Safety, trust & environment

With dog walking I will take all precautions necessary. Whilst I am walking my own dogs I always carry pet correcter and pepper spray in case of an unforseen circumstance. I will carry this energy with me while you trust me with your dog. I will do everything I can to prevent any accidents. Same goes with the drop ins whether it be with a cat or dog I will be just as dedicated.

Information Tessa G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know their daily routine. I would like to know walking preferences, if they are people/other animal friendly. If there are any specific needs like treating during the walk etc. Also if they need to be muzzled or any special requests.

A typical day

I would adapt my plans specific to each pet and their needs. I would take follow in the owners footsteps to the best of my abilities while adding in some fun!

Tessa was great. We just did a big move so Jinxy was a little sassy. But Tessa was super patient with her💕🧚‍♀️🦚.

Tessa took excellent care of my two cats when I was out of town for a week. She gave daily updates and included pictures and responded right away if I had a question. I will definitely hire her again. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Tessa from me and Gracie and Lucas.
