“Christina is communicative, flexible, and caring. Our dog was feeling a bit nervous in a new environment and Christina did her best to support our dog while we were away. When we picked up our dog she was happy and healthy! Thank you, Christina!”
“Lucy had a great time and I felt very comfortable knowing she was in loving hands ❤️ they were also very understanding and flexible! Will definitely book with them again!”
“Lyssette and her family are the best! Remus, the dog, hangs out with her pup and is cosseted and loved during his stays. This is Remus' second stay and we hope to continue booking her excellent services!!!”
“Tara is the absolute best. We had an emergency where we needed to drop Malu off that night within 15 minutes of reaching out to her actually. Tara without hesitation said yes met us outside to snag Malu as we were in such a rush and was even flexible on us pickup Malu back up. I'm beyond particular when it comes to my girl and who watches her I would hands down recommend Tara any day of the week.”
“I cannot recommend Juliann highly enough. She was extremely patient and accommodating while taking care of our dog Ringo for 4 nights. Ringo can be a little anxious in new environments such as while we’re away but Juliann was very understanding and willing to do whatever she could to provide a calm and comfortable environment for Ringo. Should we need a place for Ringo to stay again, I will feel very fortunate if Juliann’s schedule is free and Ringo can stay with her again.”
“Kevin and Atalaya were absolutely fantastic! We are so thankful that we found them, they have a wonderful property where the pups can play and roam! It was absolutely perfect for a dog, who came home tired and happy as ever! They made sure to take lots of videos and pictures that put our minds at ease while we were away! We can’t say enough good things! We will definitely continue to book them!”
“Melani was great taking care of CalCal my goldendoodle. We met up beforehand to make sure my dog would get along with her dog. She sent many photos during the boarding. Would use her again; thanks Melani!”
“So and John were the best sitter for our 2 dogs. We got lots of updates throughout the weekend and they were very flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend them to anyone! 너무 감사합니다”
“From taking notes at the meet & greet with loads of great questions, to having a really careful approach to introducing her own little dog to the river guests, I felt really confident that Finn would get great care! Definitely will book again.”
“This is our second time leaving our Charlie with Suzanne and, again, she did a great job with him! She took good care of him and texted us daily updates with pictures while we were away. We enjoyed our vacation knowing that Charlie was in good hands with Suzanne!”
“We have used Tawna & John 3 times so far. Every visit has been a wonderful experience for both our dog and us. The facility and their communication far exceeded our expectations. Dropping our dog off is never stressful because we know she's going to have as good a vacation as we are. She LOVES going to the farm and interacting with other dogs while enjoying the love and care she receives from Yawna & John.”
“Paula is friendly and so knowledgeable. Her dogs were great playmates for my dog, so I got a happy, tired out pup when I came for pick up. Paula was flexible with me on drop off and pick up times due to icy roads - I really appreciated her kind demeanor and quick communication.”
“Isamar and Caleb took Ripley in on short notice and over the holidays, which was a huge relief. On top of that they were fantastic sitters making sure our dog was as comfortable in their home as she was ours. We received daily pictures and updates. I would highly recommend their services and hope to book them again myself.”
“Allison was really easy to work with. Her and her family took good care of my dog and responded timely with updates when I checked in. I would gladly work with her again in the future.”
“Another great visit with Hayley and Graham. Our pup Kingsley loves staying with them and playing with the other dogs who are in their care. We look forward to another visit soon!”
“Ron was very helpful taking my young energetic pup on pretty short notice for a long weekend! He was patient with her and definitely gave her some good outlets for play with other dogs because she was totally tired out when I picked her up.”
“Barbara is a really warm person who my dog took a shine to right away. I was very comfortable leaving my little buddy with her and it sounds like they had a great time 🙂”

“Jessica was AMAZING with her drop in visits while we were out of town. We have a kitty with a terminal illness and she was able to give daily meds and spend quality time with our kitties. She also braved a snow storm to make sure that our kitties were well taken care of. Our cats were happier and feeling more social by the time we got home than they normally are after we’ve been out of town. We couldn’t recommend Jess enough and we will be rebooking with her for any upcoming trips we have.”
