I work from home part-time in the summer and early fall, so I can easily fit in morning, midday, and evening walks or visits. My schedule is flexible, which means I can adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s early hikes or lunchtime potty breaks.

Information Tessy V. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know about your pet’s routines, energy level, favorite activities, and any special needs or quirks. Please share details on their diet, medications, training cues, and how they are with other dogs, people, and wildlife.

A typical day

A typical day might start with a morning walk or run, followed by playtime or cuddles at home. Depending on your dog’s energy, we might stroll around the golf course, explore local trails, or head out for a hike. In between adventures, there’s plenty of rest, fresh water, and attention to keep them happy and relaxed.

Your Pup’s Adventure Buddy

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Tess, an active, animal-loving sitter who works from home part-time during the summer and early fall. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life (mostly large breeds), fostered both dogs and cats locally and abroad, and even helped housebreak puppies. Whether your pup needs a relaxed walk around the golf course or a big adventure up Sea to Summit, I’ll match their energy level. Between walks, I’m all about cuddles, playtime, and making sure your pet feels safe and happy.

Tessy was great with my 7 month old puppy. He came home calm and well exercised. She was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Thank you Tessy!

Tessy and her partner Dan love our dog as if it’s their own and they are our first ask when we need someone to look after our sensitive and a bit anxious Thalia. Tess will make sure your dog gets lots of exercise (great for lunch walks) and will be well loved and cuddled for at night for longer stays. Tessy takes the time to learn your dog’s needs and will go to great lengths to make them feel comfortable and at home with her. Thalia loves her (she doesn’t love everyone) and we can’t recommend her enough!

Our dog Sugar loved her day with Tessy! She went out of her way to help pick Sugar up and made sure she was well exercised and taken care of throughout the day
