Dog Walking & Pet-Sitting by Tera

Introduction: I specialize in dog walks/hikes and pet sitting for animals. Please read below to see more information. References can be provided. People trust me with their animals because I am reliable and communicative with the owners, while being fully committed to their pets. Ask me about my rates and travel charges for extensive mileage. I travel up to 20 miles round trip at no additional charge. How would you know the work has been done? I will either leave a note to check in after each visit or a simple text message, whichever is easier. In some cases, my clients have housekeepers, so they are great cross-checks for visits completed. I also make sure to replenish food if you request it and always leave the pet(s) with fresh water. You let me know what you like to do to help make them feel at home, and I'll imitate those actions so that they don't feel "off" and get nervous while you are away from home. For example, one client simply tells me to leave Animal Planet on, and if they know they'll be getting home late that day, they will tell me to keep a light on, too. I can administer medicine (i.e., pills) if your pet is on a schedule, at any time. Extended visiting, overnight stays, and additional information: Extended visiting and overnight stays are available for the following pets: dogs, cats, lizards in cages, amphibians, fish, rodents (especially hamsters), and plants. No arachnids or snakes will be serviced, please! At least a 24-hour notice is appreciated, though I am always on-call/flexible for the owners. I understand that things just come up sometimes. Ask me for my rates! I am not a pet groomer nor a trainer, but I learn quickly and will follow your pet training guidelines to keep them on target. I am loving and energetic, and I will give the ultimate love, care, and attention to your little friend(s), especially when you have to go away for a while -- guaranteed! Service is available 5 days a week, beginning at 9 a.m. until just before dark falls, depending on daylight saving time. I am available on weekends when needed. Whether you're Jewish, a busy executive, industry type or LGBTQ, you're more than fine with me!
