I love movies and so does my dog :)
Pet care experience
I've had dogs since I was 11 and have been taking care of them ever since. I had a pug growing up and learned a lot about their limited nasal passages and the importance of the cleanliness of their wrinkles. He had cancer at the end and I became used to cleaning up after him, giving him medicine religiously, and picking him up when walking became difficult. I currently have a beagle and although he's an older man of 13 he's still got energy like a puppy. He's got a mild arthritis so he takes vitamins daily and walks are a bit more delicate. I come from a huge loving family filled with dogs and they've all just become our brothers, sisters, cousins, and children. I've put on collars, harnesses, leashes and retractable leashes. I feel like I'm almost a master. Haha. We've gotten dressed up for Halloween and taken professional photos. We used to live in Miami so my dogs we also always able to swim.
Reviews
We have a specific care schedule for our puppy, which we sent to Taylor, in detail, in advance of her sitting. Considering, this wasn’t her first time looking after our girl Nyxie, we didn’t think there would be any cause for concern. Unfortunately, she completely disregarded our instructions (or simply didn’t care to read them). For example, we’ve spent a fair deal of time and money training our pup not to jump up on the furniture only to discover Taylor napping with our dog on our sofa. It was disrespectful and we will not be booking Taylor again.
Taylor was wonderful with our pup Nyxie. She’s stayed in our home for a few days over the New Year holiday. She respected our space and left it clean upon our return. She was attentive with Nyxie and sent plenty of photo updates. We would definitely hire Taylor again to look after our little girl. Thank you Taylor!
Taylor is a breath of fresh air. She is very proactive and makes you feel like she's paying attention at all times. My babies were happy when we got home and I didn't worry about a thing while we were gone for the weekend. We loved the piece of mind that she provided us with and will definitely keep her on the top of our list for all of our future needs. Thank you, Taylor!
Taylor was great - I got home and everyone was happy and well cared for - will definitely be calling her again!

I care for others pets as if they were my own. If I’m in your home I’m respectful of the space. Usually the owner will leave instructions on pet care which I prefer. I want your pets to be comfortable in their home without their parents.

Information Taylor A. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preference, but would just like to know the age so I can be prepared for what to bring on the walk. But all dogs are my preference!
A typical day
Depending on the age of the dog, a nice long walk towards a green area is a good adventure. There's always a park somewhere with a bench or other (friendly) dogs. With an "ok" from the owner I will usually grab a few little treats while on my walk for obedience training purposes and rewards. If I see stairs I like to run up and down them If it's an older dog, usually the walk is a bit slower and shorter but who doesn't like a light stroll in this crazy fast city?

I work remotely so I’m home most of the time. Except for when I leave for hot yoga :) the dog would be alone for maybe a couple of hours at a time.
