Availability

I am retired, so I can be available most of the time. If you need someone to pop in and let your pup out in the middle of the day while you work, let me know. Need someone to check in on your newly spayed or neutered kitten, I'm a text away. I will try to have the calendar updated so you will know when I am available. Please book a minimum of 60 min. per visit. You're away, from home, and they are alone. Let me give them some extra time to comfort and play with your babies.

Unfortunately, I will not care for your furbabies in my home. The stress on your babies and mine would make their stay most uncomfortable. That's why I will only care for your babies in their comfortable environment. You're away, which is stressful enough, why place further stress on them by bringing them into a place where the smells are different, they don't know the rooms, they don't have their necessary stuff? Please book a minimum of 60 min. per visit. You're away, from home, and they are alone. Let me give them some extra time to comfort and play with your babies.

Information Terri M. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog or cat afraid of storms? What calms your dog or cat? Is your dog or cat food aggressive? Is it ok to give your dog or cat treats? Are you ok with your dog or cat learning new tricks? Please book a minimum of 60 min. per visit. You're away, from home, and they are alone. Let me give them some extra time to comfort and play with your babies.

A typical day

Frisbee and fetch are two of the games my dog enjoys. In addition, searching out great places to explore is one of the best ways to spend time. Two of my cats and my dog are employees; they follow me around the property and hang with me when I have a fence to mend, or a screen to repair, or a plant to place in just the right spot.

Pet care experience

I've had cats nearly all of my 63 years on this earth, and dogs for 13 years. I currently have 8 cats ranging from 2 years of age to 8 years old. All were rescues, and/or feral. To entertain their wild side, I built an outside catio for them that is 10' x 16' with multiple upper ledges for them to spy on the world. They also have an inside catio with several windows to watch the guinea hen, chickens and other birds that come to visit. My dog Abi and I have been best buds for 10 years. She loves to play in the fenced in yard that is over an acre in area. Her favorite catch games include both the ball and frisbee. She's a natural at our 3 acre property walk searches for cool rocks and plants, and a fantastic travel companion who loves glamping! She is getting into her elder years physical limitations, so we take it easier than a few years ago.

Terri is the absolute best going above and beyond when caring for your pets. While out of town she came to the rescue with drop-ins. Her daily communication and photos added a sense of comfort knowing the fur babies were in great hands.

Terri is wonderful! She put my mind at ease. I knew my pets were being taken care of. I appreciated the pictures and communication. I will definitely use Terri again the next time I go on a long trip. Five fabulous stars!

Terri is one of the kindest most loving people I’ve known. Not only would I trust her with my fur baby, I’d trust her in my home. She is dependable, kind and loving.
