Introduction

I've always loved animals. I've had a cat in my life since I was 3. My best friend calls me The Cat Whisperer. My husband (& cat) won't let me get more cats, so I decided to start pet sitting after helping my friend with some of her sittings & dog walking when she was injured. I love spoiling your fur babies while you are out of town. I'm also able to give medications. I have also owned a dog, birds, chickens, fish, rabbits, turtles & hamsters. I even have some experience with horses. I've bird sat small & large birds as well. My visits include feeding, changing the water, cleaning out litter or picking up poo on walks, playing, talking, chin scratches (lots of them!) & petting, cuddling & kisses. I can also administer meds, if needed. If you have house plants, I can water them & also collect your mail & papers, if needed. I'll send you text messages to let you know how your fur baby is doing along with a few pictures every day.

I've hired Teresa twice, and will definitely hire her again. She does a great job with our cats, Freckles and Sunny. She brings toys and tries to keep them engaged while she's visiting, and she's good about sending updates with photos. From the first meet-and-greet, it was obvious that Teresa has a genuine passion for animals — which makes her an excellent pet sitter!

It's a comfort to know that our cats are in good hands with Teresa when we are away. She took the time to find all three of our kitties and send us photos every day, even our extremely shy girl who is good at hiding. Our not-so-shy guy clearly enjoyed playing with the new toys she brought. We would definitely call on Teresa again to care for our pets.

Details: Cat • 3 pets • Changing litter or bedding • Providing companionship • Dispensing medication • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

Teresa has a very friendly personality and my shy cat warmed up to her right away. Definitely have a way of communicating outside of thumbtack, though- she was very responsive when texting but thumbtack messaging seemed to hold up any messages with photos attached. She sent very good pictures, once I was able to get them!

We hired Teresa to pet sit our 2 dogs while we had a wedding to go to. All I needed was someone to come and let the dogs out and then feed them and make sure they went potty before she left. Teresa went above and beyond all that. She brought in my mail, fed everyone, and took pictures of my fur babies. She even took the time to pet one of my cats who decided to see what was going on. Will definitely hire again for my future pet sitting needs.

Details: Dog • 2 pets • Giving food and water • Taking pet outside • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Once in total • My home, venue, etc.

Theresa was amazing! She stayed at my House for nine nights and my dog Lando, which is a silver lab and very hyper, was perfectly happy. I came home and he was content and you could tell he was well taken care of. Theresa sent me daily updates which showed me she really knew my pub G
