Lover of all dog and cat breeds!
Pet care experience
I love dogs and cats and love spending time outside. I believe that both cats and dogs have their own personality and are just as fun and creative as we are. I currently do not own a cat nor dog but I do dog sit for friends whenever they need to travel for work or for fun. I currently do home visits for cats as they don't require much but clients are more than welcome to drop off their cats at my place as well. Both cats and dogs are welcome! I used to own a dog but he passed away and I haven't had a dog since but truly have a passion for pets. I do train for 5k, 10k, and marathons so if your dog is a runner then he will enjoy running with me as I love to run it is one of my hobbies. As for cats if they just want the company then I'll be right there with them too after my long run to relax and hangout with them. I do love hiking although I haven't invested much time into it. I am currently in school to finish my degree in Biology to work in Pediatrics. Any other questions you have please feel free to send me a message!
Reviews
Theresa has been my go-to for a few months now and always takes such great care of my dog. I'm lucky to have found her.
Our dog seemed to have a good and safe time. Sitter did not provide proactive updates, but provided updates when we asked. One flag: her profile says she doesn’t have kids in the house, but when we picked our dog up from his stay, the sitter mentioned that our dog barked at her child. We had no idea that she had children (her profile says she doesn’t) and would not have had our dog stay at a home with children. Not cool.
Theresa was great! Loved the pictures and the update.
Theresa was great. Very responsive.

Information Theresa B. would like to know about your pet
If there is a dog or cat that needs something specific or likes something done a certain way, knowing ahead of time would be nice so I can accommodate the needs of your pet. I will do my best so that your pet feels safe and loved. If medication needs to be given I have experience with both cats and dogs. I just ask that you type a list of the times and how much needs to be given so I can follow that routine. Some pets are more comfortable with you bringing their favorite bed, cover, or toy so please feel free to bring that along to have during the stay. I do ask for you to provide feeding bowls, food, and any treats you would like for me to give. One favor I do ask since they are staying at my place as a curiosity it would be nice to have a clean pet, if during the stay they tend to get themselves dirty during the walk or has a party in their litter box no worries I can take care of that and clean it up. As pets need to have fun too!
A typical day
They will definitely go on long walks with me and if they love to run they are more than welcome to join me on a run as well. I love spending my time outdoors when the weather is nice.
