My schedule is incredibly flexible! I work freelance, which means I have the freedom to dedicate plenty of quality time to your dog all week long. I’m open for weekday walks and drop-ins, and my weekends are available for boarding or extended stays. I absolutely love being outside, so taking your pup out for walks is a total highlight of my day, never a chore!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pup will feel right at home in my tidy, pet-friendly studio! I’m all about giving one-on-one attention, staying highly alert on our walks, and making sure they feel completely safe and cozy indoors. I stick strictly to the routines you’ve set up so their day-to-day stays predictable and stress-free. Bottom line: I'll care for your dog just like family.

Information Tessa K. would like to know about your pet

Please share any dietary restrictions, allergies, or special feeding schedules they follow. I’d also love to know about their energy level, behavioral quirks, or medical needs ahead of time. I’m patient and adaptable with all breeds and personalities, and having these details helps me provide the most comfortable, attentive care possible.

A typical day

I love keeping pups thriving with a healthy routine of outdoor walking, active play, and rest when needed. I always go at your pup's pace!

Calm and caring dog walker

Pet care experience

My name is Tessa and I’m from Oregon! I work in film production but have a lot of free time in between jobs. I’m very passionate about pups (all pups- young and old, large and small) and really just enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. My family had two amazing labs growing up who really shaped my love for dogs. I’m also a calm and easy-going person who is able to handle stressful situations with ease. This is a skill I have refined through my current work and one that translates well to caring for all types of dogs. It’s been said many times before- but dogs are too good for us. I really, truly believe that. They deserve all the love and care in the world.

Tessa is a trustworthy, skilled pet sitter. She has done a great job working with my cat, who can be difficult and at times combative. Tessa has always demonstrated great communication and responsiveness.

Tessa is incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and has always had such a natural connection with my animals. My dog, Jenna, has loved her from day one. She recently watched both Jenna and my cat, Myles, and took amazing care of them. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were with someone who genuinely loves and cares for animals as much as she does. I can’t recommend Tessa enough, your pets would be in good hands!
