A loving, experienced sitter.

Pet care experience

This is how it all started, 8 years ago. My daughter who wants to be a vet when she grows up and I love all kinds of animals. We have had dogs, cats, fish, hermit crabs and a bird. We show our love for animals by walking and collecting donations for the annual hope for pets fundraiser. We will provide a safe, loving home for your pet when you are away. We will make your pet feel like part of our family. Thank you for letting us get to know your loved one. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs in my life as long as I can remember. I have never met a dog I did not like. Even those that bit me. Meet my pets Bird About my yard I have a small back yard that is not fenced in. It is a safe place for your pet to relieve themselves but not suitable for a good run. My experience administering medication I have give both oral and inject-able medications to my own pets in the past. I work full time. I'm available in the morning, after work and before bed for drop ins. I would prefer house sitting to limit commute times. I will do my best to mimick the routine you have already established with your pet. I believe this will limit your pets confusion in your absence.

Teri is an amazing dog sitter. Due to her flexible work schedule she was able to spend a lot of time with our dogs. I highly recommend Teri for your dog sitting needs.

This was the second time we used Teri. Overall, the stay was good and we trusted her to take good care of our pup! At times, communication seemed off, but she was quick to respond when we reached out to her. Kona seemed cared for and happy when we arrived home.

Our "little prince" Bentley loves his time with Teri. After a recent 10 day trip we returned home to a happy, calm Corgi. Thank you Teri!
