Flexible and Patient Sitter
Pet care experience
Not only have I always been around animals at home, I have professional experience in house and pet sitting with cats, chickens, dogs, goats, hamsters, rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, horses and fish! My schedule is pretty flexible, I've worked with animals of all dispositions - from low key to hyper - and I love getting to know every one of them and their little nuances. I used to volunteer at a shelter in my home state of California where I socialized both the dogs and cats, exercised the dogs in their large run, and helped to groom them. Dog breeds I've worked for: Poodle Dachshund Maltese/Poodle Lab Chihuahua Beagle Shih Tzu/Poodle American Bulldog Yorkie Sheltie Australian Shepherd Cairn Terrier Great Dane English Mastiff Papillon Australian cattle dog Wheaten terrier And I'm always looking forward to expanding that list.
Reviews
Theresa is the best animal sitter! She not only does what is asked, but also goes above and beyond to make sure the pets are loved and happy, while we are gone. If you need an animal sitter, this is the person for you.
Theresa was very responsive and very friendly. She accommodated a last-minute request and was flexible with our schedule. She aplayed with my dog and made sure he was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Theresa as a dog sitter for anyone.
Theresa was great! She sent pictures and took great care of my cats. Would definitely trust her to care for them in the future.
The dogs were well cared for and the house was kept neat and tidy. I would recommend this sitter.
About Theresa R.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Right now I am not set up to take pets in my home, but am willing to spend the nights in a client's home (and have for up to 5 weeks to date)
Information Theresa R. would like to know about your pet
Basically if there's anything I should know to bring with or not bring with me, like are they scared and a certain clothing or something sets them off, or do they have a certain favourite kind or toy or treat I should bring to make friends.
A typical day
I enjoy going around the block or exploring dirt paths and forests. I used to run all the time with dogs at the shelter, and I play tug of war with stuffed animals with my own pupper. Sometimes we just snuggle up and that's great, too.
Services
Theresa can watch in your home
Availability
July and August have been unexpectedly busy, but client's plans are always changing, so ask and I may be able to accommodate. Requesting mid day visits (approximately noon to 3pm) is always a good idea, as these are my least busy times.
