Safety, trust & environment

I make sure nothing is left out for the dogs to get into. I follow personalized instructions to respect the owners training. We go for walks that are suited to each dog.

Information Tess L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know feeding schedule and preferred washroom breaks. I like to make dogs feel safe and welcomed when they come so I allow lots of love and snuggles. Even at bed time… so please let me know if you would prefer them not to.

A typical day

I have so many toys that I’ve purchased over the years of doing rover. I like to go to dog parks when they’re empty to toss the ball around for them to run. Long river walls are nice for us both!

Love dogs, love walking!

Pet care experience

I’m currently experiencing puppy fever, but I’m not entirely sure if I should commit fully to a pooch at this point as I am in a apartment. But for short visits and long walks would be amazing at this time. Looking forward to getting to meet your little one! I grew up with a beautiful golden retriever who loved the outdoors and swimming. I miss her sooo much. I’m thinking about getting a smaller dog! So here I am, willing to care for your precious pup. Looking for companions to keep me busy and someone to take on long walks.

Tess was fantastic with our two pups! Her communication was very prompt. Mackie and Remi had a wonderful day with Tess and we would use her again to watch our little fur babes. Thank you!

Tess was very flexible with us and we were so lucky to have her watch our fur baby. I would recommend her to others.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