About: If you’re looking for a safe, loving place for your dog while you’re away, I’d love to help! I grew up surrounded by animals on a Japanese maple farm with over 20 horses and lots of dogs, both indoor and working dogs, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and training backgrounds. I am a student and only have one in-person class this term, giving me lots of availability for quality time with your pup! I live in a cute, quiet neighborhood near a park and walking trail, and I usually go for walks in the mornings and a couple miles before dinner when my partner comes home from work (weather permitting). I’d happily bring your dog along for those little adventures so they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and stimulation. I believe mental and physical exercise is very important for all breeds! After walks and a lot of playing, I make sure to keep track of any supplements and food schedules needed (usually by setting reminders and alarms on my phone) I also know how important peace of mind is while you’re away, so I like to send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pup is doing. If you have any questions or want to chat about your dog’s specific needs, feel free to reach out. I’d love to meet you both!
“Emma is just who Purru needed while we were on a weekend getaway, just two weeks after a move. We came home to a happy, content cat, which is a wonderful thing! Emma , thanks for spending your weekend with our sleepy senior kitty girl, and for your patience while waiting for the key.”

“I feel confident leaving my cats in Jaime’s care. They are shy cats, but she takes time to engage (if they are willing), and Jaime gives me daily feedback regarding their activity or pictures of them hiding.”

“Alisha took care of my golden retriever while I was away for a long weekend. She was extremely communicative throughout the whole process and gave me so much ease leaving my baby!! Very responsible and great with my dog! Highly recommend”
About: I’m a new stay at home mom looking to hang out with your furry friends while my best friend is at school! I have 5 years experience with all types of dog breeds ! I am newly home full time during the week. I would like to fill my day with lots of wags and pets ! I am very flexible. I have 3 pups of my own with a fenced yard as well as separate run if needed. Spacious living area for all pets to relax in their home away from home .
“Michelle is absolutely AMAZING! I don't even know where to start with this review to express how thankful I am to have found her! We have two cats, one of whom can be a bit of a handful. My husband and I had never hired anyone outside of friends or family, but that wasn't an option for us this time, and we feel so lucky to have found Michelle. Upon meeting the cats, we knew she would be a great fit. She was calm and respectful, and continued to be absolutely amazing with them and with our house while we were gone. We were gone for two weeks and then hired her again for a shorter vacation -- and both times, she was just fabulous. She was always on time, left detailed updates, and fun and sweet photos of the cats. She is extremely reliable and did everything we asked for perfectly for the cats. Plus my extremely shy and neurotic cat was able to trust her, which is a huge deal, and a testimony to how great she is with animals! I have a hard time trusting people with my cats, and I didn't worry even a little about leaving them in Michelle's care. I can't imagine ever hiring anyone else after having worked with her, and I absolutely would recommend her to everyone out there!”
“We cannot say enough good things about Erica. This is the third time we've had her stay with our cats while we've been away. We know our pets are given lots of care and attention, she sends us updates during the stay, and makes sure the house is clean and tidy when she leaves. She will continue to be at the top of our list!”
“Meagan took wonderful care of our sweet Ellie Mae. Ellie quickly warmed up to her, much quicker than we anticipated. Meagan sent pics of Ellie and kept us apprised as to how she was doing. We will definitely use Meagan in the future. She even left us a thoughtful surprise.”

“Matt was a wonderful pupsitter for our somewhat neurotic, slightly clingy Frenchie. 😀 We left Maisey with him and his wonderful family of 6 dogs for only a couple of hours but during that time he sent a text update on how she was doing and took pics of her playing in the backyard. We rarely leave Maisey with a stranger but Matt made us feel super comfortable and we had an excellent experience!”
“Penny had a great day with Christina! During the day, Christina sent me photos of Penny and updates on how she was settling in and getting on with her family furry friends. Christina is super friendly and a great communicator. I felt totally at ease leaving Penny with her.”
“Megan did a great job sitting with Duke in our house and kept in touch during her stay with texts and photos. We are planning a trip later and will use Megan again for house sitting.”

“Jill was wonderful! Super easy drop off and pickup for our day trip to Willamette. We felt comfortable leaving our dog with her. Riley was happy and tired when she finished her visit. Thank you, Jill!”
