Pet care experience
*UPDATE: 01/11/22 - OPEN AGAIN TO LIMITED CLIENTS - SMALL/MEDIUM DOGS ONLY - ONLY ACCEPTING 2 CLIENTS AT A TIME* _________________________________________________________ Hi! I'm Tessa and I'm very enthusiastic about taking care of your pups. Originally from Toronto, came to the United States with my animal familiar to be closer to my husband whom was serving in the Marine Corps. I'm classically trained in theater and choose to express that education through stand-up. I've performed in shady night-clubs from Toronto to San Diego. I've also volunteered for the San Diego Pug Rescue, and have an award winning pug (scariest costume Halloween 2016). I offer boarding in our large house in Silver Spring. We have two cats and two dogs already living in the house, but all are up to date on their shots and very friendly to guests. Happy to commute to you to pick up your pet.
Reviews
Tessa has been great with my two dogs. We look forward to the descriptive daily updates and photos. She has been responsive and provided lots of stimulation and TLC for our dogs. Tessa will definitely be the first person I reach out to for a sitter.
At this point it's hard to remember how many times Tessa has watched our smell hound Penny. Fantastic care provided every time.
Fantastic care for our hound!
Tessa was super communicative and sent great updates and pictures of our special needs senior pup. He was well cared for during his stay and she was very flexible with our schedule. Would recommend Tessa for anybody looking for a great dog sitter!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets mainly on my first floor, which is divided into sections with pet gates. Walks are always leashed and longer walks get to explore Sligo Creek.

Information Tessa W. would like to know about your pet
Once you message me I will send you a questionnaire to go over, so I can better tell if your pooch is a good match.
A typical day
First thing in the morning we go out for a full walk. If your pet eats breakfast, it's served after the walk (each pet is severed separately to avoid territorial nature). Otherwise they'll probably get some good treats to last them until dinner. Several walks/pee breaks in the middle of the day, along with lots of toys to play with (and usually this human to play along).

Availability
Usually I will fit your pet to the same schedule as my pug Toffee. I am home 24/7 and my goodness is my pug spoiled :)
