Responsible Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I grew up loving dogs and animals and several years ago started fostering dogs for local rescue groups. I have had many foster dogs over the years and currently have a shih poo rescue. She is a Certified Therapy Dog who loves walks and lounging. I also have a 2 year old poodle mix who is playful and sweet. He is high energy and loves to play. I am well versed in shy and fearful dogs, special diets, and various medical needs. I take great pride in caring for a dog as if he or she is my own and understand how important a trusted person to take care of your pup is. Your dog will be well cared for and treated like a member of the family. I have a lot of flexibility on times for services, drop offs and pick ups.
Reviews
Tessa watched Byron for 4 nights while Ryan and I were in Denver for a long weekend getaway and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Tessa is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and was incredibly patient and kind during our meet and greet. Byron seemed immediately at ease in her presence and her home was well equipped (fully fenced in yard, friendly neighbor dogs, etc.). Tessa handled Byron's leash reactivity with ease and perfectly followed his typical care instructions. We received daily updates and adorable pictures of Byron on walks, lounging about or hanging out with her doggie, Gertie. Byron came home happy, exhausted and spoiled. We will not hesitate to use Tessa again (cough, all the time) and would recommend her to anyone else. Thank you so much Tessa!!
Awesome❣️
Tessa did a great Job with our Dog for a full week. We received updates and it was clear that Daphne was well cared for. She was flexible with pickup and drop off too, which was a huge help.
Tessa was an awesome walker for my dog. She was very accommodating and responded quickly.

Is the dog potty trained and crate trained or able to be left out? Do they do well with other dogs? Are they good with small dogs?

The pups will go for walks around Hopkins and surrounding areas. We can visit local dog parks if they are comfortable with that or stick around home and play engaging activities to exercise their body and mind.
