"Life is better with dogs!

Life is better with dogs—and my English Bulldog, Dolly agrees! I'm a retired, lifelong dog lover and owner with 6 years of experience caring for dogs for family and friends. I offer boarding at your place (possibly with my dog, Dolly tagging along, if you are OK with it), dog walking, feeding visits, and playtime visits, all with lots of love and attention for you fur baby! I have always had dogs in my life, many reaching senior age and even a couple with medical issues, but all have been well cared for and loved beyond measure. As I said before, life truly is better with dogs!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for dogs at your location, I always provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they feel safe and receive plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and walks. It is my goal that your dog feels relaxed and happy under my care, and I will do my very best to make sure of that! Since I'm retired with a very flexible schedule, your dog will not be left alone for extended periods and we will enjoy plenty of companionship throughout the day. My English Bulldog, Dolly, is friendly, easygoing, well-behaved and gets along well with all other dogs. She enjoys having a playmate, is always happy to make a new friend, and she sleeps a lot! lol! If possible, I love to have her join us when I am sitting for other dogs. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and provide owners with peace of mind knowing their fur baby is in loving hands.

Terry was absolutely wonderful and provided really thorough updates throughout our trip! She was on time and asked some really great questions during the meet and greet to make sure our boys were taken extra good care of, would highly recommend booking Terry!

Terry is great with dogs! She’s very communicative, friendly, puts my dog first! I have a very particular dog with lots of anxiety issues and Terry is always mindful of her and treats her with the utmost respect.

10 STARS Terry’s level of care for all animals is beyond expert. She is reliable and trustworthy and can anticipate the needs of your pet immediately. I highly recommend her for boarding and any other services she provides for your fur family. She always ensures daily exercise and enrichment.
