Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pups fave place to stay & play
What sets me apart is my lifelong love for dogs combined with my nursing experience. 🐾 I’m a former hospital nurse who now works from home, I aim to provide a safe, happy, attentive environment tailored to each pup’s individual needs. I have two spoiled pups of my own, Lemon and Goose, who I’ve raised from puppies. ❤️ I’m also just 8 minutes from a pet hospital for peace of mind, and I offer flexible, commuter-friendly hours whenever possible. As a fellow 9–5er, I know how stressful daycare drop-off and pickup can be, and I want to make it a little easier for other pet parents!

Safety, trust & environment
Safety, Trust & Environment 🐾 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a nurse, I’m naturally very attentive to changes in behaviour, health, and overall wellbeing, and I take routines and individual needs seriously. I want every pup to feel safe, relaxed, and at home—not simply “watched.” I provide a calm, loving home environment with supervision, attention, and positive interaction. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for with the same patience and love I give my own dogs, Lemon and Goose. ❤️🐶 I’m happy to snap photos and video updates of your fur babies throughout the day to help you rest assured they are safe and happy whenever requested!
Ratings and reviews
Taylor is a loving, caring, and trustworthy person who I feel lucky to know. She is wonderful with pets and has a natural ability to connect with animals. She is especially gentle and patient with my high-anxiety dog, taking time to understand his triggers and help him feel safe and comfortable. I’ve seen her calmly earn his trust in a way few people can, and it has made a real difference in his anxiety and behavior. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter—she treats every dog with genuine love, patience, and care.

Schedule
Because I work from home, I’m able to provide a consistent routine while still keeping a normal workday schedule. Full-day daycare fits naturally into my day, with plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, exercise, attention, and downtime between my work commitments. A typical day might look like: 🌅 Morning: Potty break, breakfast, and some playtime/attention before settling in. 💻 Morning workday: Dogs relax, nap, or enjoy quiet enrichment while I work. 🐾 Midday: Potty break, walk/playtime, and some one-on-one attention. 💻 Afternoon: More downtime and supervised relaxation while I finish my workday. 🌳 Late afternoon: Another potty break, playtime or a walk, depending on your pup’s energy and routine. I understand that every dog has a different routine, so I’m happy to work around their individual needs, energy levels, feeding schedules, and medication requirements whenever possible!
