Pet care experience

Dogs, cats, fish, lizards & more!

Hello! My name is Taylor and I am a full time pet sitter. ❤️ I made the transition from Marketing to full time pet care about a year ago and I can confidently say it was the best decision I've ever made! What I love most about job is seeing how every pet is an individual who teaches me something about being a better human. My goal with every client is to bring you peace of mind that your baby is enjoying their own mini vacation while you're away taking care of your own vacation or taking care of your responsibilities. I am happy to help with simple drop-in visits like scooping litter, and more complex visits that require garden/plant care and special attention to pet behaviors like fearfulness, anxiety, reactivity, medical needs, etc. I believe every pet deserves patience, curiosity, and respect so if you think your pet might need extra TLC I'd love to hear from you. Whether it's frogs, dogs, cats, rats, lizards, guinea pigs, snakes, turtles, or fish - everyone deserves to be cared for and loved. I have a fun, loving, and calm presence well suited for nervous pets and I do ask owners please be honest with me about any reactivity or aggression their pet has shown in the past. The more honest we can be the better of a nanny I can be, even if it's just a handful of visits. I am happy to accommodate boarding requests but your pet must be cat friendly, not chew on household items such as shoes, bark excessively, or use the bathroom inside the home. Please note I cannot work with pets that have been acclimated to punishments such as hitting, yelling, threatening postures, or extended periods of isolation. If your pet requires this sort of behavior from their handler I will not be able to assist you. If you are looking to move away from these behaviors and towards more positive reinforcement and playful redirection, I would be happy to speak with you. Please message me with any questions you may have! ❤️ I would be happy to discuss whether I am the right person to care for your babies and do my best to help. Thank you!

This was my pup, Miley’s second stay with Taylor and she’s the best! She sends so many pics and updates throughout the day and Miley always comes back super happy and relaxed :)

Taylor took excellent care of my 3 kitties! Even my super shy little Floof loved her.

Taylor was absolutely fantastic with our pup Blue. She was very communicative with us and clearly has a lot of experience working with animals. We also got lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. We’d definitely book with her again!

Taylor is a total animal whisperer! My pets gravitated to her instantly and I felt so much better knowing they were being shown so much love and care! Taylor was super communicative and sent me photos the entire time!

Schedule

Now Rovering full time and able to spend all my time giving pets, taking walks, and playing outside. I have a lot of patience for animals who need a little extra attention due to age, anxiety, health, and energy level.

Safety, trust & environment

Consent first. I respect pets' boundaries and allow animals to approach me on their own terms. Trust is built on mutual respect and I prioritize calmness during inconvenient and stressful situations. I prefer over communication and frequent updates so my clients have clear expectations. I have two older cats who are friendly to dogs. :)
