Introduction
I have provided high quality pet services for a number of years now. I work well with owners of the dogs/cats/birds/fish meeting their needs. Whether it be dog sitting, or cat sitting, providing companionship & vet appointments when needed and maintaining Heath issues as needed. I pet sit which is always a great experience. Getting to know each dog, cat, bird and their individual personalities gives me great pleasure. I also walk dogs and the dog walks I have at this time each one shows their excitement in their own personal way. however i am not taking on any more steady dog walks at this time. I do chuckle. I presently work for a no-kill cat shelter. I clean, scoop, medicate when necessary and give a report everyday to the executive director. I have been involved with animals for some time now and involved with a non profit no kill cat shelter for approx 14 years. It's very enjoyable and fulfilling. I took care of the dogs boarded at VCA animal hospital and also in treatment area. Unfortunately they are only open 6 days a week now which deleted my position there. I take pride in taking care of any health issues that arise by notifying the someone from the medical team also by medicating the animals as well. I take great pride in caring for animals and also being an advocate for animals. I take great pride in making the animals comfortable and loved. I will take snapshots of the pets and check in daily with the owners so they are totally in the loop while they are away. I am one person who has knowledge thru my experience, learned knowledge and involvement with cats and dogs and their behaviors and quite capable of seeing any emergency type situation that may arise while in my care. Because it's always about the animals well being and what's best for the animals i am absolutely a great caretaker for animals and because they need someone who can speak for them. They are all such innocent beings and deserve the best always and this is why i will do a great job for you. At this critical crazy time i am still available and am taking all precautionary measures to stay safe.

Teresa was a real find! She took care of our cat and our bearded dragon while we gone for a week and did a wonderful job. She even watered our plants and took care of other odds and ends while we were away. She even tended to the dubia roaches that we use to feed the dragon. I would highly recommend Teresa, and next time we go out of town she will be our first choice in pet sitting.

Details: Reptile • 2 pets • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

Teresa is a very capable pet care person for all kinds of pets. Dogs, cats, tortoises etc... we hired Teresa and gave her instructions about our routine with our pets and she did them excellent. I have already asked her for our next outing and will use her again. We really like her experience and her responsivness. We get daily pics and a summary of the day.
