Highlights
Pet care experience
Wanna go for a walk?
I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds - dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, hamsters, ferrets, guinea pigs, horses - you name it! I'm so grateful that I've been able to make caring for pets a part of my daily life.
Cat care experience
Tess also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I have a deep understanding of pet behavior thanks to my experiences as a pet parent, foster mom, doggie daycare alum, and shelter volunteer. You won't find anyone more tolerant of sharp claws, slobber, and hair balls. I have experience administering oral and topical medication, caring for senior pets, and accommodating for special needs like allergies, colitis, hip dysplasia, seizures, stitches/post-surgery care, hematomas, heat, mega-esophagus, heart conditions, belly bands, and so on. I’m comfortable with pets of all breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities.
Ratings and reviews
Tess is absolutely fantastic. From her professionalism to attention and care, to her generosity and flexibility, not to mention reliability, it has been wonderful to work with her regularly. I just started working away from home again and it has been so comforting to know Norma is in great care with Tess. Could not recommend her more!
Tess is always an incredibly reliable and thoughtful sitter. She takes great pictures of Nora and is highly communicative. I know my cat is in great hands when I travel thanks to Tess.
Tess was so accommodating and took the time to hear our senior dogs whole history! She administered pills to him in the morning and at night and we felt like the dogs were in great hands. She’s very experienced and she was on time and took adorable pictures of our boys! ❤️ 10/10 recommend!
Tess always takes such good care of our 12 year old Norma and communicates so well. We always feel comfortable and know Tess and Norma are not enjoying their time together 😊
Tess is the best! Always punctual and treats our pup with the loving care that makes us feel comfortable leaving. Highly recommended!
Tess is the absolute best! She has been helping me out with my pup for weeks. She is very reliable, great with communication and my dog loves her. I can’t recommend her enough!

Schedule
I currently work as a freelance producer - so when I'm not on set, I'm out walking dogs and dropping in on your pets just about every day of the week! The freedom of being self employed also allows me to have maximum flexibility for last minute requests if you find yourself in a bind.
