About: Leave your pets and home in loving care with me and enjoy your time away worry free! Hi I'm Tatiana and I love animals! I promise to treat your fur family like they are my very own and pamper them with love while you're away. My house sitting rates are for overnights only. That covers a 12 hour period. If you need 24 hours of care let me know and I will share those rates. ✅ I have no problem administering medications or caring for special needs animals, if needed. ✅ I have a great system for following pet routines, helping to keep young ones on track with their training and all pets comfortable in the routines they are used to. ✅ Dogs get special attention with me! If they are able, I will usually take them outdoors for some fresh air and fun! ✅ A free bonus your pets will receive in my care is a massage!! I am a Massage Therapist and one of the courses I chose while in school was Dog, Cat and Horse Massage. It was important for me to understand pain relief for my animal friends as well as my human clients. ✅ I have cared for animals for my entire life. As a child, I helped breed and raise parrots, cockatiels & finches. My personal childhood pet pack included a duck, a dog and a cat who were best friends. Followed by multiple cats, a turtle, a snake, three rats, two hamsters, three rabbits and three aquariums throughout my life. ✅ My Step-Mother rehabilitated injured wildlife. It became part of my passion as well, helping a baby squirrel, baby opossum, many baby or injured birds and a raven all make it back to the wild before the age of eighteen. I started pet sitting not long after that at the age of 22. ✅ I have managed properties and estates throughout my years, as it was something I was instantly great at. Being very organized and clean, a genuinely independent person who can easily communicate with contractors, problem solve easily for my clients when they aren't available, and communicate with great efficiency and clarity with my clients when needed, I have found that my clients are very happy with my care of their property while they are on vacation or away for a season. 💖 I have flexibility in my schedule making it fairly easy to work with me when I am available. My priority is making sure you and your animal family are happy. I do not care for pets in my home. I can and will come to you when my services are hired. I mainly service the Mauna Lani, Waimea & Waikoloa areas!
