Animal lover!
Pet care experience
I have had pets my whole life and I adore animals (more than people!). I'm one of those introverts who prefers animals : ). I live on an acre and a half in a cozy space I rent next to 12 chickens and Sissy Goat! My neighborhood has horses, trails and a dog park nearby. I am very responsible and trustworthy having owned a janitorial business servicing high end homes for 11 years. I loved my work and was known for being meticulous. I've been self employed in various forms for almost 30 years and despise sitting around! I'm currently getting my mind-body nutrition coaching off the ground with most of my work being from home. I need to stay busy so I love being active outdoors whether it's walking or working and I adore preparing food. I enjoy being a steward for our precious furry friends. They depend on us to take care of them as a part of our family. I rescued a puppy (see pic) from certain death in rural Alaska where I was working. I paid all expenses to get him back and found him a loving home. I also fed many starving dogs out there a few times a week in blizzard conditions (see pic). My heart just aches for neglected animals. I love every one of them.
Reviews
I was glad to return home and see my happy pets. All was well in their world. I think that Teri is more experienced with dealing with a puppy than I am. I commend her for her goodness of care.
Teri was great! I think she left the house in a cleaner state than I left it, which I wasn't expecting. My cat was happy to see me come home of course, but only a little! I can tell he got lots of attention while I was gone. Will definitely ask her to sit again!
My husband and I had to leave the country for 10 days due to a family emergency. Having just recently moved to the Phoenix area it was stressful looking for someone trustworthy to take care of our fur babies. We have a 3yo American shorthair and a 9yo schnoodle. Teri was terrific! She came over to meet us and the pets, asked questions and communicated with us the whole time. I wasn’t worried for a second about their safety and comfort. She stayed overnight and even fed our beta fish. We came home to healthy and happy babies and a fully clean house! I will definitely use her services again and I will recommend her to anyone that needs a worry free time away from home.
I felt so lucky to have Teri take care of my cat Rex while I was on vacation. She checked on him and played with him twice a day for a whole week and I am so thankful she cared so much about my precious little cat! He is such an energetic cat and she took great care of him. I would not hesitate to book Teri again.

Safety, trust & environment
When pets are in their own environment they are much more relaxed. Very little needs to change for them and this is ideal. This is why I keep my service prices on the low side because I want people to be able to afford the service. I love visiting other peoples homes & experiencing different locations. I am currently living in a very small space so to be able to spread out once in a while it’s ideal! I can’t have any pets of my own at this time so this gives me a fur baby auntie status : ) It’s a win-win!
Information Teri G. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I need to account for. This cuts down the learning curve a lot when first meeting and interacting with your pet.
A typical day
I am a walker so to have company is a plus! I prefer trails if they are nearby but just getting outside is good for me as well as your dog.

Availability
My secular work schedule can be a bit busy at certain times of the year. I do well with overnights when the schedule is flexible. I currently work long days Sunday, Monday and every other Wednesday in Goodyear and have long breaks in my day to care for pets. I'd be open to jobs out that way or anywhere on the far west side. I am not able to work North of Anthem or in New River.
