About Tamara

Hi there!

My name is Tamara and I love animalsssss! I grew up with pets, so I've had dogs, hedgehogs, lizards, fish, and cats (of course)! I currently have one cat, she’s a senior, but still my little baby and I love her with all my heart. I am (was) a zoology major, I completed a honours program while living in South Africa studying black rhinos and lions. I have also had the fortunate opportunity to volunteer at a vet clinic, and numerous wildlife sanctuaries across the globe (South Africa, Zimbabwe, Bolivia, Peru), so when I say I have dedicated my life to animals, I genuinely mean it. I am responsible, caring, I will listen and follow any and all instructions given to me to ensure the safety and quality care of your pets!

During visits, I will clean the litter box, change water and replenish food and give lots of head scratches and/or belly rubs. I will treat your animals like my own and give you plenty of updates (pictures and videos, any amusing stories). I have a car to get to and from locations, and willing to take dogs on more exciting walks in parks with open spaces. I am comfortable giving medication when it is required, and I am a professional poop and vomit cleaner (if need be, hopefully not haha). I really just love animals and am looking to earn some extra income while spending time with creatures whom I adore. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! My rates are reflective of: I stay for an hour on my home visits to play and hang out with your pet, I walk for an hour with your dog. Lastly, I try to operate within a 7 KM radius of my location where some type of free parking is available :)

Tamara was GREAT! Communication with her was easy, she updated us daily, and I felt secure with her caring for my cats while we were on vacation. Amazing!
