Information Tessa S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know ahead of time anything that might scare or make your pup feel uneasy. I’d also like to know of things that he/she loves so I can make the time being as fun as possible.

A typical day

A typical day for me would be a daily walk/run around my neighborhood. Tons of play time and maybe even a lake day if the mom/ dad is okay with it. I love spending time with animals and if the pup is more senior, a cozy day at home is okay too!

What’s better than a dog date!

Pet care experience

Growing up with all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, horses, birds, etc) I couldn’t picture my life without furry friends. Not only do I have tons of experience working with all sorts of animals, I have experience with housesitting pets as well, as it was always a side job for me.

Thank you Tessa. You did a great job walking Luna 4 times yesterday. I love that you text me and sent pics every time. I was so impressed and confident with your professionalism and we look forward to our next booking with you. Very Highly Recommended.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
