About Tamara

I have always been in love with animals, dogs having been in my life from the very start. My childhood was spent with a cat, a rabbit and more than three dogs. Still, I only had the chance to experience my very own puppy when I was 21, after going to school in vet tech for 5 months. I adopted a nordic breed type pup I named Banshee. She was the first of many dogs, of course... And wild adventures! It brought me into a very fascinating world of sled dogs and rescue, where I took part into for a year, fostering over 25 dogs which I took home, cared for and found new owners for. I saw the sad truth that not every dog was lucky and a bunch had rough starts. I was unable to keep doing this amazing work, the money and space lacking due to moving out, but my heart knows that the day I will be able to help again, I will for sure! My basic knowledge, experience and contact with a variety of dogs (animals in general) from different lifestyles makes me very comfortable and relaxed around them, knowing how to handle situations and being unafraid of any breed/types. Currently living with my family and Banshee who is now 6 years old, I have decided to offer my spare time to people in need of pet services!

I have attended vet tech school for a couple of months, learning cat and dog behavior, basic care and needs, while also working with cattle in a dairy farm on the campus. I have personally owned/fostered degus, rabbits, chinchillas and rats. I also ran a sled dog rescue which fostered in a year over 25 nordic breeds which all got rehomed after care/sterilization. I am confident in caring for any type of cat and dog, behavior problems do not scare me. I do not personally work with chokers and leashes longer than 1.50 meter while walking for safety reasons. I can offer flexible services directly at your home for your convenience! I will also gladly walk your dog(s) for a good hour so he gets his needed exercise!

It is definitely though to leave your pets, but it is great to come back and see that they are perfectly fine. Tamara is very conscious and she knew how to deal with my complicated dog. She really cares and makes sure everyone is ok. Thank you Tamara!
