16. Allison C.
About: I have extensive experience pet sitting cats and dogs in the homes of multiple clients. I have been pet sitting for the past four years, and also have many dogs and cats at home that I am experienced in taking care of. I am experienced in walking dogs of all sizes and, having been trained in walking and feeding by the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire, am well prepared to provide care to animals. I am able to provide services including: feeding, walks, giving, medications, and house sitting. I am a lawyer with a fully remote job, so I have a lot of flexibility in terms of schedule and location. I am able to fit pet care into my routine as necessary and typically am free on the weekends. I care for pets in clients’ homes as if they were my own. I always make sure their needs are met, that they are safe, and that they feel comfortable.
