Availability
Pet care is naturally part of my daily life. I’m always walking, playing, or snuggling with my own dogs. I work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to help with walks, drop-ins, or boarding. Similarly, I only take online classes so I have a free time to care for your pups. Weekdays after work and weekends are wide open, making it easy to give your pets the love and attention they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In your home, I follow your routine exactly - from feeding schedules to walk times - to keep your pet happy and stress-free. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a calm, loving environment with plenty of space to relax and play.
Information tessa j. would like to know about your pet
I like to know a pet’s daily routine, energy level, and any quirks that make them unique. It’s helpful to hear about medical needs, medications, feeding schedule, and how they do on walks (pulling, reactivity, etc.). I also like to know if they’re nervous with strangers, other animals, or certain environments, so I can make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
A typical day
A typical day starts with a morning walk to get energy out, followed by playtime and enrichment activities to keep pets engaged. I make sure they get fresh water, meals on schedule, and plenty of attention. Throughout the day I add short potty breaks, play sessions, and calm downtime so they feel balanced and cared for.

Trusted Pet Care by Tessa
Pet care experience
I’ve spent 10+ years caring for dogs and cats, and they’ve always been the loves of my life. I share my home with three amazing dogs and have also had a cat, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of each pet. I’ve cared for tiny pups to dogs over 100 lbs, as well as seniors needing extra patience and love. I’m comfortable with basic training, administering oral medications, and keeping pets calm and happy when their people are away. Your pets will be treated like family because to me, they are.
Reviews
