Dog hair is my go-to accessory

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of friends, family and neighbors dogs since I was 9. They trusted me to feed them and give them plenty attention as well as going on walks.

Taylor is always so great with our boys. She keeps them happy and healthy while we're gone, and the apartment is always cleaner than we left it. She also sends lots of cute photos! We really appreciated her availability on short notice for a family emergency this time.

As always, Taylor was super friendly and our boys were so well cared for. Our apartment is better than we left it, and both dogs are happy and healthy. We'll definitely have her back!

The dogs love Taylor! She great to communicate with and always leaves the house so clean! This is our second time using her and we will definitely book her again.

This was the first time we've left our second dog since we adopted him, and Taylor took amazing care of both of our boys. We came home to two happy and healthy dogs, and Taylor took great care of our home too. The boys love her and are so excited when she arrives. We'll definitely have Taylor back the next time we need a sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

When walking dogs I like to make sure their collar is on tight enough so they won’t wiggle out of it but loose enough that it’s not choking them. Normally I bring a bag with me in case they need to go to the bathroom as well as some treats since some dogs do need the extra motivation to continue walking. If I’m at someone’s home I normally just like to keep an eye on them at all times in case anything happens. I will normally be around them though to give them attention and of course to play with them!

Information Taylor R. would like to know about your pet

I think it’s important to know if a dog isn’t good with other dogs as well as being uncomfortable around strangers. I don’t want to put a dog in an environment that they aren’t comfortable with. I also think it’s important if a senior dog can’t move around well and needs some extra help getting around. I want to make sure they are comfortable and having a good time!!

A typical day

I love to play with dogs which some prefer that while some like to play with other dogs. I don’t mind taking dogs to dog parks unless I’m told they aren’t good with other dogs or people. If that’s the case, I either take them on walks or figure out the best kind of play style for them. I have two dogs of my own, that need mental and physical stimulation so I’ve learned ways to do so like hiding toys/ treats and having the dogs find it or even doing basic training as well as simply taking a long walk. I also know that some dogs just prefer to be pet and cuddled which I love to do as well! I also occasionally will take my dogs on a car ride but I am aware that not all dogs are fond of that. I am willing to do whatever to make sure your dogs are happy and healthy!
