Pet care experience

Looking for paw-some clients!

I have a rescue bun of my own at home, and I would ensure that any of your pets, no matter the species, would be cared for just as well as I would my own. I do work in person which takes me out of the house for 7-8 hours at a time. Beyond that, my time is completely dedicated to the care of your animal!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I read the needs of the individual pet. If they want attention and doting, I'm there! If they prefer a quiet company and personal space, I can accommodate that as well. Anything to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy!

Tessa did an amazing job watching our wild pup, Baker for five days! She was very attentive, walked him every day, took care of a hot spot that he had, and gave us updates every day! She left our house super clean as well. We would definitely work with her again!

It's been an extremely smooth and easy process working with Tessa over the holiday weekend! Tessa was very communicative, patient and took great care of Beanie and Alfie. She also went above and beyond to get me updates for some new behaviors during the last walk with Beanie along with some stubborn behaviors resulting in a sloght change of plans for end of evening activities. Really appreciate your flexibility, communication and help over the weekend! Will plan to book care for Alfie and Beanie with Tessa again, thank you!!

Tessa was a fantastic sitter - caring and very communicative. She provided a lot of extra treats and outings to our pets. One of the best sitters we have had!

Tessa took super great care of our two dogs while we were away for a few days. She was attentive to their specific needs and gave us any relevant updates (and some great pictures) along the way. They seemed very content and well cared for when we got home :)
