Pet care experience

Pet sitter with a garden

I love dogs and had an energetic patterdale terrier for 14 years. I have looked after many different breeds, including labradors, greyhounds, dachshunds, spaniels and terriers to name a few. I also love to walk and have a large garden so your dog will get plenty of exercise.

I cannot recommend Tess enough - she is wonderful with Olive and also has gone above and beyond for me today to be flexible and have Olive for a longer period of time than anticipated due to changes in circumstance. She has kept me updated on Olive and she seems so happy in her care. I would recommend Tess to anyone who’s looking to ensure their pup is well looked after and cared for!

Tess was really friendly and helpful, looking after our dog, Tiggy, on short notice.

Olive (my mini dachshund) got on super well with tess both in our pre meet and during their walk - Tess was very accommodating meeting Olive at short notice to support me with walking her the next day. She was very considerate to asking what Olive needs and the feedback from their walk shows that Olive was very well looked after. We will continue to work with Tess on a more loyal basis and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others looking for trusted support for their pups!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house with a large grassy secure garden, so your dog can safely enjoy time outside without any risk of escaping. The house also has plenty of space.

A typical day

We play with a toy in the garden or house. We go on plenty of walks as I love to walk. We also chill or have strokes in the garden / house depending on the weather.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours to account for. I had a patterdale in the past who had lots of needs and know that every dog has their own individual personality.
