We would definitely use Tayia again. She was great at communicating with us and our 2 kitties seemed happy for her company with her drop in visits!

Taiya did a great job with my cat! Was great at communicating, pictures, and taking care of Zeus. I would use her services again!

I will not recommend Tayia. IF you use her make sure you know how much time she will give your pets on a daily bases as she has other responsibilities that take her time, I felt mine were neglected. She missed the fact that my golden retriever had an ear infection and I had to rush her to the vet the day after returning. Yes I did leave consent papers for the vet so she could have taken my girl in. My animals were very stressed. I explained that I had cameras outside my home before I left and this is how I know that one day my pets got all of 2 hours of her time other than returning late at night and sleeping at my home. One night she didn’t return and the next morning I had to have someone come to my home and take out my dog and feed her and my cat, evidently there was a misunderstanding of her obligations for her hire. There was no upkeep inside or out, dog poop everywhere. Your choice!

Tayia is very responsive, communicates well, and is easy to work with! My high energy dog is very happy after walks with her and I love the detailed notes she leaves in the Rover cards.
