Responsible Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats in my life for 13 years and am excited to meet yours. I have experience with excitable labs, standoffish German shepherds, small breeds, and have even took care of newborn pups.

Tess was absolutely amazing and helped fill in for us in a tight spot when our previous sitter cancelled on us halfway through our vacation. All of our pets were happy and well taken care of. Highly recommended!

Tess is wonderful! She is very warm and kind and both Cleo and I liked her as soon as we met her. She sent pictures every day and left our house spotless. We highly recommend Tess and will definitely use her again!

Tess took wonderful care of our 4-year-old Havanese in our home for two days. Having Tess taking care of Murphy allowed us to relax during our time away. She consistently communicated by sending updates with pictures.

Safety, trust & environment

During my visits, I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I would treat your pet with the same care as my own, giving as much love and attention as they'd like (but maybe not as many treats as they'd want!).

Information Tess F. would like to know about your pet

I'll make sure to ask during our meet and greet so you don't need to tell me this when first reaching out. But, I'd like to know the dog's general routine, personality traits (barks a lot, jumpy, etc.), and any rules and restrictions. If I have any questions, I will definitely contact you.

A typical day

Ultimately, I'd try to keep your pet's activities as similar to how they'd be with you. I feel this sense of familiarity is important to them because I am a new person to them and their owner is not there. If I plan on doing something outside the norm, I'd consult you. Some past activities I've done with high energy dogs are long walks, playing with toys, or visiting dog parks.
