Highlights
Pet care experience
LOVE is a four legged word!
I’ve been around dogs since infancy, and every family dog has always become my dog. I spent over 25 years loving large breeds and said goodbye to my heart dog, Sasha, after 15½ years a few years ago. I’m experienced with senior care, including medications and injections, and I care for every dog as if they were my own. I’m located in Orange County, conveniently situated about 15 minutes from Disneyland and 10 minutes from Knott’s Berry Farm, with easy access to the 405, 605, and 91 freeways. Major cross streets near me are Lincoln Ave and Walker. I work remotely from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. While I do travel occasionally for work, I’m not in a position to commit to another forever pup just yet. That said, I truly believe a house isn’t a home without a pet—and while the timing isn’t right for a permanent addition, it’s perfect for welcoming part-time furry friends! My home is mostly carpeted, which is especially comfortable for larger dogs and senior pups who may struggle with or avoid tile or hardwood floors. Lastly, while I absolutely adore cats, my allergies don’t share the sentiment—so my home is best suited for dogs only.

Ratings and reviews
We had another wonderful experience with Terese watching our little Pomeranian, Rosie! We received regular updates while we were away on our vacation, and we could tell Rosie was having a great time and very comfortable with Terese! We highly recommend her!
This is our second time leaving our fur baby with Terese. Terese is a fantastic choice if you are looking for someone close to Disneyland to look after your little one while enjoying the happiest place on earth. Terese sends updates throughout the day. Allows your little one total freedom on her furniture and bed . Terese is very loving and treats your little one like her own. Don't look any further if Terese is available!
Terese is always amazing but this time she went above and beyond. My dog got sick while I was gone and she cooked chicken and rice for her to settle her stomach. Then when it didn’t work took her to the vet. Ended up she had pancreatitis. So she then administered her to meds, got the special food and gave me lots of updates on how she was doing. It was great having someone who knew what to do in the moment and took action.
Terese is wonderful, loving and so attentive to Max. The best compliment I have is that I don’t worry about him when he is with her because I know he’s in great hands!
Nikita had a great as always!
Terese is our go to. Max loves her and with good reason. She is so loving and kind to him and he thoroughly enjoys his time away!

Schedule
I work remotely from home so will have plenty of time to play with your puppy and take them for walks or simply let them be on their own if they wish in my yard to chase the squirrels.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large, fully fenced yard where your fur baby can zoom, sniff, and stretch their legs to their heart’s content! There are also two large doggie doors, so indoor‑outdoor access is always on their schedule. I don’t have any pets at home and will only host multiple dogs if they’re from the same family. My Sasha was the queen of her castle and preferred it that way, so I keep things calm and cozy—making sure every pup here feels safe, spoiled, and right at home.
Pets
A typical day
I love getting in my daily steps and would be thrilled to take your fur baby out for a neighborhood walk. At home, I’m always up for a good game of fetch in the backyard—whether that means tossing the ball a few times or having a full‑on play session. Keeping pups happy, active, and having fun is my favorite part of the day!

- Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences—I’m always happy to accommodate when possible. I can welcome up to two dogs from the same family; just let me know if your pals have any food aggression and need to be fed separately. My home is carpeted, and while your dog will enjoy plenty of outdoor time, I can only accept housebroken dogs to help keep everyone comfortable and happy.
