Flexible and responsible pet lover

Pet care experience

I've been a dog mom for 8 years. I have two pit bulls and recently lost our third pack member, an independent and full of personality maltipoo. My pitbulls have some reactivity challenges on leash and one has anxiety around strangers so I am comfortable with calmly handling and avoiding situations that can become intense and stressful when out. I will not have my dogs when I am dog sitting at my home. My former partner and I share custody and I am dog sitting when I do not have them because I miss the furry cuddles.

Tessa was great! Our boy seemed to have a blast with her and I loved the daily photos and updates on what they were doing! Definitely would recommend!

Tessa could not be a more perfect person to befriend and watch your pets. An attentive and responsible dog lover and advocate, a down to earth person, a fenced backyard and no other dogs in the home are just a few of the many aspects that immediately come to mind. I could go on and on. We are so glad we ran into Tessa and would recommend her without a second thought.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with lots of room to sniff and play. I live in a nice community down the street from a cute park with trails for walks. I can check in on animals in their own home as well and explore their space. I'm hyper vigilant of my surroundings always, and avoid unnecessary run ins with unknown pups out and about.

Information Tessa G. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me about any unique behaviors at home or outside of the house that I should be vigilant about, and their favorite games and treats.

A typical day

I think it's just as important to provide mental stimulation to animals as physical activity. Walks with lots of sniffing can be both, and I have many puzzles, sniff mats, lick mats, kongs, and other games to keep everyone sharp.

I work from home as an animal advocacy program director. Creating a better world for all animals is my life's mission I shape my own schedule and love to fill it with lots of walk and play breaks with furry friends.
