Pet care experience

Multiple pets? Exotics? I got it!

Have you ever described your home as feeling like a zoo? Me too! I’ve always lived with multiple pets, and currently have 7! Whether you have teeny gerbils, feisty cats, stubborn little puppies, gentle giants, one pet or many, perhaps special care is needed, I’ve done it all! My experience with pets that require special care include: total blindness or deafness, diabetics, seizure risk, separation anxiety, limited mobility, use of diapers, special diets/medications, post surgery, and those who need extra patience. I have experience owning and caring for a variety of small pets like guinea pigs and aquatics. My goal is for you to feel confident in your decision to work with me and trust me with the care of your precious pets! I am a very thorough person and pay high attention to detail, ensuring the wellbeing of your pet and cleanliness of your home each and every time. Please check my calendar to see if I can accommodate your request, I have more info on my schedule down below. I will happily schedule a free Meet and Greet before booking. I always look forward to seeing their furry faces again sometime! I am fluent in American Sign Language if that is your preferred language 🤟🏻

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

While providing care for pets, I follow any instructions, no matter how silly it may sound. Avoid walking down a street because your dog or another is reactive? Serving meals like it’s professionally prepared? Transform their medicine into a cheesy treat? Special words to use or still in training? I’ve been there, done that. Maintaining their familiar routines from wake up, feedings, enrichment, training, till bed time keeps pets at their happiest and on their best behavior.

We left our one-year-old Australian cattle dog mix with Taylor for 6 days (first time we've ever left Tilda with someone overnight since we're had her only a few months), and Taylor did a STELLAR job. We had had her over before to show her the ropes with our Tilda care, so during her housesitting stint, she reinforced what we'd been trying to teach Tilda and also added some good things from her own extensive experience with dogs. We were completely at peace with leaving Tilda in Taylor's care, and we came home to a better-behaved dog!😄 Taylor has got her house sitting routine down pat. She brings over her own stuff and then is fine with sleeping in your (clean) bed. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She's a mature professional who is up to any dog challenge.

Taylor is great! She was wonderful with all our cats and the house looked great as well. We look forward to hiring her again.

Taylor was the best! The dogs loved having her watch them. If you get the chance to have Taylor watch your animals, you won’t be sorry.

Taylor was super flexible with our requests and sent plenty of pictures and updates of our dog. She came a few days early to do a meet and greet and we got to chat and she got to meet our pup in order for her to feel comfortable when she came for her visit. I would definitely recommend her to watch your dog!

Taylor is such a gem! I don’t worry a bit when she’s at my home watching my fur baby! Highly recommend!

Schedule

This summer, I will be available daily for multiple drop ins and walks. My house sitting availability for the summer is quickly becoming limited. During the school year, I work 8:30-3:45 near Fort Wright. I do many stays Friday after work till anytime Sunday. I am willing to house sit M-F if your pet is able to be alone from 8-4:15ish or if they have an afternoon break/walk by someone else. Locations like Oakley, Hyde Park, Rookwood, Newport, Cov, Dayton, Ft Thomas, Ludlow, similar areas all work well for me! Weekends I am able to be anywhere in the Cincy area.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Taylor can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
If your pet requires any type of medications, please let me know what methods work for them to take it. I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve for those who are less willing. So far, my own pets have been more difficult than others! I’ve provided liquids orally to squirmy guinea pigs, eye drops to feisty kittens and whiney pups, pills hidden in cheese, yogurt, whip cream, hotdogs… you name it!
