Alayza is a dog whisperer! She’s amazing, kind and patient. My dog has big stranger danger and fear aggression when meeting someone new and it seems he warmed up to her pretty quickly. By the second day he was cuddling with her and letting her pet him! I highly recommend Alayza!

It was our first time booking Aiayana and she did a fantastic job taking care of my dog during the holiday season. We loved her personality right from our first meeting! Aiayana kept us updated by sending pictures of Ginger's daily routine and she went the extra mile when my dog had an accident on the carpet. Additionally, she left the house spotless and even cleaned my cat's litter box, which was not a part of her job. We'll definitely book her again!

About: Apart from growing up with 2 large dogs, I also went to school for biology with a few courses concentrating in plant and animal science. My goal profession surrounds taking care and researching things related to people and animals and has been my passion for 5+ years. I currently work part time, so doing this in my free time fits perfectly into my routine! My availability differs week to week until further notice, but I am free most days. I make each pet’s well-being my top priority by following their usual routines for feeding, exercise, and care. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets feel secure. I give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated for peace of mind.

Nicole stepped in for me last minute and watched my dog and cat during the holidays. She constantly communicated with me and sent me videos and pictures. She sent me updates about my pets and my house. She even went as far as to let me know I had fruit flies and threw out the bad fruit. My dog and cat love her and her son! I would work with Nicole 10000 times again.

Alysha had 2 large dogs growing up that she loved. Everyday she would make sure they were well walked, played with, interacted them with other dogs, and took pride in maintaining their health. Though she's moved away from home, she still checks in with her dogs and makes sure they have everything they need when she comes home to visit.
