About Tessa J.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a spacious home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise. I also have an 8-month-old service dog in training who is extremely friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys being around other dogs. With over 9 years of experience training service dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing attentive care. I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and make sure each dog feels comfortable in their environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication administration, and any special requests. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners while providing regular updates and communication throughout their stay.

Information Tessa J. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best possible care, I like to learn about each pet's personality, routine, and specific needs before their stay. Please let me know about your pet's feeding schedule, exercise requirements, any medications, allergies, medical conditions, or behavioral concerns. It's also helpful to know how your pet interacts with other dogs, people, and new environments. I have experience training service dogs and administering medications, so I am comfortable working with pets that require extra attention or specialized care. My goal is to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. The more I know about your pet beforehand, the better I can make their stay enjoyable, stress-free, and tailored to their individual needs.

A typical day

I love staying active and making sure every pet has a fun, engaging, and comfortable experience. A typical day includes plenty of walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and enrichment activities tailored to each dog's energy level and personality. Whether your dog loves playing fetch, going on adventures, learning new tricks, or simply relaxing and getting lots of attention, I'm happy to accommodate their needs. I enjoy spending quality time with pets and keeping them active both mentally and physically. For high-energy dogs, I can provide extra exercise, outdoor play, and training reinforcement. For senior dogs or more relaxed pets, I'm happy to provide a calm environment with gentle walks, companionship, and plenty of affection. Throughout the day, your pet will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and care. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home while you're away.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have over 9 years of experience training service dogs of all ages. Through my training experience, I have worked with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, helping them build confidence, learn new skills, and receive the care they need. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with a wide variety of dogs and my ability to adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs. I have also cared for my own foster dog, which taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of creating a safe and loving environment for every animal. I am comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and happy while you're away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, exercise, medication, or simply lots of love and companionship, I am committed to providing the highest quality care. I pride myself on being warm, friendly, dependable, and attentive. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like family and receive plenty of affection, enrichment, and personalized care. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and stress-free. 🐾
