Pet care experience
I've dog sat in various capacities over the years, some charges were more regular, and some charges were just for a single weekend. I've worked with puppies, senior dogs, and have experience applying drops, administering oral medication, and keeping a high energy breed (Australian Blue Heeler) passive as he recovered from surgery so as to not open his stitches. I've worked with a special needs pit bull (missing a leg and developmentally disabled with aggression towards other dogs) and am up for any dog sitting experience as long as I have all the necessary information to make your dog happy while you're away. I'm freelance marketer specializing in tech startups, so I work from home 80% of the time. Additionally, I'm currently in the process of designing an augmented reality video game (it's about interdimensional cats!) that should be ready for release by summer 2017, which is super cool but also leaves me a with a lot of down time at home between skype meetings with my developer and calls with my publisher. Dogs really help fill the void between staring at computer screens all day. I currently own a 3 year old jack russell/schipperke mix that is friendly and highly socialized. He's great with other dogs, especially those with separation anxiety. He's welcome to socialize with your dogs but if you're in need of a more private space for your pup, my dog has a home away from home he is always welcome to spend the night at.
Reviews
My dogs loved walking with Theresa and came back super tired!!
Theresa was an amazing sitter! Our dog has high energy so she matched really well with Theresa's dog, Tom Ford. The two of them played so well together. Theresa also has a great front yard for the dogs to play in and she was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. We will definitely have Winnie visit again! Thank you!
I had to leave town last minute and I got lucky Theresa was available. She was amazing with Neo!!! And her puppy Tom too, they get along really well. She has a nice patio, so my dog was able to run and play with Tom. She was super sweet and I can tell she knows what's she's doing.
Theresa is my former roommate and good friend! While living together, anytime I went away for days or weeks at a time, I could rest assured that my dog, Sadie, was in good hands with her. Even when I had to work long days, Theresa would take it upon herself to make sure that Sadie was taken out and fed! When Sadie and I moved out, Theresa missed living with a dog so much she went and rescued one herself and has since proven to be a very responsible and loving dog-mother!

Information Theresa E. would like to know about your pet
I generally want to know the social level of the dog as well as the activity/energy level of the dog so I can best discern if any behavior the dog displays is abnormal.
A typical day
I live about a 20 minute walk from a dog park with a separate gated area for smaller dogs. Additionally, I have a large secured front yard (about 25 yards/75 feet long) with grass, trees, and shade. The fence enclosing the area is approximately wrought iron and about 4.5 feet tall. For less social dogs, I live a short 10 minute walk to a regular park where dogs are allowed as long as they're on leashes.
