Bark Meow PDX

Tamela has known my two dogs since they were we pups. She helped me train them when they were young, and has watched them over the years when I travel for work. Her talent is being able to read where a dog is at very quickly, and to establish herself as the calm leader of the pack. My dogs always return happy after a stay with her.

Tamela has taken great care of our pup Ruby twice now. The first time she was 5 months old and this time at 10 months old. We love that Ruby just moves in and is a part of the family. Tamela sends pictures and texts with updates and is responsive to all questions. We are grateful for her!

Tamela is the only trainer/pet sitter I trust. She understands my anxious doggo and does everything to help him live his best life. She’s gentle and fun and genuinely cares about animals.

Our little guy Scoutie, who has a lot of emotions, needed a caring heart and a lot of skill from any person as a caregiver/trainer. Tamela is so in tune with her animal clients. Her direction for us and for Scoutie have always made our experiences ideal. If you have a worried dog, Tamela is the _best_ you can ask for.

Tamela was so sweet with my old man dog. Gave him pets and meds and hang time. Once there an emergency and she took control of the situation and handled it professionally. She really cares about your pet's comfort and does her best to keep them peaceful while youre gone. 🙂

Tamela was great! Tilly says ‘Thank you!"🐾for making it so much fun to learn not to dash out the front door! It’s made her Mom’s life so much less nerve wracking too!

Tamela has been instrumental in helping both of our small rescue dogs. She is the perfect blend of dog and human trainer. She is companionate to each dog's unique needs while being a leader that instills confidence to overcome their reactive habits and fears. I couldn’t recommend her more!
