Providing Top Notch Care

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner all of my life! I love to walk and play with dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have worked in a local 'Doggie Daycare' facility, where I completed dog behavior analysis training and coursework, learning to read canine body language and appropriately approach nervous animals. I have had German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, and Huskies of my own, and worked with smaller dogs in my professional life. I am comfortable administering medication to animals in need, providing transport to appointments, house-sitting, and caring for other animals if necessary. Please contact me to learn more about my care options for exotic pets, reptiles, birds, cats, fish, etc.! I would love to put my experience to work for you and your pets!

Taylor was awesome! I got daily updates (with photos), the dogs got outside multiple times for walks, and they seemed happy. Taylor was attentive to details, courteous, and friendly. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Having known Taylor for five years, I can say with confidence that she is nothing short of the ideal pet-sitter, a hardworking, trustworthy animal lover with the experience to handle even the most temperamental personalities. Taylor grew up in a house with large dogs (huskies and German shepherds) and is totally comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Her background includes time working for a dog daycare (daytime boarding company) and various dog-sitting and dog walking arrangements. Outside of work, Taylor is always involving herself with animals in one way or another, whether it be volunteering for local animal charities, pet-sitting for friends, or caring for her own pets: a cat, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, and three chinchillas. Of her six pets, only the cat and bearded dragon were sought out while the others were "adopted" out of destitute situations (she found two of the chinchillas abandoned in a park, and the leopard gecko had been left to starve at her former place of employment), a fact which speaks to Taylor's naturally caring personality. Beyond being great with animals, Taylor is a trustworthy and honest person. She does what she says she will, and is always on time and prepared. Whatever your dog or pet sitting needs may be, you cannot go wrong choosing Taylor!

Taylor helped me with my dogs by walking them and playing in the yard while I was at work. The dogs loved her and she loved them! She was confident walking my 100 pound German Shepherd who can be a lot to handle. She had no problems with my pit bull either, but he is very sweet. She never cancelled and I felt confident knowing the dogs would be happy and well exercised while I was away. I highly recommend her.

Information Taylor B. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds! I like to know about your dog's usual routine (meal times, typical walk/play times), how they interact with other animals, and if they have any medical needs or allergies before I sit for them so that I can provide the best experience possible!

A typical day

I love to go for walks around neighborhoods, parks, and do more intense hiking for dogs with higher energy levels. An occasional trip to the pet store, ice cream shop, or Starbucks for a 'puppaccino' also give me great joy! One of my favorite summer activities to do with my own dogs is to set up a swimming pool or make special ice treats to cool off!
