I have to say, wonderful communication, on time and very caring and personal with our dog and cat visits. We felt safe that they were home, comfortable, and in loving care. We would definitely choose Romy again!”

We trust her implicitly with our most precious loves and will plan our vacations around her schedule! Thank you, Tara!”

Thanks so much, Amanda!”

About: As a passionate animal lover, I've had many pets growing up. Most of them were cats, but 13 years ago I met my dog, Tasja. She has been reactive, more so in her younger years. Training, exercise, mental stimulation, and consistency were important to help sooth her reactivity. It wasn't always easy, but I've learned a lot! I’m a fairly calm person around animals, especially when first meeting them. I have a decent understanding of their body language, and a lot of that is due to not only working with my dog, but also from working at a vet clinic. Working at a vet clinic in the kennels was one of the most rewarding jobs I have had to date and taught me a lot about how to handle and care for different temperaments/ages. *Currently accepting new clients as of Sept 2024!* My walking/drop-in hours are from 8am-dusk on Tuesdays-Thursdays. I’m not available on Christmas or Thanksgiving. I also will only be accepting booking requests from those who live in Tacoma. Safety and trust are two of my biggest priorities while caring for your animals. On walks, I remain observant of my surroundings, the body language of your pup, and use positive reinforcement. I keep my demeanor calm, especially around reactive/nervous dogs. I‘ll also have water, treats, and doggy bags with me. In your home, I respect your space. I re-fill water bowls and am adamant about making sure the door is locked behind me when I leave.
19. Win M.
“Mary took such great care of our Cats. She was very communicative, bright, and positive. Everything was done correctly and with love and care.”
20. Sidnalaurel L.
“Makenzie has an amazing way with animals, she puts her whole heart into them. My dogs just love her!! She is reliable and responsible for my babies when I’m away. I can count on her and trust her ! I’m very blessed to have her care for my babies.”