“Lauren was great! She was flexible & accommodating, loved on our Tucker dog, who can have high separation anxiety, and communicated with us through the day to let us know how he was doing and to verify any concerns. It was a blessing to have her watch him for the day, allowing him to join us on this trip but to know he was in good hands while we completed activities he could not join us for. We would definitely use Lauren again!”
“Chloe and her family took great care of our pup when we were in town for a softball tournament. She was really flexible in accommodating our last minute game schedules for drop off and pick up. ?”
“This was my first time using Tawyna & John P "Clay" for doggy day care, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. Clay was professional from the start and always prompt in responding to my questions, which I really appreciated. When we arrived, he took the time to give me a tour and patiently answered all of my questions. The multiple levels of fenced kennel runs with bark chips were very well done, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that both of my Weimaraners were safe and secure. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time! They came home happy and happily worn out at the end of the day, which says everything. I’m so thankful for the care Clay provided and would absolutely recommend him to others looking for a safe, well-run place for their dogs.”
About: If your dog loves walks, attention, and being treated like absolute royalty… we’re going to get along great 🐾 I’ve been dog sitting for over a decade, and at this point it’s less of a job and more of a personality trait. I walk my own dog three times a day (yes, we’re that kind of household), and I genuinely can’t wait to add your pup to the routine! I’m fully that girl who has to stop and say hi to every cute dog I pass—and by the end of it, we’re best friends. So just know: your dog is not getting casual care… they’re getting full-on obsession. Your doggo will get plenty of walks, love, cuddles, attention, and playtime from me and my sweet girl Sparrow. Think of it as a little vacation where they’re the main character 💁♀️ Can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new favorite human (besides you of course!) I work 8-5p M-F but work from home 3 days a week and have availability to walk early mornings, evenings, and during my lunch breaks! My weekends are typically very free and are usually filled with park visits and walks! I treat other dogs just like they are my own, and my girl is treated like an absolute queen! I make sure doors are securely closed, that anything potentially harmful is stored away, and always take weather into consideration when walking (if it’s over 80 degrees out, I will provide boots to ensure that pups don’t get their paws burned!) I make sure to bring water and poop bags and will always communicate if something seems off.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole entire life, a dog is a man’s best friend in my opinion. I currently got a 2.5 yr old English bulldog! His name is Wu-Tang😎 I’ve taken care of a lot of Frenchie’s for Crown bully farms, and still currently am. I would be available almost everyday, to walk feed or “dog sit” I am available M-F and Saturday.. get in contact with me for more information, TIA. I have a fenced yard at home, and there would be plenty of water for dogs outside. And will only feed dogs food that is provided for them..
“Alexis and Jacob watched Baja for the first time and it was a total success! Baja is very sweet but can be a handful and so we were pretty picky about who could take the reins after her last sitter moved. Based on the friendliness, competence, reliability, and great communication we experienced with Alexis and Jacob, we’re thrilled to have a new loving and safe place for Baja to stay when we’re gone.”
“Hannah was great. She was very flexible and punctual and cared for our pup well. It was nice knowing our dog got to enjoy farm life. She even washed him when he got muddy. Very kind.”
“Vanessa was flexible and able to accommodate the changes I made. I appreciate her so much for that. She sent updates with pictures throughout the day. Thanks Vanessa!!!”

About: I’m Christina — a lifelong animal lover based in beautiful McMinnville wine country! Find me on insta @ GomezGetaway Myhome is full of love, fun, structure, and lots of tail wags thanks to our own pups, Mazie & Louie! I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so my goal is simple: I want your pup to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and part of the family while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, couch cuddles, sunbathing, or just a calm environment to relax in, I work hard to make their stay feel like a little getaway of their own. I provide personalized attention, frequent updates/photos, and a warm home environment with lots of supervision and care. I currently keep my bookings intentionally small so each dog gets plenty of attention and a low-stress experience. This also allows me to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and needs so they feel right at home. What you can expect: 🐾 Frequent photo updates 🐾 Safe, loving home environment 🐾 Flexible communication 🐾 Personalized care & attention 🐾 A fun but calm atmosphere Bonus: your pup may even go home with a cute photo, treat, or little surprise from their stay 😊 I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy it—it’s something I prioritize, not squeeze in. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday activity, or evening wind-down time, I make sure each dog’s needs and routine are followed closely so they feel comfortable and cared for. I work full time at home! My job is flexible and allows for play time, potty breaks and lunch time walks! I have a large fenced backyard where your pup is free to play, explore and potty! I have two additional fur babies who will keep your pup company! Your pup will likely spend most of the day with me inside, in my office. I give my pups space to roam the house if they want, but they generally sleep on the couch behind me. I am also able to crate your pup if that's what they're used to or comfortable with. I am flexible to your needs!
