Dog lover who works from home

We're so excited to welcome your pup into our home. We're a dog-loving family with two dogs of our own, Sonic and Ziggy, who keep us on our toes and know how to make any four-legged guest feel right at home. We treat every dog who stays with us like part of the family with plenty of playtime, cozy naps, and lots of love. Whether your dog is a snuggler, a zoomies enthusiast, or somewhere in between, we'll make sure they're happy, safe, and having a blast until you're back. Can't wait to meet your dog!

Tessa is the most kind and caring individual. You can count on feeling comfortable with her caring for your pet. She treats all pets like her own. She always shows understanding and patience towards my dog. She is extremely attentive and patient with the biggest dog mom heart. 10/10 recommend. Time apart from your dog can be difficult, but I know I feel at ease knowing that Tessa provides such a safe, fun, and loving environment for my doggo🐶🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺🦴🐾🫶🏻

Tessa has watched my dogs multiple times and is amazing! My dogs love playing in her yard and I love the peace of mind I have leaving them with her. She sends photos when I ask and always loves on them like they are her own! Highly recommend Tessa to care for your pups!

Tessa has taken care of both of our dogs multiple times over the last couple of years! We have peace of mind with her fenced in back yard, clear communication skills, and getting pictures of our babies is a bonus! She is our go to girl when it comes to our dog’s placement while traveling!

Schedule

Pet care is woven into our everyday routine, not squeezed around it. Tessa works from home, so your dog gets company and check-ins throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches. Jared and Tessa split walks, play, and feeding so your pup always has attention nearby. We're flexible and happy to match whatever schedule your dog is already used to, whether that's an early riser or a night owl.

Safety, trust & environment

Our home has a fully fenced backyard, so your dog gets safe, secure outdoor time without a leash getting in the way of play. We keep a close eye on all pets in our care and treat every dog like part of the family. We introduce dogs slowly and let them set the pace for getting comfortable, rather than forcing interactions. We will meet your pup where they are comfortable and make them feel right at home!

Pets

A typical day

Days start with a morning walk to get everyone's energy out and set a good tone. From there, it's a mix of backyard play, potty breaks, and plenty of downtime for snuggling, since Tessa's home all day to keep your dog company. We take cues from your dog's personality: high energy pups get more active play, while more laid-back dogs get extra cuddle time. Sonic and Ziggy are usually happy to join in, too if your dog enjoys canine company.

We'd love to know your dog's personality, energy level, and comfort around other dogs, especially since we have our own two pups at home. Please share any feeding schedules, medications, allergies, or anxieties so we can meet your dog exactly where they're comfortable. Details on leash manners, favorite toys, and potty habits are also a big help. The more we know ahead of time, the smoother the transition into our home and routine will be.
