Active animal lover here!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of animals since the age of 11, I adore every animal so so much and always give the best care and attention. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, ferrets, and chinchillas! My friends and relatives have always trusted me and relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away on vacation or work trips! This would typically consist of walking, feeding, bathing (if need be), playing and spending time with their pets. I’ve taken care of both puppies and senior dogs! Animals bring me so much joy and taking care of them and keeping them happy and healthy means so much to me. WHAT I OFFER: - DOG WALKS: On the 30 minute dog walk, your pet will be looked after in many ways. When dog walking, I carry numerous things with me to ensure every dog walk will go smoothly. These consist of: lots of poop baggies, a collapsible water bowl that’s cleaned after every walk if used, always at least 1 tennis ball that squeaks, travel size dog wipes in case paws become really dirty, and high quality treats with natural ingredients such as Bocce’s, Blue, Full Moon etc. While walking your dog, expect many pictures! I’ll love snapping beautiful images of your dog while we’re on our walk. Your dogs safety, health, and happiness our my priorities during these walks. DROP IN VISITS: I would absolutely love to drop by and spend some time with your pups and or cats! This would typically look like me stopping by, greeting your pets with much love, then checking if they have food depending on your feeding time requirements and any special needs they may have. I’ll be sure to give them water and make sure they’re staying hydrated. I’ll spend time with them, give them lots of pets, loving talks, and some play time with toys. If need be i will of course also take them for a walk. I can’t wait to spend some quality time with your fur babies! Drop in visits are especially great for dogs that are anxious or can’t be alone for too long, I’d be doing my best to comfort them and keep them happy! Above is just a rough outline of what I’m able to provide. Communication of any special requests etc are always welcome and encouraged! (another important piece of information about me: I’m vaccinated and double boosted. I’ll always wear a mask in your home for the safety of you & your family & fur babies as this pandemic is still at large)

I’ve known Terresa since middle school and she’s always shown her passion for animals and how she adores them. She’s grown up with animals all her life and she’s always cared for them and loved them to the fullest. She’s a great pet owner and animal lover.

When Terresa messaged me asking me to leave a testimonial for her, it made me so happy. I used to work with Terresa a couple years ago, we became really good friends and one day I had a family emergency. I had to fly out of town to be with a relative in the hospital, I asked Terresa to drop by my home a few times a day to walk my dogs and take care of them. She was more than happy to do so and explained to me that she loves being with animals. She sent me so many pictures and videos while she was with them, she provided the best care for them. So once she told me she was going to start working on Rover, I just had to write a testimonial. Book with her! She’s the sweetest.

I met Terresa in high school during our sophomore year. Upon getting to know her, one of the first things she told me was how much she loves animals. As her friend, partner, and supporter I’d like to say I have seen this woman care for animals in amazing ways. She truly has so much love for them, everyone and anyone can trust her with their pets.

Terresa was one of my previous neighbors. When I saw how she was while walking her dog, I didn’t even think twice about asking her to come and walk my dog twice in the day while I was working a double shift. She has always taken care of my dog Lucky and he loves being around her so much! I remain in contact with her to this day just in case I’m ever required to do a double again and need her help!
