If you’re looking for something steady, structured, and long-term—and you take pride in showing up and doing the job right—we’d love to meet you.
At TAILored Pet Services LLC, we personally understand that pets are important family members. They hold a special a place in our hearts and in some cases become our children. We also realize that finding the right individual to take care of their emotional and physical needs is an important decision.
We promise your pets will always receive one-on-one attention, be watched by a consistent person and loved like our own dogs. You can leave your pets in the comfort of their own home knowing they will receive the same love and attention you provide.
Dog Care Services:
• Dog Walking: Sometimes it just isn't possible to walk our furry friends. My team/I will exercise your dog(s) so you find a cheerful and calm friend when you return. Whether your dog needs a leisurely stroll, brisk walk, or fast jog, these customized visits will happen regardless of the Pacific Northwest weather.
• In-home boarding: In-home boarding is very different from a traditional kennel because only 1-2 dogs from the same household stay with us at one time to ensure a personalized experience. We encourage our furry guests to relax/nap on the couches and utilize the floor for playtime. On warm days, we spend time in the fenced back yard so they can enjoy the outdoors. At bedtime, your dogs can to snuggle on the master bed or sleep in a dog bed on the floor like they would at home.
• Overnight Pet Sitting: We have a slumber party in your home with your pets as the guest of honor so they will remain in their own environment and maintain their normal routine. Our overnight services include dinner/evening potty break, staying overnight (including sleeping with your pet if that is part of the routine), breakfast/morning potty visit and other home-care tasks.
Clients love and recommend TPS. If you’d like to be put directly in touch with some of them, contact us and we’d be happy to connect you!
