Terra’s initial meeting with us was a wonderful experience. Her genuine love for animals and her exceptional care for them, treating them like children or family members, truly impressed us. We were reassured by reading Terra’s reviews that our two-and-a-half-month-old, Smokey, would be in excellent hands. Terra asked all the right questions about medications, which Smokey didn’t need. She also inquired about our veterinarian, and we provided that information. She meticulously followed our feeding schedule, ensuring Smokey’s well-being. If you’re planning a long vacation, a short trip, or a weekend getaway, Terra is the ideal choice for taking care of your furry companions. She’s not just a caretaker; she’s a dedicated and attentive individual who ensures that your pets receive the utmost care and attention. We would give Terra a million stars if we could, but unfortunately, five stars is the maximum rating allowed. Terra’s exceptional care and attention to Smokey made a lasting impression on us. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have our little guy in her care.

Terra was super nice and commutative and really cared for our two pups wellbeing. Our two dogs can be a bit much at times but she had no problems with them and they were happy as ever when I picked them up. Would 100% recommend if you are looking for someone to watch your dogs.

I am a veterinarian and have known and worked with Terra for many years. She is a true animal lover and she is extremely responsible, careful, and knowledgeable. She loves all animals and you can trust your fur baby will be in excellent hands with Terra. I highly recommend her!

I am a veterinarian. I know Terra from our work together in a veterinary clinic. What I witnessed of Terra‘s work was a very strong work ethic and honesty, combined with a big heart and tremendous passion for the animals she cares for. These are rare traits to find in people, and they are not things that we can teach necessarily. Terra has them innately, and I believe she will make a wonderful addition to your family care team.

Safety, trust & environment

I want animal parents to feel completely at ease knowing their pets are safe, loved, and put before anything else. Any specific requests or needs will be fully respected. I am also able to provide additional pet services.

A typical day

I am very interested in animal behavior. I love to learn their personalities and adjust myself accordingly. I have always talked to animals. It's amazing the connection and understanding that can come about when you have strong empathy towards animals. I will follow their lead. If it's cuddle time, talk time, play time, I am more than happy to accommodate. One fun thing about me is I have always naturally come up with certain words or voices that are very specific to each animal. It makes me very happy to see how much they love it. Whatever they need or want I will do my best to supply.
