Information Tessa S. would like to know about your pet

I am a trained medical provider for people. I am capable of caring for pets who need medication, injections, or have any special diet instructions. Let me know details about your pet care!

A typical day

Naps on the deck or the lawn. Walks in the dog friendly neighborhood, and possibly meeting some of the regulars. Play time, tug-of-war, belly rubs, or maybe a movie, music or podcast. Wildlife is abundant in my neighborhood. Perhaps your pupper will watch birds, squirrels, and the occasional deer while you’re away on a trip.

Tessa is kind and professional! She and her dog Tennessee took such good care of Duro. My mind was perfectly at ease. Absolutely recommend!

Tessa has been an absolute delight and I'm so glad to have trusted her with my Trixie. She helped celebrate Trixie's birthday and took her on so many walks and ample outside time! Highly recommend Tessa (and Tennessee)!

Tessa was a fabulous sitter for 9 days with our 15 yo dog, Zoey! We rarely leave her, but needed someone we could really trust so we could fully enjoy Disney & Universal. She came highly recommended by a mutual friend & her neighbor. Tessa sent updates and photos at least 3x per day. We couldn’t be happier with her service!!

Our little pup Rena absolutely enjoyed her stay with Tessa! We were given the best pup-dates throughout the day and enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup having the best vacation with Tessa and Tennessee. Thank you for your care, attention, and love to Rena! Tessa was also super flexible with drop off after we had to deal with a medical emergency and I am so grateful for that!
