Full-time Animal Lover
Pet care experience
Hello there! My name's Taylor and I'm a data analyst, pursuing a Masters degree in Computer Science. I'm interested in caring for your pet(s) because I absolutely love animals and it seems like the perfect way to combine that love with a way to earn a little extra money to help support my education. Growing up, we had all kinds of animals in the house from dogs and cats to birds and hermit crabs - I've basically been caring for them my whole life. I also have volunteered at multiple different animal shelters throughout the years where I regularly walked and helped find homes for the dogs and cats there. The last place I volunteered at was the Northern Nevada SPCA in 2020 (just before covid - speaking of which, I am fully vaccinated). I'd also like to add that I am an active runner so I'd be especially happy to care for any dogs who need to get some energy out! I'm also more than willing to do a meet & greet before any house sittings, check-ins, etc. I'll be sure to care for your cat or pup as well as I would my own!
Reviews
Taylor is the best! Great communication, lots of pictures, extremely reliable, and my pup is always very happy with her.
Taylor was great at communicating arrival and departure times and any time that she might have to leave the home. I appreciated this because our dog has separation anxiety and general anxiety. Taylor followed directions we left her, sent photos daily, and left the home tidy. We came home to a peaceful dog! I would book with Taylor again in the future.
Taylor was awesome!! Extremely communicative, lots of updates, I was totally at ease the whole weekend. Will definitely be using her again in the future!
Taylor took great care of our dog while we were away! Our dog is under one year old and a high energy breed, so thankfully, Taylor took her out on daily runs to wear her out. Taylor also told us how she used a lot of positive reinforcement to encourage our dog in good behavior. The daily updates and pictures were nice!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will always try my best to maintain your pet's usual routine, give them lots of love and attention, and leave your home just as you left it (if not better)!
Information Taylor B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog is friendly with others, their activity level, and if there's anything in-particular that may cause them anxiety while we're out on a walk or run together.
A typical day
I run almost everyday so if your dog is really active, I’d love to take them along with me! And I always love exploring new parks and neighborhoods.

Availability
I currently have a full-time position that requires me to work in-person Monday-Friday. I am free to leave during my lunches for check-ins, potty breaks, etc. but if your pet requires someone to check in on them more often than every 4-5 hours, I may not be a great fit. Saturday-Sunday, however, I am very flexible and happy to adapt to your pet's usual routine.
