Pet care experience

I can and will take care of any animal! Since the service section and prices are mainly for dogs, just ask for a quote for any other pet! I'm flexible and willing to work with you on pricing! So I'm a medically retired Air Force vet of 12 yrs and I'm also do a show on Discovery channel called Naked and Afraid. I was raised in the country where we had cats, dogs, pigs, chickens, ducks, horses, cows, you name it. After I went into the Air Force, I started taking classes and studying herpetology. I also worked for PetLand on Mary Esther cut-off in Florida to practice husbandry and some vet tech techniques. I had snakes, lizards, turtles, and dogs in my house. I've been a fan of animals my whole life. My dog is my kid. I mean, if you expect her to stay home alone for a night with no way outside, no one making sure that she is fed and watered, you have lost your mind. I will be more than happy to help you with ANY animal you have! I have the time to do it and the experience to do it well! If you have a bear, hand me his schedule and we'll do this. NOTE: My rate will fluctuate depending on the animal, but, not a lot. I'm here to help, not to get rich.

Our Meet and Greet with Terra went very well. His dog, Wanda, and my Mazie were fast friends so I knew Mazie would have fun playing while I was gone. Terra has a big fenced in backyard that was great for her to get plenty of exercise and he sent pics and videos of Mazie which gave me peace of mind. I would definitely trust him with Mazie again.

Information Terra S. would like to know about your pet

I would definitely like to know his attitude, demeanor, and obviously anything that would impact their care like meds, foods, blindness, fleas, etc. Important things. The only.... ONLY..... Dog breed I will REFUSE to sit for is Cerberus.

A typical day

This depends on your regular activity with your pet. If you walk your dog but don't let him get rambunctious in the house, then that's what we do. I follow what you normally do closely because of the Pavlovian Response. If I grab a leash everyday at 4, the dog will learn that exact time (ish) or hear the door open and expect to go out which isn't fair to them. If it's ok to play and get rowdy, then we'll do that till he/she is tripping over their tongue.
