Safety, trust & environment

I offer a safe and engaging environment, with a decently secluded backyard that’s perfect for a fun game of fetch. Although we don't have a fence yet, the backyard is on a lower level than the street, and we will use extended leashes if need be. We also have a large deck where dogs can relax and watch birds on the river and enjoy the surrounding wildlife. Whether in your home or mine, I ensure that pets are given plenty of attention, exercise, and love. My goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared for at all times.

Information Teresa M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of anything I should be aware of beforehand. Don't be afraid to spare the small details or even create a list! I need to make sure animals have been treated for parasites and diseases that way I don’t spread any potential threats to other animals. Thanks!

A typical day

As an athlete, i'm big on making sure athletic breeds are properly entertained and exercised. I run with dogs, play fetch, practice commands with proper rewarding with the help of my my close friend Jackson Bartlett (also on Rover) who is very good with dog training and is currently training a south african Mastiff. I’ll be sure to play with them, i’ll also use youtube as well to stimulate the animal like finding mice videos for cats, etc! If allowed, trail walks would be great as well.

Experienced, Caring Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Mostly open schedule and full time Rover sitter for over 1.5 years now! ~ I just moved here from NH and looking for new clients! - As a young, energetic, and expeeimved pet sitter, I bring a selfless, athletic, and detailed approach to caring for your pets. - I can do everything from walks, feeding, cooking, eye drops and cleaning, medicine administration, playtime, and so much more. I truly make sure your animals is selflessly well cared for like my own. - I spent 2025 working almost every month with a client caring for their elderly dogs and cat in NH from 7 am to 11pm at night on a schedule created for them which I absolutely loved. This included cooking for the dogs, poop pickup, medicine administration, plant watering, feeding, and light cleaning. - in addition to my 1.5 working on rover with all types of animals, I’ve worked with athletic puppy breeds, cared for playful kittens, and owned a poodle for 10 years, giving me firsthand experience with a range of personalities and needs. My boyfriend has a 180lb mastiff and fish that I also co parent in my free time. - My background in house sitting and babysitting has instilled a strong sense of responsibility, but my true passion is caring for animals! I’m dedicated to keeping pets happy, active, and well-loved, ensuring they feel right at home while you’re away. I truly am 100% present, and make sure your pet is entertained, healthy, and happy. Bookings in Peterborough are most convenient for me! If you have animals over 70 lbs please message me and I’ll refer you to Jackson Bartlett who is phenomenal with larger breeds and great with training as well!

Theresa did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs at our home at kind of short notice after a change in our plans. She was great with both our dogs and was phenomenal at building trust with our shy younger dog. By the end of our meet and greet, Theresa had already earned love and attention and play bows from our nervous pup! When we came home, the dogs were so relaxed and had clearly had such a fun time. We’d recommend Theresa and would absolutely book her again in future!

Teresa was a wonderful house & pet sitter! Took very good care of our two cats and house, as well as giving our new puppy the love/attention/training she needed. She kept us well-informed while we were away, sharing pics and details about how it was all going. Thanks!!!
