Pet care experience

I love your pets!

Thank you for visiting my profile and considering me for your pet care needs! My name is Alanis. I hold a bachelor's degree in biology and have grown up with a passion for animals. Animals big or small, scaly or fuzzy are a delight for me to experience. I had a hedgehog, Quilly, for 4 years and currently have 2 personal aquariums, one with a betta fish and one with a large community of peaceful freshwater fish. I've been keeping fish on my own for 10 years now. I also currently have my lovely pup Gingerbread, who I spoil with my whole heart and soul! She is a smart, sassy miniature poodle with a loving and passionate personality. I tend to enjoy educating myself on pets, their quirks and their needs, so I often research online in order to provide the best possible care for them. If I could, I would adopt any animal that needs a home! I would love to have the opportunity to give your pet the same careful and loving attention like I give my own. Caring for animals is a gratifying experience and making sure they are happy is my goal. It makes me happy to make your pets happy!

Alanis took such wonderful care of my little Ziggy! She sent me the cutest pictures and videos throughout his stay, which helped make me feel so comfortable. Alanis is the best!! Ziggy and I are so grateful for her!!

Great sitter. We had a last minute need and Alanis saved the day. She was great with our 4 month old pup. She spent an hour with her and we couldn’t be happier. We will 100% recommend and use her services again. THANK YOU!!!

Pets

A typical day

During a drop-in visit, I'll make sure to tidy your pet's roaming areas and give them fresh food and water. I'll give them bathroom breaks and some play time with their favorite toys. If I am boarding, I will make sure that your pup will have safe and supervised play with my own. With your express permission, if your dog is friendly and non-reactive, they may also go on "field trips" with myself and Gingerbread, like outings to pet-friendly areas, the dog beach, or the dog park! Please note that I AM NOT able to board un-neutered males at this time as they tend to bother my dog and will not leave her alone. This is both for the safety and happiness of all pets involved and I appreciate your understanding!
