Safety, trust & environment

I will communicate with the pet owner to make sure I understand the pet's needs and personality in order to provide the best care possible. I make sure to follow the schedule decided with the pet owner (eg usual time for meals and walks) to minimize any disruption to the pet's regular day with the owner.

Information Teresa P. would like to know about your pet

I think it is important to know aspects of the pet's personality that may impact every day care. This can include info such as if the pet has storm anxiety or if they know how to get into cabinets if not properly closed.

A typical day

I love play time with pets! I think it is important to provide enrichment to any animal's day so playing with different toys and treats (that are preapproved by the owner) is one of my favorite things to do! I'll make sure to provide as much play time as possible during my visits.

Pet care experience

I have been caring for animals since I got my first dog when I was 6 and began pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors when I was 11. I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes and needs. I have a cat of my own, as well. Previously, I worked at a nature museum and reptile pet store which has given me experience working with pets of all kinds such as guinea pigs, bearded dragons, snakes, and more. I can't wait to meet your pet!

I had a friend recommend Rover, as I was leaving for Ireland for 10 days, I was struggling to find someone trustworthy to take care of my pets. From my first reach out, Teresa responded promptly and put my mind at ease. Teresa did a great job, communicated and updated me frequently, my pets loved her! We had a great trip, and had no worries, THANK YOU TERESA!!! I would have no problem recommending Teresa to anyone, she did a wonderful job!

Teresa was fantastic! I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs with them. Both my dogs and my house were well cared for. I’d definitely book her again and refer them to anyone!

Teresa was wonderful with our older, anxious dog, Comet. He was calm and well cared for when we got home. Great communication throughout. Highly 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.
