Pet care experience
I’ve had personal and professional experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I worked in an animal shelter in Baja, Mexico as an adoption representative/caretaker and assisted the head vet with minor medical procedures. I facilitated daily care of 15-20 dogs, including administering medications. I’ve also worked with trained therapy dogs as a wilderness therapy guide, keeping K9s safe, warm and fed in in all backcountry weather conditions. In addition, I’ve cared for working farm dogs and cattle herding dogs in an agricultural setting.
Reviews
Tziporah is the absolute best dog sitter we have ever had! We have always had multiple rescued dogs as part of our family (now is no exception - three!) and finding a good sitter with their special needs is challenging. She took such great care of our babies and gave us constant updates. She went above and beyond. Highly recommend.
Tziporah was such an amazing sitter for our energetic pup Otto. She took him on a ton of adventures and sent lots of updates and pictures. She is so sweet and thoughtful and took great care of our home while we were away for five days. We came home to a tired and happy pup. Can’t thank you enough Tziporah!❤️?
Tziporah was a terrific dog sitter and helped check in on my Aussie. She communicated in a timely manner, was very attentive to my dogs needs and has always been reliable. I would recommend!
Tziporah was great walking my 9 Mo old golden retriever Thurman! She got back to me very quickly when I needed someone for a few days to walk him in a pinch, flexible with her schedule and open communication. It made my day to see her photo updates. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment
I believe in play based learning both for the kids I teach and the pets I care for! I love nourishing dogs of all ages with play, exercise, and love. I'm happy to meet the expectations of your family with regards to behavior and boundaries. If there are any specific training practices you'd like me to follow, please let me know. I am an avid runner and would love to take your dog out for up to 10 mile trail runs, depending on their activity level.
Information Tziporah L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs for their care. I'd love to know their name, age, breed, activity level, and a little about the things they enjoy doing. Every dog is unique and I adjust my care to each one.
A typical day
I love taking dogs outside in all kinds of weather. Depending on their needs, I love to hike or run with them and can tailor the mileage to their activity level. I'm a great tug of war athlete and love playing fetch as well. Snow, rain, or shine, I'm happy to get your pups out and about!

Tziporah can watch in your home
Availability
I’m currently a freelance writer and novelist working primarily from home, so I’m available for most of the day to spend quality time with your pet. I work occasionally as a substitute teacher, which would require me to be out of the home during the working day.
