About Tess S.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm happy to take your dog to the local park, through the neighborhood, or we can play in your yard, etc. For cats and other critters, I'm happy to play with them and will be careful entering and departing your house to prevent escapes.
Information Tess S. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preference and I have pet sat for small and large dogs as well as puppies and senior dogs. I'll ask questions about your animal's quirks, what they do and don't like, and if they have any fears/aversions to things.
A typical day
I'm happy to take your energetic dog(s) on a run/walk around the neighborhood or for an older dog, we can go on slow walks or hang out at the park. When we do a meet and greet I'll ask about what your preferences are and will adhere to those.

The best care for your best buddy
Pet care experience
I've taken care of animals since I was in elementary school, had a golden retriever growing up, a yellow labrador (in the pics) for 10 years until he passed away, and now I have a dog and a cat at home. I also trained my Labrador to be a pet therapy dog. I would love to be able to take your dog on walks or stop by and care for your pets for drop-in visits. I have given animals' medications, including injections, and have taken care of pets with special needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I have cared for fish, frogs, birds, lizards, guinea pigs, rabbits, hedgehogs, hamsters, mice, rats, and snakes. I love all animals and am both dependable and conscientious. If you have any questions, please ask! I treat every animal uniquely. I want to know any nuances about them, so I can provide the best care possible! Please share with me their daily routine.
Cat care experience
Tess also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Tess was wonderful. We will use her again.
As always, Tess took great care of the kitties, sent fun photos, and communicated well with all the details! Highly recommend!
Tess was kind, patient and thorough with Rosie's care while I was away. Rosie works with a lot of fear and distrust of others - and Tess had a calming presence that helped Rosie feel comfortable to explore from her normal, stressed hiding spot when I'm away while Tess supported her. Strongly recommend Tess to anyone looking for a heart-centered, thorough & detailed support for their furry companions - truly peace of mind while away <3
Tess has been a great cat sitter for us for several years! Loads of great photos, and our cats are always happy to see her (including the one that doesn’t like anyone other than family).
