Doggy Day Care • Mar 16, 2025

Tessa is amazing with Rocco. Always appreciate her flexibility. Rocco does not eat his food until his home but with Tessa his comfortable and eating his food. Makes me happy to know his having a great time

Rocco had a great time with Tessa! He wasn’t even anxious! Passed out right when he got home. Thank you once again. We will be booking again with Tessa.

Tessa did an amazing job caring for my cats while I was out of town! She gives great attention and energy to the animals and follows instructions precisely. I would trust her again to take care of my animals. I have also seen her with her own dog and cat and she is clearly a loving pet parents with well-trained animals.

Hello pet parents! I would love to take a moment and rave about Tessa! She is an absolute pleasure, and I highly recommend her! My babies get extremely excited when they see her. They know it’s go time. My babies feel loved, safe, and cared for anytime Tessa comes to see them. As a pet owner, Tessa makes me feel at ease knowing that my babies are safe, cared for, and loved when they are in Tessa’s hands. When Remi and Charleigh come home, they are tuckered out!

Tessa is an exceptional pet parent! Her pets always come first in her life. She’s someone I look up to in that aspect. The thought and care she puts into ensuring her pets have the best life possible is amazing. Always on time for shots/vaccines, never goes without the necessities, always clean and groomed as well. Anyone would be lucky to have the chance for her to be their pet sitter!

Tessa is an incredible animal person. She loves all animals and takes good care of them like they are her babies! She works at a vet and always loves to be around animals. She always takes her dog anywhere she goes and makes time to treat him to a walk or play at the park. She always opens her house to anyone who needs their pets watched. She is always quick to take her pets in if they aren’t well and does whatever she needs to to make sure they are safe and healthy. She truly loves them like her born children.
