Availability
I have an extremely flexible schedule and can adjust easily to meet your needs! One of our favorite times of the day is being able to unplug for an afternoon walk around the crosstown concourse campus with our dogs. I keep our pets on a regular routine feeding and giving medications at the same times every day so following your requested routine will be a breeze. My spouse is a recent graduate and and currently works from home part-time, so your pet would never be alone when boarding in our home or rarely if staying in your own home.

Our one story, midtown home has a large, securely fenced back yard with plenty of space to run around! We have baby gates that separate the bedrooms from the common areas and have multiple small and large pop-up kennels if you would like your pet to have their own space! In your home, we will be respectful of your space and adhere to any previously discussed routines or requests. If you need to update me on anything you may have forgotten, we are easily reachable. We are also happy to send photos and daily updates! I love animals and take pet care very seriously. I understand how important your pets are to you and I plan to treat them the way I treat my own furry family.

Information Taylor & Kiersten B. would like to know about your pet
I am equipped to handle most custom or special requests! As long as I have a little notice, the sky is the limit. I love to know your pets likes and dislikes ahead of time so I have the cheat codes to best support your fur babies! While I cannot provide official medical advice from my home or your home, if you have a medical concern I should watch out for, that’s helpful information too!
A typical day
I try to keep my own pets as well as the pets I care for with Rover on a routine schedule. When we wake up, I let our dogs outside to use the bathroom while I get their breakfast and medications ready. After breakfast I get some sunlight in the yard with them throwing balls or toys and supervising their playtime. Usually they’re ready for a nap so I make sure they have blankets and water before completing some of my school work. When they wake up I get them ready for their afternoon walk! We live in midtown so we decide if we want to walk around the crosstown concourse campus for socialization or if they need a more solitary walk through Overton park. Even on busy days we walk them at least a mile. After dinner and nighttime medications, it’s time for toys! Our dogs have both challenging treat puzzle toys and plush toys. The cat is pretty self sufficient and has an auntomatic feeder but still needs play time! We typically play with her while the dogs are having their solo play time. I am flexible if the routine doesn’t go exactly to plan but I try to maintain their sense of normalcy!

Pet care experience
Hello! Thanks for visiting our page! My name is Taylor and I have been taking care of animals since my parents let me get my first dog, Sadie, at six years old. Years later, I turned my passion for animals into a career for almost ten years! I was a veterinary technician for multiple clinics in the Mid-South and loved serving the pets and owners of this community. In this role, I did everything from basic tasks like educating pet owners about their pet’s conditions to walking, caring or bathing the animals to more complex tasks like assisting with surgeries and aftercare to making sure every animal is taking care of. I have extensive knowledge of important warning signs of animal distress as well as experience administering emergency procedures like CPR. I am also comfortable with daily maintenance tasks like administering oral or subcutaneous medications. My spouse, Kiersten, is a natural caretaker and grew up with the two fluffiest keeshonds in the world and recently persuaded me to adopt two kittens from the same litter during kitten season! As a recent graduate, Kiersten works from home and is easily reachable if you would like photo or video updates! Health and safety are paramount for us and our clients. We require that ALL boarding and house sitting clients provide proof of veterinarian-prescribed flea and tick medication, as well as are up to date on all vaccinations and heartworm medications. This is because my spouse and I currently love and care for four pets of our own as well as provide care for multiple clients in and out of our home, at the same time. Our Crew: - Apollo, a gentle lab mix, has been with me since he was a puppy because I also adopted his mom, Koda, who has unfortunately passed naturally. - Dolly Parton, an energetic pittie mix who loves all dogs, found us running down the middle of Kirby Parkway. - Two kittens, Minnie a female tuxedo and Toulouse a male orange tabby. - And finally, a foster dog, Sammy the German Shepard. I have rescued dozens of animals including different ages and needs from an entire litter of puppies to senior dogs as well as animals with medical conditions. I have been trusted by friends, community members, and veterinarians to take care of dogs and cats in their own homes too! I took a break from being a veterinary technician to help support my spouse at the end of a difficult and expensive PhD program; but, I missed working with animals deeply so Rover is a great fit for everyone! We look forward to taking amazing care of your fur babies and surpassing your expectations of safe and attentive pet care in the mid-south! We prioritize the health and well-being of your pet. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, on veterinarian-prescribed flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and are up to date on vaccines. Please have documentation of your most recent prescription flea/tick/heartworm prevention dose and latest vaccination records.
Reviews

So grateful to have found T&K!! Amazing ladies and i love that they took good care of my boy. Quick to respond and sent a few updates. I really appreciated the “movie night” pics. It seems he had a good time. We hope to come back and highly recommend. See you soon!


Taylor and Kiersten did a great job with our two dogs. They house sat for 2 weeks and took care of our high energy young dog Belle and very grumpy old dog George Michael. They were very easy to work with/schedule and sent plenty of cute videos of the dogs during their stay. I can tell that Belle got all the attention she wanted while we were away. She loves to play and get pets and hugs, and is mopey if she doesn't get the attention she wants. She was completely content and not at all clingy/needy when we got home, so I think she had a great time with Taylor and Kiersten. They handled old GM's personality quirks without complaining, which we really appreciated - we know he can be a challenge! Both dogs seemed totally unfazed by us having been away for 2 weeks, so I think that's proof that they were well taken care of by Taylor and Kiersten! Highly recommended!

Foxy had a great stay!
Thanks so much!
