Dog Mom w/Rich Fostering Background
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs my whole life, and am currently a dog mom of 5. For 16+ years I have also been fostering all kinds of dogs for local rescues. I’m experienced in dealing with various health, behavioral, social and emotional issues among dogs of all breeds, mixes and sizes. My own dog pack is experienced with socializing with new temporary pals in an ongoing basis.
Reviews
We were so happy with Teresa. She boarded our 1.5 year-old puppy for a few days—our dog looked so happy and comfortable within minutes of arrival and was exhausted when we picked her up (always a sign of a good time). Teresa was great at communication, sent daily photos of our puppy, and was very communicative via the app. we also really loved that Teresa had other dogs (both hers personally and others that she was boarding) so our dog really got to engage and play actively. We would definitely choose Teresa again!
This was a wonderful experience. My two sweet shy border collies do not warm up to strangers easily but they seemed to feel right at home immediately. Teresa is obviously a very caring and compassionate dog lover. I cannot give her a high enough rating. Will definitely be calling her for future times I need a loving home for my dogs.
Teresa was a wonderful caretaker for Auggie. She has a pack of dogs of her own and introduced Auggie very carefully into it. I felt totally comfortable leaving him in her hands. She has a wonderful fenced in back yard for the dogs to play and sent great photos of all the dogs together. Would highly recommend!
Ahsoka is a high energy pup and is properly tuckered out and allowed us to sleep in this morning! Mission accomplished for play date while we were out. Theresa was flexible with drop off and pick up, which was a huge help. Thank you!
