About Terry

Dedicated, full-time pet sitter

Hello! I grew up in Charleston, SC, in a home that always had at least two fur babies. My family and I have a deep love for pets and truly believe they are one of the most cherished members of the family.

I'm home full time with only a few errands to run during the week, so I'm able to provide lots of attention and care. In December 2025 we said goodbye to our beloved Samoyed after many wonderful years together. We carry that love into caring for every pet who stays with us.

Our two Boxers, Tina and Phoebe, help welcome guests. Robin, our cat of 11 years, has always been around dogs and is very comfortable with them, though she prefers to spend most of her day upstairs.

I provide attentive, structured, and loving care tailored to each pet. Pets in my home are treated like part of the family in a calm, supervised environment, and I follow their established routines as closely as possible to keep stress low.

What should I bring?

What pets can you host?

Dogs from small up to 100 lbs, plus cats. Dogs must be crate-trained, and females in heat can't be hosted. There's a limit of 10 dogs per day.

Can you give medication?

Yes. Terry has experience with both oral and injected medications. Please include dosing instructions with your request.

How will I get updates?

You'll get one photo update per day, usually around 2 to 3 PM, and more are happy to be sent on request.

Is a deposit required?

Yes. A deposit of 25% of the stay holds your dates. It's arranged directly with Terry when your stay is confirmed.
