45 years of experience
Oral medication administration

Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

At the client's home, I provide for the physical and emotional needs of the pets- food, water, any medications, cages and litter cleaning and play/exercise, basic grooming. Owners provide sensory toys, games and treats so I can engage their pets and provide a stimulating environment.

Information Tesa W. would like to know about your pet

Any particular behaviours that could be misinterpreted. Special toys, diet, games they love, how they like to receive affection etc... Any tips regarding emotional and physical health and wellness.

A typical day

I love to toss toys and balls and especially hit the woods for some serious exercize. Tug of war and hide andd seek are always fun too and of course some snuggle time for the snuggly types! For kitties, there's nothing like getting down to their level and playing with feather toys and strings and springs, or playing "Attack the monster" under the blankets...

Pets

Passionate for pets

Pet care experience

Having senior pets takes an incredible amount of compassion and patience. I have personally had several pets live beyond their years due to a lot of love and attention to behaviours that communicate their needs (meds, food, grooming, love, attention, exercise, play, rest)

Highly recommend Tesa! We have two high maintenance dogs (one very high energy and one reactive with other dogs) and Tesa handled them both wonderfully. House was clean, dogs were happy. Will book again.

Tesa did an amazing job looking after my fur babies! We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos! Our house was very clean. The pups seemed very relaxed and happy especially after all the walks Tesa took them for. Absolutely zero problems and no stress whatsoever ❤️ we definitely recommend Tesa, she is extremely reliable and very conscientious.

I’ve known Tesa for many years and she is the first person I call to take care of my dogs! She’s reliable and goes above and beyond to take care of them. They are always walked and always played with as if they were her own. Tesa has the kindest soul and a gentle demeanour that puts us all at ease whenever we’re away from home. She’s the best!

I’ll keep this brief and try to make your decision easy. I’ve known Tesa for over twenty years. Tessa is a truly loving and caring person. As a former teacher, she was entrusted with the safety and care of many, many children, and conducted herself professionally and compassionately in every regard. I have also witnessed her to be a passionate and conscientious carer for animals. I fully endorse her candidacy for this position. Please do not hesitate to contact me for a more fulsome personal reference.
