with other animals on walks.

A typical day

I like to take dogs for at least a 15-minute walk and play ball or tug-of-war with them. With cats, I like lasers or cat dancers. I made my cat a sensory toy with a box and treats, which he enjoyed.

Tatum did a great job of taking care of Avi and Shai. She was very understanding when they woke her up at 5:00am for breakfast and fed them. She sent pictures and was very communicative. Would definitely use again!

Tatum has sat for our pets for a weekend & for a week at a time. I found her to be kind, responsible, trustworthy & reliable. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat. Besides being great with animals, she's a smart & delightful young lady. Nancy & Lloyd Brinson Byron Center, MI

Tatum has cared for our cats many times over the years and she is reliable, trustworthy and respectful. She would take time to hang out with them so they wouldn't be lonely. I highly recommend her services.

Tatum is very responsible, dependable, conscientious and mature. She grew up around a cats and dogs and so knows how to behave around them. She also has a way of earning their trust and affinity. She has quite an affinity for them too! I would highly recommend Tatum to care for your cherished pets.
