Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard dedicated to just being the dog yard, separate from where the kids play. The yard connects to the garage where we can set up their kennel or a playpen for them to have all their favorite things from home! We live next to a large grassy park, perfect for playing or a walk to explore.

Information Tavia L. would like to know about your pet

Each dog has their own preferences and I would like to know your dog's needs regarding encounters with other dogs, people, children, walks, leash use etc. My main goal is to keep your pup safe and happy while you're away!

A typical day

If your pup likes to be outside more they will have free reign of the yard or if they prefer just having a quiet space to themselves, I can keep them in the garage with their favorite things from home.

Pet care experience

I don’t remember a time in my life when there wasn’t a dog. We always had them growing up and I continue to love them now! I have grown up around or taken care of a German Shepherd, Beagle, Lab, Golden, Boxer, Great Dane, St Bernard, Heeler, and we most recently had a Bernese Mountain Dog. We aren’t quite ready to add a new furry family member to our home, so in the meantime we’d love to get visits from yours! My main goal will be to keep your pup safe and happy while you're away! I truly love all dogs, but since I have small kids and other pets, I can only host breeds that are the best fit for our home. For those reasons, I’m not able to accept pit bulls or bully breeds. Thank you so much for understanding!

Tavia is a great sitter!! I have an 11 year old Australian shepherd, despite his age he is still fairly active, but Tavia was able to meet his needs accordingly. I got daily pictures and in all of them I could tell he was so happy and well taken care of. Would highly recommend her services!!

Tavia and her family “crew” are amazing pet sitters and I continue to highly recommend their services - they are so caring and welcoming to my “Reggie” when he goes to visit with them! He was well-rested and fresh when I picked him up, as if he had been to the spa! 😁. Thank you!

Jack had a great time with Tavia’s family and came home a happy camper. She was kind to send photos and gave us updates during his stay.

Tavia has been dog sitting Ralphie weekly for me and so far it’s been a great experience! She’s friendly, communicative, flexible, and very accommodating. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and cares about them. Ralphie always comes home tired in the best way possible after having so much fun. I’ve felt really comfortable leaving him with her and will definitely continue using her moving forward. Highly recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
