Pet care experience
NOW GROOMING STARTING AT $45! Dogs are the most caring and trustworthy creatures on the planet, and I believe that they deserve the same kind of love that we’re used to! I’ve always been driven by dogs to do what I can to give back, so being a sitter really is a dream come true for me. I love the fact that I can help animals thrive while providing owners with peace of mind while they’re away from their best friend. I’m currently studying to be a Veterinary Technician, so there’s really no better way for me to spend my time than caring for pups everywhere! My love for dogs started at a very early age. I’ve always lived with at least one dog, but my experience doesn’t end there. I helped raise three separate litters of puppies when I was younger and all helped them transition into their forever homes. It was such an amazing experience! I’ve also been working professionally as a sitter and walker for the last three years, so I have tons of experience working with clients of all stripes. I’m currently studying to be a Veterinary Technician online, and can’t wait to use my talents to help animals live their best lives! I also have a very friendly 3-year-old Yorkshire Terrier of my own right now who would love to make some new friends! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all. When your pup is with me, going above and beyond is just the name of my game! I always treat your pup as if they were my own, which means that they will be spoiled with love and attention! I also know that dogs are creatures of habit, so I’m happy to stick with any schedules and regimens that your pup is on. That way, they can feel like they are right at home and be anxiety-free. I’m also very big on communication, and I send tons of regular updates so you can get a close look on how your pup is doing with me. Likewise, that will include lots of pictures so you can see just how much fun we’re having! I’ll be available to take your calls and texts at any time of the day and night, so never hesitate to ask any questions.
Reviews
I think she is a good sitter. I was just disappointed that beds/ blanket that I packed for my dog wreaked of pee when the doggy bag was returned to me. Not sure if my dog was made to stay in a crate with the smells or if her dog pee on the bed but you can tell the pee had been left to sit for days. I wasn’t given a heads up I had to find out later on when I unpacked my dogs bag. My doggy poop bag holder came back with a missing top so I have to buy a new one. Then on the way home my dog threw up.. so after vacation I was frustrated to have to clean all my dogs thing including her. Sorry but can’t risk returning; maybe she’s better with older dogs.
I am very grateful with Alesha. My fur baby kept on standing up on the car seat trying to look for her as we were leaving. He normally does not do that if he doesn't have a connection with someone. She kept me updated at all times and I was nervous about leaving him but at the end she was just amazing and great sitting him. Thank you again Alesha, I will definitely reach out to her when I leave out of town.
Alesha was by far my first choice when I needed a dog sitter. During our time away, she stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving our little Marley behind. Above all, Alesha is trustworthy, and our dog love her. We would be happy to provide personal references upon request.
Alesha provided good care for Wilson. We will use her services again in the future, and have the new headphones!!

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
Your pup and I will do a bit of everything together! We will take nice morning walks after we wake up, evening walks before we go to sleep, play fun games at the dog park with my dog Chewy, and have all sorts of cool toys to place with. Later on in the day, we will snuggle up on the couch together and Watch Netflix movies until it's time to go to bed. I live in an apartment complex called Courtyard Park. My neighborhood is pretty quiet most of the time and am right across the street from a middle school with lots of kids that LOVE to say hi to cute pups like you! A lot of the residents here have dogs, so I’m sure we’ll make tons of friends along the way! I don’t have a backyard, but I do have a park behind my complex where I usually take dogs to let loose and have fun with each other. There are no kids that use that park so I thought I'd put it to good use. The complex is even working on officially turning it into a dog park!