“Alex seems very experienced with dogs. My dog can be intimidating at first and tends to play hard to get. Rizzo is often hesitant when meeting new people, but Alex has been patient and has taken the time to build trust with her. She continues to work on strengthening that bond, and I think Rizzo will really grow to love her. It’s been great to see how understanding and dedicated Alex has been throughout the process”

About: I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I treat every dog with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own. I have experience caring for dogs of various ages and breeds, as well as multi-dog households in a variety of settings. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated and at ease. Pet care is my full-time focus, and my schedule is built around providing dependable, attentive care for the pets and families I work with. I prioritize consistency, communication, and making sure each pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I provide care exclusively within my clients’ homes, as I believe pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. Throughout all services, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal schedule while providing companionship, exercise, structure, and attentive care. I respect each client’s home as if it were my own and value cleanliness, security, and clear communication. I also provide regular updates and photos for added peace of mind and carefully follow all care requests.

About: I was raised in a multi-animal house with multiple dogs and cats. Both of the dogs me and my family have taken care of are extremely high energy breeds with both a cattle dog and cattle dog / husky mix. I have house sat for multiple friends and family members and have had extended stays on my Grandfathers farm taking care of chickens, alpacas, and horses. I will be prepared for anything your cat or dog may throw my way! I am currently home from college for the summer. I have almost complete open availability and am willing to work some overnight hours (minus a few weekend nights here and there). I understand that taking care of dogs is a full time job that requires a lot of structure and timing. I have a firm knowledge on feeding schedules and the needs of animals as well as a desire to keep them both physically and mentally happy. I am physically fit myself and am willing to exercise dogs that may need the additional physical activity.
About: I have been an animal lover since a young age, and have been caring for dogs since 2011. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and all ages in between. I have experience in training my own dogs and in practicing commands as asked when puppy-sitting. I've even trained my cat to give high-fives! I also have experience in administering medication, both oral meds as well as eyedrops. Our 14 year old labradoodle gets eyedrops twice daily, which I administer. I bond easily with animals and love dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I love getting to know animals, and have a knack for bonding with anxious, shy animals. I am also okay with brushing and bathing, etc., as asked if needed. I am typically available all day on the weekends and most Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am in grad school for the next two years in Forest Grove and classes occur around 9am-4pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I may have time for quick home visits for potty breaks during lunch on these days, if needed. I am happy to spend quiet time with pets who are more mellow, or to spend time playing or walking with energetic, younger dogs if that suits them best. I typically observe the dog's behavior and notes from the owner when deciding what to do- are they looking tired and calm? Are they a bit riled up and could use a playtime or a walk? I will follow any instructions left by the owners, as well. If there is anything specific or special you'd like me to do for your pets, just let me know!
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life — with over 10 years of personal ownership and experience in dog sitting, walking, and training. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments — from laid-back seniors to high-energy puppies. I’m especially experienced with young or active dogs and love providing high-energy play, consistent routines, and plenty of cuddles. I’ve also trained dogs in basic obedience, hunting, and even service dog skills, so I’m comfortable reinforcing training while you’re away. I offer walking, feeding, crate training, medication administration, and overnight care — and I always tailor my approach to your dog’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a calm, consistent presence or someone to match their zoomies, I’ve got you covered! I’m currently on summer break! I’m available weekly for dog sitting (overnights or daytime care), dog walking, drop-ins, and more. House Sitting: Please keep in mind that I do not provide constant care at my listed rates. If you need constant care, please reach out to me about my rates. I have my own dog to care for, as well as walks and drop-ins for other clients throughout the day. I always make sure pets are not left alone longer than the agreed upon timeframe. But if you need constant care, I will make sure to block off the dates you need for your pet(s) only! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space and routine with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, walking routines, crate time, or medication needs—so your pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment. I’m also happy to continue any training or reinforcement you’ve already been working on, whether it’s basic commands, crate manners, or specific behavior routines. Consistency is key, and I always strive to keep your pet’s progress moving forward while you’re away. I aim to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible, offering them love, play, and structure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m tidy, responsible, and always make sure your home is just as you left it—or better. Your pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.
