About Tara

Experience: 7 yrs

I'd describe my personality as friendly, dependable and trustworthy I like working with animals because they bring joy and happiness to my life. I'm looking for a job that I can add to the happiness of myself and the pet. I started working with animals when I volunteered with the humane society as a teenager. I got my certification from the American academy of dog grooming in 2022 In my spare time, I like to go to museums, parks and work out. One thing you should know about me is that your pet will be in the safest hands. I will guard your pet with everything that I have. I anticipate needs and am fully prepared and stocked to see to it that the pet has what they need at all times. I show love and caring and affection. Hugs and kisses are always available to them. My skills include dog bathing of all sizes. I am a great walker with control of the leash and attention to bikes, traffic etc. if they go to a park, I am attentive to the other dogs and maintain their safety.

To Whom It May Concern, I highly recommend Tara for pet sitting services. She cared for my two dogs while I was away for a week, and I was impressed by the constant updates, photos, and genuine love that she showed. I came home to happy, healthy pets and a tidy home. She is reliable, trustworthy, and a true animal lover. Sincerely, Capri
