About: I spent my college education learning about animals and their behaviors! My passion is to care for animals and make sure they are as happy as can be. I have trained my dog since she was a puppy and continue to train her everyday! I have had many different types of animals and dog breeds throughout my life including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and axolotls. I currently work part time at a zoo and would love to care for your pets in my free time. Assisting your animals after work and on my days off is the perfect job for me. I have taken training classes with dogs and know how to effectively get them to cooperate and I plan on giving them all the love they want

Alli is truly an exceptional pet sitter! We felt totally confident that our dog and home were in great hands. Alli is responsible, trustworthy, and incredibly caring. We came home to a happy, well-loved pup and a very clean house! Alli truly went above and beyond—not only with the loving care she gave our pup, but also with the attention she gave our home. Everything was so clean and thoughtfully cared for. Our dog struggles with anxiety during fireworks and thunderstorms, and Alli watched her over the 4th of July weekend. It was clear that she provided comfort, patience, and calm throughout—our dog was relaxed and happy when we got home, which means the world to us. Alli is thoughtful, communicative, and respectful, and we are beyond grateful for the amazing care she provided. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and detail-oriented sitter. Thank you so much, Alli—you made our trip stress-free and our return such a joy! We hope to book with you again and again!

Brooke is a wonderful pet caregiver. She is always thinking about what is best for her own dog, Eleanor. She always makes sure Eleanor is taken care of, giving her plenty of love and affection. She is one of, if not the, most responsible pet owners I know. She is also very loving and caring to all animals, whether that be helping ensure her friends pets are properly taken care of while they are away or in her role at John Ball Zoo.