“My husband and I met Alisha in October for a meet and greet with Milo, our mixed yellow lab and golden retriever. The meeting was for an upcoming trip during the Christmas holidays. We instantly liked her, she was on time when she came, she was professional, she bonded right away with Milo. Soon after I booked a three day walk in November just to reconnect again with her. It was for a 30 minute walk and again she was on time and I love the fact that I get a text and a pic of the walk. Tomorrow will be the start of a 13 day house sitting and we feel confident about the whole thing knowing that Milo will not be neglected. We’re glad we came across her at Rover. I highly recommend her.”
About: I've been a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I've been the primary caregiver for my dog for 8 years and my cat for 3 years, and I've also cared for birds, hamsters, and fish. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of reliable, attentive care and will treat your pets like my own. I work full time M-T and would be willing to do a later evening drop in, but have my Friday afternoons and weekends available any time! Your pet's safety is my top priority. As a pet owner, I understand that every animal has unique behaviors and needs. Having cared for dogs with a tendency to bolt, I am especially mindful around doors, gates, and leashes and always take extra precautions to prevent escapes. I will carefully follow your pet's routine, respect your home's rules, and provide a calm, secure environment while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind.
About: I've been taking care of dogs for the past 9 years. From owning dogs to dog sitting. I am comfortable walking, feeding, grooming, training, playing, and staying overnight with any age of dog. I really enjoy being around puppies and have a good understanding of what senior dogs need. I am comfortable with both high and low energy dogs. Have a skidish or shy dog? I have experience with them too. I am home from college for the summer and have plenty of time on my hands! I'm very flexable with times and am more than happy to wake up early or stay late! I will communicate with the pet parent to understand the pets needs and figure out plans to prevent or deal with various potential shenanigans the furry friend may come up with.
About: I have grown up my entire life with all kinds of pets including cats, dogs, gerbils, fish, horses, and more and have always genuinely loved caring for animals. I especially have a soft spot for cats and dogs and I can't wait to meet your pets! When walking dogs I will be sure to take your pet on safe, engaging routes for them so they can get plenty of exercise. I will be sure to give them plenty of extra love and attention as well! I have many years of house and pet sitting experience and will take the time to follow all your specific directions. Whether its extra clean up around your home, specific pet bedtime routines, (I personally love giving my cat, Schmendrick special bedtime treats!) or anything else pertaining to excellent care for your home and pets, I am happy to provide it! I love taking pictures of animals and will take the time to send photos and frequent updates on how their doing while on our walks or while you're away. I understand and believe that all pets are family and I will absolutely treat yours as such!
About: Hi there! I am a fun, genuine, pet lover who loves animals with my whole heart, especially dogs. I have had multiple pets my whole life and am very well versed in taking care of animals. I have been caring for pets professionally for about 6 years taking care of and pet sitting for friends, family and on care websites. I am very flexible with rates, hours, and needs of animals and no job is too gross or taxing that I can’t figure out. I truly love that I get to care for animals AND get paid doing it, it honestly feels like a dream. Let me know if you are interested in considering me to take care of your sweet fur babies, I’d love to tell you more!
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets throughout my life. This has included cats and dogs mostly! I have preformed walks, feeding and making sure the pet has water and giving out plenty of love and pets! I have dog walked, and done drop in visits for one family in the last year which included 2 cats and one hedgehog! I would love to have a dog of my own but don’t have the time due to my job. I can help walk on weekends and week nights after 5pm! I make sure to spend time with and take great care with the animals. I love dogs and all other animals so much and know how important they are to people, so I extend that same love.
