Pet care experience

I provide a boutique experience for my guests🐾 My place is small and the yard is 48 X 48’, the dogs have plenty of room to play and have fun, keeping it small helps me monitor what’s going on all the time, I only host a few guest pups at a time🐾🐾🐾 so everyone gets the care and attention they need 🧡 My guests are simply incorporated right into our own little pack and given the same privileges, love, and attention as my own canine kids! The guest pups are never left alone, if I have an errand or an appointment I either bring in another Dog Sitter or my 13 year-old grandson hangs out with the pups, he is a very loving and compassionate young man! He is homeschooled and loves loves the guest pups that join us! Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen. I truly enjoy listening to dogs, and have made a life long hobby of reading about our amazing canine companions! Being a dog lover I have a few questions about your fur baby. Does your canine kid love ball/stick fetching? Belly rubs? Quiet time? Being brushed? Ear scratches? Cuddles? I am your go to dog lover! I have been a successful Dog Boarder, Pet Sitter and Farm care provider for the last 9 years! I’m so excited to be offering dog boarding and day canine camp!! I also provide plenty of real time photo updates throughout your pups stay! I have a dog friendly Jeep Wrangler and am delighted to provide pick up and drop off!! HAPPY TAILS!!

The dogs had a great time here. They came home exhausted due to all the fun.

Tess is the absolute best with our dog. He gets constant attention and lots of ‘outings’ daily. She is his home away from home. Thanks for all you do!

Tess was great, we will definitely use her again! Our dogs were immediately comfortable with her and she sent us lots of pictures.

Tess is a wonderful sitter, as usual. She has a great play area that is fenced in for the dogs. We can tell she spends plenty of time actively playing with the dogs because she sends lots of photos and updates throughout the boarding! We always feel good about leaving our dogs with Tess because we know they'll be at a fun, safe and active home.

Information Tess J. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your dogs basic commands,‘any special needs, if they are allowed treats, if they have any food aggression, toy aggression, if your pup is comfortable with other dogs, and any little thing that you want to write down and leave with me is always welcome!!

A typical day

Well the most important thing to a dog is another dog! But I will provide playtime, constant supervision, time away from the other pups when needed, and whatever my observation tells me your dog needs. Plus plenty of photo updates throughout their stay!

I am a full-time caregiver for canine kids!! The guest pups will enjoy a smaller securely fenced in area on 6 acres, my daughter, son-in-law and their two kids just finished building their home, and now it’s my turn, I’ve converted a shed into a adorable tiny home! The guest pups are welcome to be inside or outside as they choose and at night they are inside with me 🛌😴
