I love all creatures big and small.

Pet care experience

About booking with me: -I need to do a meet and greet with new clients before I will sit. If you cancel a meet and greet less than 2 hours before there maybe an added charge. - I will reach out once or twice a day with photos or small updates. - While you are away I may have questions so please be able to have a way to answer them. And also incase of an emergency. - I need 2 WEEKS (14 days) notice if you need me to be there 24/7 if the dog has anxiety. Otherwise I cannot promise to be there, as I have a part time job. I was a certified dog trainer at Petsmart. I have watched dog's with diabetes's and with epilepsy, and my own dog, Melody, had heart issues so I have to give her medication twice daily, pills. I have house sat and pet sat for many friends and family. I love doing it, I love meeting new animals. I love all animal's really; I even horse back ride. I've had fish before.

Tessa is very communicative. She left our house absolutely spotless. I could tell my dogs had a great visit with her when we got home they were all very happy not stressed at all. We would highly recommend Tessa to housesit and take care of your animals.

Safety, trust & environment

I love cuddling with fur babies, I like walks, I can train as well while I am there if needed. Though if the training isn't consistent with you doing it as well it may not work. I am very much a home body so I will be with the dog unless I have work and that is usually only a few hours. Walks every day and whatever you need from me we can go over!

Information Tessa R. would like to know about your pet

Medication, does it get along with other dogs? Fears? Does it hate a certain animal/breed. Does it loose leash walk or an avid puller? Does it hate car rides? Any special routines you need me to be aware of.

A typical day

Breakfast the most important meal of the day. Then lots of pets and cuddles. Around 6:30 am in the summer I try to give a walk because its so hot out here. Playing fetch in the back yard, or tug of war.