About: Cats and Dogs have filled my house ever since I could remember. I have helped care for neighbors and family members animals over the years and helped maintained their safety and health. Taking them for walks, giving them snuggles and a bath when needed. I have been around dogs of all breeds and am very comfortable with them all. Needless to say, almost every animal I’ve been around has adored me just as much as I adore them. Your pets are promised safe hands when cared by me. I just graduated college and am working to start a business so am looking for side gigs to do that will allow me to continue to work simultaneously. I love pets and will be home for the next year so have an open book for watching pets. In my clients home I would be very mindful of the pets environment and take them for walks along with feeding and snuggling afterwards or beforehand. Respecting my clients property and accomplishing my job safely and responsibly.
About: All my life I’ve been surrounded by dogs, and their company has always brought me so much joy. I truly believe everyone deserves the happiness a dog brings. I currently live with four cats, one of which is named Ricki — who honestly acts like a dog himself and loves going on walks and car rides. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, dogs with disabilities, and dogs who experience seizures. I love taking pups on walks (weather permitting), going to dog parks so they can socialize, and giving them plenty of love and mental stimulation. I’m a strong believer in animal rights and I never take their trust for granted. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me. Rover is an amazing way to find someone you trust with your best friend, and I would love the chance to care for and look after your pet like they’re part of my family. I live right in town with a reliable car, which makes traveling to and from jobs easy. I currently work a couple of part-time jobs, but I’m able to schedule pet care around them with plenty of availability. I’m flexible, responsive, and able to make mid-day visits, morning/evening drop-ins, or full days depending on what your pet needs. When caring for pets in my home, I always keep the space clean, safe, and comfortable. I make sure animals have fresh water, the right amount of food, and a calm environment. Cats always have clean litter, and dogs get supervised outdoor time and structured care. In a client’s home, I follow all routines exactly as instructed and treat your space with respect. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first.
About: If you want your animals to be well cares for, tired from playing and treated like a family member, I am the right choice for you! I have always had animals in my life! When I turned 18 I got myself a puppy. I have trained and taken care of her for the past 7 years! My friends and family often come to me and ask me to help when their dogs are misbehaving because of how well my dog is trained. I have dog sat many times over the years and figured I should get paid for it now. I work a full-time compressed schedule. Due to this I always have 3-4 days off a week. I am looking to fill some of that free time with something I love doing. Walking and taking care of animals! I already walk my dog so I would be happy to walk yours as well! I will drop in when needed and let your animals out to go potty. I can feed them if needed and play with them until they are tired! I can accomadate almost anything.
“I recently got a puppy and booked an hour with Erica as part of his socialization process, to get him used to spending time with strangers. Erica and her daughter did an amazing job and I could tell Raider warmed up to both of them right away and felt very comfortable. It’s SO important for young puppies (especially giant breeds) to have positive experiences with new people. Thanks for helping to make sure I don’t wind up with a 120lb dog that’s afraid of people 🤣🖤Very much appreciated! 100% recommend”
About: "Experienced and reliable pet caregiver with a passion for animals. Skilled in providing personalized care, including feeding, walking, grooming, and administering medications. Adept at handling pets of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, with years of experience ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dedicated to building trust with both pets and their owners through attentive and compassionate service." Pet care fits into my daily routine by starting with feeding and ensuring fresh water first thing in the morning. I then take the dog for a walk or engage in some playtime to burn off energy. Throughout the day, I check in to ensure the pet has everything they need, including meals, bathroom breaks, and comfort. In the evening, I provide another walk or play session and spend time bonding. I also make sure to administer medications or bathe the pet as needed, all while keeping their space clean and comfortable. As a pet sitter, I enjoy engaging in fun activities like playing fetch or tug-of-war, offering puzzle toys for mental stimulation, and taking daily walks. I also make sure to stick to regular meal times, give bath time when needed, and administer any necessary medications. My goal is to provide a routine that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable while their owners are away.

Tara without hesitation said yes met us outside to snag Malu as we were in such a rush and was even flexible on us pickup Malu back up. I'm beyond particular when it comes to my girl and who watches her I would hands down recommend Tara any day of the week.”

She LOVES going to the farm and interacting with other dogs while enjoying the love and care she receives from Yawna & John.”
