Upper Arlington pet & hourse sitter
Pet care experience
I've been dog-sitting, cat-sitting, and house-sitting for my neighbors and friends for 12 years now. I love going on long walks and spending time with animals! I am reliable and check my phone frequently. Bonus: I've been known to get the cutest pictures of my friends' and family's pets if you need more instagram pics of your dog ;)
Reviews
Theresa is a great sitter. This is the second time hiring her for drop-in visits and she is very communicative and reliable. I have two newer rescue cats that are still settling in and Theresa was understanding of their specific circumstances/needs and made sure they were taken care of.
Theresa is tried and true!
Theresa did an amazing job! We have an energetic puppy and an middle-aged dog and she handled them both with great care. She also kept the house in great shape, kept plants watered, and brought in our mail and packages. She was great with communication and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely use her again!
Theresa is thoughtful and communicative. She gives my pets exactly what they need!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
-I recently graduated with my doctorate in occupational therapy from OSU this past May -I am great at sending updates and lots of pictures -I realize how scary it can be to have a stranger in your home or with your pets. I am more than willing to meet you and your pet before booking so that you can have peace of mind and feel safe with me! -I am very respectful of your space and will make sure to keep things clean (including cleaning up after pet accidents, taking off my shoes in the house, wiping off muddy paws, etc.) -Safety is my priority, and I will always double check that doors are locked when I leave. I am used to blocking out doorways when I come/go to ensure pets don't sneak out! -I'm a proud plant mom and can water/care for your plants as well--just let me know!
Information Theresa M. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know your dog’s typical routine including food/potty break schedules, and how often or far they are typically walked. This helps me make sure your pet’s normal routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away!
A typical day
I love to give plenty of belly scratches and pets to my pups! I love going on long walks, but can do short walks or anywhere in between depending on your dogs activity level and tolerance. I'm an avid runner, so if your dog likes to run, I can do that too! I usually walk around my neighborhood in UA but love going to local parks to play fetch as well!
Services
Theresa can watch in your home
Availability
I recently started working as an occupational therapist in outpatient rehab during the day, however, I have some flexibility as I work some half days as well. I am typically free in the mornings, evenings, and weekends and can still house sit with my current schedule. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you are unsure, I can usually make most dates/times work by moving things around in my schedule!
