Pet care experience

Trusted In-Home Pet Companion

I've been caring for pets in their homes across New England for nearly a decade. I specialize in calm, consistent care—especially for seniors, pets with medical needs, and families who want someone reliable and intuitive while they’re away. I’ve handled it all, from midnight meds to tricky gates, and I bring a steady presence wherever I go. I care for your home as if it were my own. I know how to work the thermostats, the tricky locks, the pet gates that never stay shut. If something unexpected comes up, I know who to call—and how to stay calm. I don’t leave messes. I don’t flake. I show up, fully present, every time. Pets are our greatest teachers, and I take their care seriously. I use positive reinforcement, consistent routines, and meaningful engagement to help your animals feel relaxed, safe, and happy while you're away. Whether I’m administering meds, caring for a senior, or keeping a high-energy pup enriched, I bring patience and a steady approach to the job. My rates reflect the level of care, experience, and attention I provide—including overnight support, medication management, and senior pet care. I honor legacy pricing for long-time families, and I always prioritize quality care over volume. My goal is simple: to make your time away feel effortless—for both you and your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s day will be thoughtfully planned with walks, playtime with their favorite toy, or social interactions with other dogs—always based on their comfort level. Whether they thrive on companionship or prefer a more peaceful, private experience, I adapt to their needs. Above all, your pet’s safety and well-being remain my top priority.

Teri watched our cat and house sat on late notice and was great to work with. She took great care of both the house and our cat—going above and beyond giving him meds and cleaning her own towels and sheets before we got home. The daily updates on our long trip were much appreciated so we could see our cat was doing well. Would definitely recommend!

Terri took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for 6 days. The house was clean and pets were happy on our return. Terri sent us pictures several times a day with updates. I would highly recommend her.

Terri took excellent care of our super senior Ezra. She provided detailed updates and photos, and kept Ezra's safety and comfort top of mind. She is an incredible caregiver.

Animals find comfort in routine which is especially important for skittish pets when their owners are away. I work closely with you to plan visits and logistics, ensuring your pet’s schedule and needs are met. My goal is to spend as much time as possible with your pet, understanding what drives them and providing consistent, reassuring care. I’m experienced with all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats, and I’ve also cared for Boer goats, various chicken breeds, and even certain birds. No matter the species, I prioritize their well-being and peace of mind.
