About Taren

Experience: 9 yrs

With firsthand experience as a pet parent to a dog and cat, I understand the importance of compassionate, attentive care. I have also fostered three additional pets, giving me experience with animals of different personalities, ages, and needs. I specialize in senior pet care and have supported pets through complex medical and aging needs, including end of life care. This experience has taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of closely following each pet's routine. I enjoy engaging pets through walks, interactive play, enrichment activities, and plenty of comfort and companionship. I tailor care based on each pet's energy level and personality to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away.

Taren took great care of our pups. She took them on long walks, played with them, and sent daily updates.
