Pet care experience

I’m new so I took $10 off my rates!

I’ve taken care of a variety of breeds, littles to bigs, all ages, starting since I was young kiddo. Dogs are drawn to me and feel safe. I don’t know how, but I’ve never met a dog who wasn’t okay with me. I’m excited to feed, walk and play with your pets! I’ve never had any problems. I was at the birth of 3 litters of puppies and raised them until a forever home was found. I have 4 mini aussies who are full of energy and wonderment. I also love to dote on my parents’ senior pets. It’s a gift that pets naturally like me! I have a calm disposition until I learn your pet’s vibe and adapt to that. My clients will tell you that your pet is in great hands!

Tessa is such a thoughtful and caring dog sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our senior dog was well cared for while we were away on vacation. We really appreciated her thorough updates, daily photos, and how responsive she was throughout the week. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’d happily recommend Tessa!

Tessa. She has been the most caring & intuitive & fun pet mamma one could want while away from their fur babies. She is the best.
