About: I have worked consistently with a couple families and several drop in services for family friends! I have taken the wonderful doggos on walks, assisted with their medications, fed them, provided baths/brushed their fur, gave them extra pets/hugs. I can provide basic animal care, I always do my best to observe their body language as well to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I have also helped with a special needs doggo who was blind, gave him his medicine, guided him through his backyard to use the restroom, etc. I would also love to provide any cleaning such as cleaning their bowls, vacuuming up any hair, cleaning crates, etc. I do work full time on the weekends during the night and a few days of babysitting during the day during the week, but I am always flexible with my schedule! I always listen to the let parents and how their schedule typically is and go off of that, I really do love animals so I’ll spend more time playing with them, especially if the doggo wants that play time and extra love!

About: Hi, I'm Tatum! I grew up in a multi-pet household, so I'm comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between! I offer drop-in visits, overnight stays, and dog walking and am happy to coordinate feeding schedules and playtime for multiple pets.
