Pet care experience

Home-body and animal lover!

I’m a pet sitter with experience caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats, each with their own personalities, routines, and needs. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away: whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping their routine consistent. I provide regular updates and work closely with owners to make sure expectations and care needs are clear so everyone feels comfortable during the stay.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are important to me. I make sure pets have fresh water throughout the day, clean food and water bowls, regular potty breaks, and attentive care based on their individual needs. I’m mindful of food allergies, dietary restrictions, and keeping unsafe items out of reach. Walks and activity levels are tailored to each pet; whether they enjoy longer walks with nice views, multiple shorter outings, playtime, or relaxing at home. I also love sending photo updates!

Teresa is the best! My Dog and Cat don’t even miss us. We have had her house sit them 4 times now and we always know they are in good hands. Thank you Teresa, we are grateful for you.

This was our fourth time having Teresa house sit and care for our big goofy dog 🐕 and spicey cat. 🐈‍⬛. Once again they are super happy and well cared for and we are very appreciative of the care and attention to detail Teresa gives them and their needs. I highly recommend her and already have another week booked with her later this summer.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Teresa. This is our second time having her house sit and care for our dog and cat. It was last minute due to a death in the family, then our flight home was cancelled and she stayed an extra night and that really helped by taking care of our fur babies and it was one less thing to worry about while scrambling to get another flight. She is so thoughtful and really cares. We are already talking about the next planned vacation and hoping she can care for our babies again.

Teresa exceeds expectations. We have never used a pet house sitter and we’re always fortunate in the past to have family that could help. Teresa took such great care of our dog and our cat, I think she spoiled them (in a good way), and they barely missed us. Tons of updates to us, and walks for our dog. Lots of snuggles and attention for both. I told her not to worry about clean up because we have someone who helps weekly, but she even washed the bedding and swept to the house before she left. She is very kind and thoughtful and I will be reaching out to her for future pet house sitting.

10/10 never stressed about my baby Nala. I know she was totally okay with Teresa from the moment I met her. Photos and updated constantly, understood her feeding and walking schedule as a puppy. We moved from Greece and didn’t really know anyone who could do watch our puppy and I like to think we hit the jackpot. Thank you Teresa and can’t wait for Nala to hang out with you again 💜

Sadly I will not be using Teresa again. I left clear directions regarding timing of house/dog sitting. I have cameras on outside of house so could see her come and go. She left my dog alone 2x for 12-14 hrs. Even after it happened the first time and I was clear that she needed to be at the house. It happened again a day later. She had excuses each time that in no way should have kept her from being at the house as she was getting paid to. I have used her before with some minor issues. Coming and going at weird hours and walking dog extremely late at night. But I thought with clear written instructions and checking in it would be ok. My dog was very anxious when I returned after 5 day trip.

Schedule

I strive to accommodate each pet’s routine and spend quality time with them throughout the day. For house sitting, I discuss schedules and time-away expectations ahead of time to make sure I’m the right fit for your pet’s needs. If needed and my schedule allows, I may work remotely or adjust plans to provide additional companionship and care.

I enjoy caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities! Before a stay, it’s helpful to know your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, energy level, medical needs, allergies, medications, bathroom habits, behavioral triggers, and how long they’re comfortable being alone. The more I know, the better I can provide personalized care.
