About Tara

Experience: 20 yrs

I have over 20 years experience house sitting and taking care of peoples horses, dogs, cats, ranches and farms. I lived on an island for several years where I took care of people's homes and horses as well pets during the summer and winters. I was responsible for maintenance of homes, generators, boats, docks, using typical farm equipment on barns. I have a crane card and have experience running equipment if necessary. I love enjoying the presence of dogs, cats, birds, warm and cold blooded small critters as well. I had a small hook bill parrot for 15 years and am comfortable taking care of your feathered friends as well. I enjoy hiking and being outside and can walk your dog or even cat when needed. If you need me to walk your pet or give a pee break we can negotiate price depending on distance and needs. If your looking to have me house sit I charge $80/day.

Tara house sits for me often as I work on a Tugboat and I'm often gone from home for several days at a time. She looks after my dog and does repair work around the property. She is handy & reliable. Charlie my dog likes her company. Otherwise I have nobody to look after him.
