Caring, kitty loving grad student!

Pet care experience

Since a young age, I have always adored animals! Growing up, I owned cats, dogs, rabbits, and parakeets. I also spent many years as a teenager at my riding instructor’s barn taking care of her horses. I have experience ensuring pets receive their supplements and/or medication as well. In recent years, I have primarily taken care of cats and dogs, but I am (excitedly) open to other kinds of pets given the appropriate instruction! 🥰 Currently, I do not have a pet as my soulmate kitty passed from Lymphoma April 2024. I’m hoping interacting with more animals helps! I understand deeply how precious our animals are to us, and just how much they impact the quality of our daily lives and help with mental health. Luckily, my roommates have 4 scottish folds I get to love on- but I have plenty of love to give!! ❤️

Tawny took fantastic care of our little girl, and was very respectful of our house. We would definitely refer her to anyone looking for House Sitting services and we will certainly be using her again in the future!

Tawny is caring, reliable, and communicative. She did a great job looking after my pup in my home while I was away, and we’d love to book with her again for future visits!

Safety, trust & environment

Having owned indoor only cats, I have a lot of awareness when it comes to their safety. Regardless of whether or not a pet is flighty, I am careful to enter/exit doors quickly. I also remain mindful of pet’s habits when on walks outdoors, especially if they are reactive to other people/pets. I am also totally OK with your pets sleeping with me on the bed for overnights!

Information Tawny E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if they're friendly with other people and dogs while on walks, any dietary or medication info, their typical routine with you, favorite toys and games, energy level and temperament, and whether they have separation anxiety and/or destructive behaviors.

A typical day

Your pets will receive lots of love, such as pets, cuddles, and someone who talks to them! Activities include play time with their favorite toys and walks, as needed, for exercise.

I am currently focusing on my clinical hours for my graduate school program and work part-time with a local school district. My weekends are usually available! I can also provide overnights any day of the week. I typically work Monday-Friday from ~1 or 2 pm until 5:30pm (approximately 3.5-4.5 hours). Outside of that, I see clients on Telehealth.
