Royal treatment for every dog!
Pet care experience
My first job was for a local dog groomer. I grew up with dogs but fell in love with them even more when I was grooming them everyday and gained hands on experience with a wide variety of breeds. I frequently dog sit for family members and friends, and would love to expand my network and watch your dog! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule that will allow me to give your dog the best possible care.
Reviews
I had the pleasure of working with Tessa in co-sitting a dog while their owner was out of town. Tessa was a dream partner; she was personable, reliable, responsive, and handled any unpredictable situations with ease. She was the main point of contact with the owner and communicated with them regularly. Her past history of dog grooming further raises the caliber of her care, given the variety of breeds and temperaments she was exposed to. I would trust Tessa to look after my sweet pets, and would recommend her to my closest friends and family!

Safety, trust & environment
When taking care of pets, the pet is my top priority. I work my schedule around them to make them as comfortable as possible while their owners are gone! I have experience watching high separation anxiety dogs and I always try to make time away from their owners as enjoyable as possible. I will happily follow any instructions or preferences you have for regularity and length of walks.
Information Tessa H. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know how your dog interacts with other pets, people, and animals. I need to be aware of what to do when walking past another dog on a walk or similar experience, so I can be prepared if they are reactive. Additionally, any allergies or health conditions are always important to be aware of!
A typical day
I love to provide frequent exercise to dogs and grew up with very high energy dogs that needed lots of stimulation and walks! Allowing dogs to take their time sniffing on walks, playing games if they enjoy it, and just enjoying time outside are all important aspects of daily dog life to me.
