Information Teresa A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any particular anxieties or triggers, for instance fear of vacuum cleaners, or stairs. I want to make sure their experience is as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

Frequent walks in my neighborhood keep things active. I also like to take my dog friends for walks at a local lake. Watching wildlife from a safe distance is fun and stimulating. Playtime and nap time, and we might learn some new tricks.

Pet care experience

I volunteer for the local shelter, and I'm passionate about rescue. I have fostered cats and dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as post surgical. Most of the animals in my care have required daily medications, so I am capable of sitting for animals with special needs.

Wonderful and personal care for my old girl Ellie! She was happy and following Teresa around when I picked her up.

My dogs got the best treatment-walks and lots of TLC. Made our vacation so relaxing knowing they were in great hands.

Teresa watched our 7momth old pup while we explored the biltmore. Sent plenty of updates, and pup was healthy and happy at pickup! Slept the full 3hr drive to our next stop! 10/10 would recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
