Pet care experience

Friendly pet loving retiree on call

Hi! I’m Terri. I’ve been known for decades in my community as someone helpful- someone to trust with animal care and community support. I recently retired and I’m excited to expand my pet care services beyond my regulars (who work with me for years) to new folks in our neighborhood. I’m especially interested in working with cats and with senior dogs. I am experienced in home visits in particular and my regulars always say their pets are exhausted and happy after I come over. A little about me- I am an avid reader and environmentalist, and I’m very active in my community. Last summer I worked Part Time on the clear creek trail as an ambassador. In my spare time you can find me in my garden, Birding, watching tennis, or visiting with friends. You can trust that I am reliable, conscientious, detail oriented and a great communicator by text and phone. Because of my recent retirement, I have a flexible schedule. Let me know if you think we might be a good fit or if you have any questions. Excited for more pet time in my life soon. :)

Terri was so great with my 9-month old mini Bernedoodle puppy. She just went into heat the day before Terri was watching her and that was (luckily) no problem with Terri. She cuddled her, fed her and did all the things I requested. I would love to have Terri watch my little Lucy again!

Terri did a great job checking in on our 2 cats while we were away for a whole week! We came back to them relaxed and in good spirits. We got updates after every visit, and she even snuck in an additional visit after we were worried about one of our cats hiding.

Terri stayed at our house for 3 nights taking care of 2 dogs and 1 cat. She did a great job with communication, sending photos, updates, and made sure everyone was happy. Will definitely be booking again!

She was great with our dogs. I'll always reach out to her first for care.

Terri was great as always with our doggos. We had a friends dog stay over and she was super accommodating to learn what that dog needed for care. She is always a pleasure to work with and will always be the first person I reach out to for care when I'm away.
