Veternary Technician Student

Pet care experience

I grew up on a small farm in Northeast Oklahoma. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Pigs, Horses, Cattle, Goats and Buffalo. My whole life I've been hands on with domestic animals and wildlife. I am currently a Veterinary Technician student. I plan on recieving an associates degree in applied sciences, a bachelors in Wildlife Biology and Conservation with a Veterinary Technician certification specializing in large animals. I love being outside and feel joy and comfort being around animals. I live on the first floor of a two flat. We have a fenced in backyard. Access to parks, Brownline Lake Michigan dog park and CTA. I have a Toyota Highlander Hybrid and will be able to transport animals easily. I'm a very athletic woman and have no issues lifting, running with, playing with or controlling animals.

Tessie came through in a pinch when a family emergency sent us scrambling to find someone to watch our dog around the holidays. We really appreciate that Tessie could step in and be so flexible around our needs!

Information Tessie S. would like to know about your pet

Please only spayed and neutered pets. Acceptions are only for puppies under 12 weeks. No agressive history towards humans or other dogs. If your dog has ever showed aggression I will not accept it. Is your dog crate trained? Or is it free to roam without making a mess? Does your dog pee in the house or chew on stuff? Does your dog bark and howl? All pets must be up to date on all vaccines. Proof required. All pets MUST BE PARASITE FREE! If your pet isn't parasite free and you do not divulge the information to me you will be charged a cleaning/sanitizing fee of no less than $250. Pets with PARASITES ARE NOT accepted.

A typical day

I love to play frisbee and fetch with dogs. I live near multiple parks, Montrose dog beach and have a fenced backyard. Inside I have plenty of comfy places to relax, dog toys, air conditioning and treat balls. Please note: if a dog is picked up after 12:00pm on the pick-up day of boarding a doggy daycare rate will be added. If a pet stays longer than 12 hours during doggy daycare the stay will be considered a boarding.
