A Maltese puppy was a “crazy pants” challenge that took a special person, and Alyssa handled him.

Your dog can spend the day with a walk, play, and the attention needed to feel happy while you are away. One owner wrote, “We never have to worry when we are away.”

Alyssa J.'s Experience
I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, breeds, and personalities, including senior dogs. I currently care for two family dogs, one who is 10 and another who is 15, so I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, walks, giving attention, and making sure older pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and love spending time with animals. I also have experience dog sitting for families and understand how important it is to keep pets happy and cared for while owners are away.

Information Alyssa J. would like to know
Is there anything important I should know about your pet’s routine, personality, or care needs before the booking? I’d also love to know their favorite activities, any allergies or medications, and how they do around new people or other animals.

A typical day
As a student with a flexible schedule, I love to dedicate my time to caring for pets after classes. I enjoy taking them on walks, playing, and giving them all the attention they need to feel loved and happy while their owners are away.

Hands down the best pet sitter we’ve ever used! Alyssa took amazing care of our dog, treated our home with respect, and kept in excellent communication. We never have to worry when we are away

She was very friendly and attentive to my hairless cat. He needs special attention and she went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of.
