Experienced Dog/Cat Home Sitter
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm available to pet sit in your home. I work remotely so will be hanging out with your pet all day (and taking breaks to play or go for walks). I love animals and have lived with dogs and cats most of my life. In addition to Rover, I also have 10+ years of experience caring for other people's pets, usually in an informal word-of-mouth way - my college professors used to ask me to pet/house sit, and I've cared for the pets of people I babysit for, as well as being the go-to dog sitter for friends on vacations, so can give you tons of references! I'm careful, responsible, send lots of pics/updates, and will adore getting acquainted with your animal companion. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Reviews
Tara did an excellent job. Lots of updates and pics. My dog was happy and my house in good order when I returned
Tara was super sweet and communicated frequently while we were away.
Tara did a great job! Kept me updated and informed. Thank you so much.
Tara was such an amazing caretaker of my dog Lucky! She sent me so many cute pictures, took him on lots of walks, and my apartment looks so tidy! So thankful to her for house sitting!
About Tara S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I normally take care to pay attention to the owner's instructions. Other than that, I follow cues from the dog/cat/pet. They are usually pretty great communicators!
Information Tara S. would like to know about your pet
I really enjoy animals and haven't found one I couldn't sync with. They are pretty amazing! I like following Instagram accounts that emphasize positive re-enforcement training for animals (lots of praise:) @whataboutbunny is a favorite <3 :D
A typical day
I really enjoy taking long walks. Also playing with animals if they are into that (fetch, etc) petting/cuddle sessions, simple commands and rewards, and generally hanging out.

Tara can watch in your home
Availability
I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets. I do currently go into an office part-time, but they let me choose my own schedule and it's never for more than 6 hours at a time. The rest of the time I work from home (I am kinda a homebody/housebody except for walks and such) so will be hanging out with your pets.
