I'll be your dog’s new best friend!

Pet care experience

I'm a recent BU grad living in Brookline and for work, I handle all marketing/social media for a local restaurant group. When I'm not at work, I'm taking care of your dogs! I'm lucky to have an incredibly flexible work schedule and the ability to work remotely. I have very open availability. I've had dogs of all sizes and have always helped take care of them. I most recently had a small chihuahua/terrier mix named Bella at my parents’ house in VT, and I grew up with a German shepherd/yellow lab and sheltie. I have a lot of experience with cats too! I'm an active person who loves being outdoors, especially with a canine companion. Anyone who knows me knows how much I truly love dogs, and being paid to spend time with dogs is a win-win for me.

Tess! Can’t say enough good things about her. Always timely with the pics, great with the communication, and Baxter clearly loved her. My only worry is that my dog will leave me because he likes staying with her more! 12/10 would recommend

Tess watched our small dog and cat for 10 days while we were traveling. She administered medications twice daily for our dog. While we were gone our dog decided to stop taking one of his medications. Tess was very communicative about the problem and was very patient with our dog. We really appreciated her updates and would definitely recommend her!

Tess is lovely! She’s very responsible and easy to work with. Love the pictures she send as of the cats. This was the second time we’ve used her and will keep doing so!

If you're looking for dog boarding and your pup barks a lot, he/she might not be the best fit - I live in an apartment complex and try to be mindful of my neighbors!

A typical day

I live right by the Chestnut Hill Reservoir, a perfect place to take pups for a walk!
