Critter Sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi! I have been working with dogs and cats most of my life, small animals for the last nine years, whether watching an animal (or 10) for a friend while they traveled, or caring for my own household pets (11 is the highest number I have cared for in one go). I have experience with dogs, cats, lizards, fish, birds, and rodents. At this time I do not offer boarding due to my pup not being friendly to others and lack of a place for small animals. I will typically walk dogs every 2-6 hours depending on age and size, and can manage about a mile walk every time. Thank you for considering me as a potential sitter! Tess P.S. All but the gecko & pup in the rubber ducky robe are animals I no longer care for in my photos and I am working to upload more!

My nervous Lily was eager to meet and follow TESSA. I was happy to receive a couple photos & Kind words about Lily bc she gets afraid in the storm. Thanks Tessa!

Tess has always been great with my big dog, who as it turns out is picky about who she likes in the first place. Before we lost our 15 year old last year, she was great with him too. Tess is very patient with animals be they furry or scaly. Your friends are going to be well cared for her in hands.
