Safety, trust & environment

I take trust very seriously. As someone who used to run a cleaning business I know how important it is to trust who you’re working with.

Information Tess M. would like to know about your pet

How is your dog with other dogs? Does your dog have any special needs like food allergies or daily medication? What can I do to make your pet comfortable.

A typical day

I love spending time outside and we are in a gray place for it. I will take your dogs in the neighborhood, on the river trail, out to Colorado lakes. Lots and snuggles and cuddling.

Pets

I am a serious animal lover!

Pet care experience

I am a working professional that will be doing this for some fun and extra income. This will be my first time doing pet care for people I do not know. In the past I have helped friends and neighbors when they were leaving town by watching their animals. In the past I ran my own cleaning business and often did minimal animal care while cleaning homes. I have a dog myself (Indie) and can understand the stress that comes with hiring a pet sitter or kenneling your pet. I hope I can help to provide a stress free option for pet care. You can be confident your animal will be getting the best possible care while you are away. I am offering walks in your neighborhood or longer hikes in the area accompanied by my dog, drop-in visits, and overnight sitting at your home. I wish I could offer boarding at my house but my landlord will not allow other dogs in my home. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about me please don't hesitate to contact me!

Tess was absolutely wonderful! She came in a checked on our kitty while we were out of town, and she just loved her! Highly recommend and would love to work together again in the future. :)
