Loving Dog Mom at your service!

Pet care experience

Hi! I am a dog lover to the bone! (pun intended) I have over twenty years of experience caring for my own pets as well the fur children of others. Having raised 3 of my own from puppies, I have taken multiple classes on caring for dogs and supporting healthy play. I create a fun and safe atmosphere for pups to play, learn and explore. I am also skilled at reading a dogs behavior and recognizing their needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds and would love to care for your pet(s)! What may set me apart from other pet sitters is my love of adventure. Per your permission of course, I know all the best dog parks in Portland and love to get out on hikes as well! Your pup is guaranteed to return home happy and exhausted!

Given Tava's many excellent reviews, we had good expectations when booking her to house sit and care for our furry ones for nearly a week. She still managed to exceed them. With two doodles (one a rescue with some anxiety, the other 1yo with a lot of puppy left in him), and our adult child's three cats living with us while they're away for a few months, our home is quite a handful. But Tava was incredibly on top of everything. She treated all the furry ones with kindness and sensitivity to their individual needs (nothing better than seeing canine smiles in pics every day). She adapted immediately to the needs and routines of our home, filled it with joy, compassion, thoughtful attention to detail, left it cleaner than before. Tava's a rare find, she will most certainly always be the first person we reach out to when we need someone to help us mind the homestead. We already think of her as family after just one booking. Thanks again, Tava. We are so grateful for the peace of mind you gave us while we were two thousand miles away for a family funeral. Cooper, Rigby, Butter, Tommy, and Bemo already miss you!

Tava was fantastic! I needed someone last minute to house/pet sit and she was everything I could ask for - communicative, caring, and by far the best experience I have had leaving my dogs. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were being well taken care of. Highly recommend!

Tava is great! Kept our four month old busy all day. Lots of pictures and updates. Thank you so much for spending the day with Rosie—she is so happy to have a new friend!

Could not recommend Tava enough. Sent tons of photos and videos while we were away, and took our puppy on all the walks he could ask for. Took great care of our home, and pup.
