Big fenced yard on dead end street!
Pet care experience
Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. A little about me, I am an animal lover and experienced pet care professional. I also am active in rescue and networking to find homes for abandoned and stray dogs. My whole life is essentially dedicated to improving the lives of animals, and pet sitting to give your family member the most enjoyable, stress free experience possible while you're away feels like a natural extension of that. If the dogs aren't happy, I'm not happy. My home is located on a quiet, dead end street with a large (about half an acre, total property is 2.5 acres) fenced in yard to run and play. Dog heaven! I have 20 years of experience handling dogs, cats and horses. I also have experience caring for birds, reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, and livestock as well. I trick train as a hobby and will love, play, and engage with your pet while you're away as if they were my own. My personal dog, Magnus, has mastered sit, stay, high five, shake, play dead, lay down, beg, bow, speak, whisper, roll over, retrieve, and has trained and competed in agility. I would be happy to do basic obedience work while you are away for no extra charge (using only positive training methods). I am also an active jogger if your dog likes to run! I am easy going, flexible, and easy to work with, and would be happy to customize my services to suit your dog's needs. I also have experience caring for elderly dogs and dogs with special medical needs. I have references available upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! Every client I've ever had thinks their dog is the best dog, and none of them have ever been wrong.
Reviews
Cannot say enough great things about Taylor! She has dropped in on our cats a couple times in the past, with this one being the longest that we were away. Loved getting the picture updates and could not feel any more comfortable knowing that they were well taken care of. We had to change some of the dates around a few times as well as add in medication that one of our cats needed and she was always flexible and willing to help out! Our cats love her!
Once again, Taylor hosted our dog, on short notice. She was terrific, and our dog loves being at her place. She'll be our go to person until we depart Ft. Drum.
My two boys have stayed with Taylor four times and are already set up for two more times in the next two months with more to follow this summer. She is amazing with them and my golden who HATES going to the sitter and usually protests by not eating/generalized pouting LOVES her. As in he pouts when we come back to GET him. She puts up with my black lab puppy better than anyone else I've ever seen and he can be a massive undertaking! All in all, Taylor has been amazing with my boys, sending me updates regularly and to top it off, she's helped introduce both boys to horses on a more regular basis which has helped me feel more confident about bringing them to horseshows this spring/summer! Book Taylor and you won't be disappointed.
She is great always ❤️❤️❤️

Information Taylor H. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds. It would be helpful to know if your dog likes other dogs. I do have the means to keep dogs separated from others at my home if requested or necessary, but for the social butterflies there is a lot of emphasis on play time and interaction with others (a tired dog is a happy dog!). I would also like to know what your dog's normal daily routine is, and any special attention for medical concerns that they might need.
