Pet care experience

Friendly, Caring, Responsible

Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats, I developed a deep love for animals early on. I’ve had the joy of raising a Bullmastiff and a Pomeranian from puppies to their senior years. Currently, I care for Beau, my rescue mix who has quickly become the heart of our home. I am comfortable with puppies, teen dogs and aging dogs. I have completed several dog training courses, am comfortable with off-leash recall, basic agility, and providing medical care for aging pet.

Tessa could not have been more attentive and caring for Freya. We really appreciated her visits today.

Tessa was so great when we left her to care for our cat. Even though her time got cut short because of some hiccups on my part, I felt so comfortable and confident that Kitchi was in good hands. Thank you so much!!

I can't recommend Tessa highly enough as a dog walker and pet sitter. She's been a lifelong dog and cat lover, and it really shows in the way she cares for animals. Tessa is not only confident and experienced with pets, but she's also incredibly trustworthy. I always feel at ease knowing my furry family members are in her capable hands. Whether it's a walk or an overnight stay, Tessa goes above and beyond to ensure my pets are happy, safe, and well-cared-for. She's simply the best!

I have known Tessa my whole life. We both have been animals lovers especially dogs. She has owned small dogs to large breeds and is able to care for them with love, compassion, obedience and the utmost knowledge. There are few people I trust with my high energy mixed breed rescue dog and she’d be #1 if I needed someone to watch him. Tessa is also very active and loves taking dogs for walks especially nature trail hikes and her passion is volleyball. Aside from working full time and having a family of her own which includes a toddler and a rescue dog that she’s put the most time and energy into training. Beau her dog has turned into the most wonderful family dog and loves other dogs!
