Ready to love on your baby!

I have been caring for both dogs & cats my whole life and I am a huge pet lover. I have one pet at home, Vinny and he is very friendly and social with all dogs! I love going on walks and taking dogs to the dog parks (if allowed)! I am also a big cat lover and will happily hang out with any fur baby!

Alisa was a great host for our active, but older, golden retriever. We picked him up and could tell he was happy there. Alisa is easy to communicate with and responsive. I would recommend her and hope to use her again.

Not even your hair dresser who sees you once a month may remember you. Not so with Alisa. It had been several months since my pups were with her, yet she readily remembered them and their respective quirks. Even better, they remembered her and by the wags of their tails as they left me, the pups knew they were in for another great stay!

Such a wonderful experience! Betsy was spoiled and loved on by Alisa’s entire family. This was Betsy’s 1st experience being cared for by someone we didn’t know-she felt completely at home and at peace,-which was so comforting for me. Alisa has a big yard and Betsy was in Heaven with all of the yard time and fetching fun! I had great communication with Alisa while I was away and she sent pictures and videos that were so special to see! I would highly recommend Alisa!

Alisa is great to communicate with, and she is super patient with my shy, antisocial Siamese!

Schedule

I am a teacher I work August-May, but between my husband and I, we are only away from 9-3pm on weekdays. We have lots of time in the morning & afternoon to play with your sweet pet. I do have a 2 year old toddler so your pet would need to be okay with a small child around. He comes with me to all my walks or drops ins during the week days. I play fetch with my own pupper at least once a day in our backyard. We also go on walks at night or a trip to the park. Sundays we go on a group dog walk on the Greenbelt.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced back yard to allow play time for your doggo! My home is pet friendly & I can accommodate any animal depending on their specific needs. I do have stairs to get to my backyard though, so I have found older dogs do struggle a little. My dog Vinny is crate trained, but he only goes in there if needed. I can do either when hosting a new guest! We welcome dogs to hangout & sleep where ever they are most comfortable.

Pets

A typical day

I love to go on walks along the Greenbelt & play fetch with dogs at the dog park (I always OK this first as I know some dogs don’t love the dog park). I have a big back yard to hangout with many dogs in as well!
