Pet care experience

Dogs are family here!

I have always loved animals and understand the importance of compassion, responsibility and trust when caring for pets. I volunteered for 10 years fostering lost and or abandoned pets. Fostering gave me valuable experience of understanding routines, medication instructions, providing companionship and attention to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I take pride in being responsible and trustworthy. Pets are safe, cared for and treated like family.

I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is a true animal lover with a natural gift for caring for dogs. From the moment she meets a pet, she treats them as if they were her own...showering them with love, attention, patience, and compassion. What sets her apart is the genuine care she has for every animal in her care. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, administering medications, or simply providing comfort and companionship, she goes above and beyond to ensure each dog feels safe, happy, and loved. As a pet owner, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your dog is being cared for by someone who truly enjoys being around animals and treats them like family. Any dog would be lucky to spend time with her, and any owner can have complete confidence that their pet is in the very best hands.

I am happy to recommend Teresa Jackson as an exceptional pet caregiver and or dog sitter she has cared for my pets on multiple occasions. She is very attentive and reliable. She loves all animals as if they were her own. Ms. Jackson always kept our pets on their schedule and gave them plenty of affection and attention. We always receive pictures and updates and it really helped ease our mind. Ms. Jackson is very professional, but very caring and loving to our pets. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Jackson to anyone seeking a trustworthy, dependable and compassionate dog sitter. I am confident she will be a valuable caregiver for any pet owner.

I’ve known Teresa for over 30 years and she has always been an animal lover. She is incredibly compassionate and has always taken such great care of all her animals and treats them as well as she treats human family members. She shows them love, talks to them, makes sure they have their exercise and medications and love and treats. If I could be an animal in Teresa’s care, I’d be one lucky pup or kitty!

Teresa is a long time animal lover. She has fostered dogs in the past until they found their forever home. She also watches dogs while their owners are away. She is a loving, caring, trustworthy,and responsible person. Her experience with dogs makes her the person you would want to care for your dog when you are away.

My preference is friendly, predictable and calm temperament dogs, small to medium sized. Familiar with Frenchies and or flat faced dogs that require special care not to become overheated. Must be good on a leash if walking is required.
