Safety, trust & environment

In every home I have cared for, I take care to learn the routines the animals are used to! Ill stick to what they know, and send you updates and picture so you know your pet is safe.

Information Tess G. would like to know about your pet

Im willing to work with elderly pets or young puppies or kittens. I will make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding your pets care. I have given oral medication to dogs before and cared for pets with special diets, even dogs who wear a diaper! I am used to shy dogs that need time to warm up to you, or dogs that bark at first but show their sweet side later.

A typical day

Always love to go for walks and the park so we can enjoy fresh air and all the scents. Stimulating activities like hiding treats for them to look for. I am willing to adapt to whichever activities you prefer!

Tess was wonderful with our dog, Timber. She provided us with updates (which we loved!) and was very responsive. Tess was home & dog sitting, and we trust her completely to do it again! She met with us before hand to get a lay of the land and was here about 1 week.

Tess was wonderful with our elderly dog!

Tess has been home & dog sitting for me for 2 years now & I am so grateful our paths crossed. We have an 8-year-old husky shepherd mix Nala who LOVES Tess. Nala hated boarding! Knowing our Nala is home & so well taken care of is such a huge relief when I'm traveling. Whether it's one night or extended weeks, Tess is responsible, reliable & respectful. She makes sure the house is cleaned up, dishes put away & even shovels when mother nature takes a turn for the worse. Tess makes sure Nala gets walks, play time & lots of love & snuggle time. Tess sends updates & photos so we don't miss our Nala when we are away. Tess is timely in responding to messages & has been there for me when I've needed some things coordinated at the house. She is trustworthy & very highly recommended! Tess will love your pet & take care of your home like it's her own.
