Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important routine and comfort are for pets, so I do my best to keep them relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and affection, and make safety my top priority during every visit. I also send regular text and photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for!

House Sitting • Aug 16, 2026

Tessa stayed at our home for a week to watch our cat and dog. She sent multiple daily updates, followed all our feeding and other instructions. We came back to a clean house and very happy pets. Extremely satisfied with service!

House Sitting • Aug 01, 2026

We had Tessa stay at our house to look after our golden retriever and cat. We’ve had her swing by the house before for drop in visits, but this was the first time she stayed. We’ve were away for about 10 days and we cannot say enough about her communication and care. We knew our boys were in good hands and our home, too. It can sometimes be a little nerve wracking to leave your home and animals in the hands of someone else, but Tessa is fantastic! She left our home spotless, watered our plants, and even did the trash. All of this on top of taking top notch care of our guys, following their care directions and giving them so much love. We will definitely be using Tessa again for housesitting. We know our animals feel the same!

Drop-In Visits • Jul 07, 2026

We have used Tessa previously and were so happy that she was available to drop in on our cat while we were away. She communicates well and sent us some great feedback about how our guy was doing, as well as pictures. We plan on using her again in the future!

Tessa dropped in to check on our dog and give him his dinner and let him out while we were at a wedding. She was attentive to details and instructions and our pup (and cat) were happy to have her visit. We already have her scheduled for a few other visits and are so happy to have found a reliable sitter for our guys!
