Highlights
Pet care experience
Future friend to your pet!
I've been around dogs, cats and birds for most of my life. I have experience with puppies to seniors, tiny breeds to biggies. I also have some experience administering oral and eye medicine when I housed foster dogs and took care of a friend's cat!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Since recently moving to Madison, I have been overjoyed to discover Alisha. She has become a lovely caregiver for my anxious rescue dog. Our partnership kicked off with a thorough meet-and-greet that instantly built trust, evolving into drop-in visits and dog-walking sessions, with overnight house-sitting on the horizon for future needs. Alisha's calm, nurturing demeanor is exactly what my dog needs, who has a challenging history of anxiety and trust issues. Alisha consistently shares reassuring photos alongside detailed updates, giving me peace of mind no matter how long I'm away. I would highly recommend Alisha to fellow dog owners, especially those with loving yet challenging pets that require extra patience and understanding. Hazel is forming a genuine bond with her, displaying real joy and relaxation in her presence—precisely what I hoped for—and I eagerly look forward to booking her services again.

Alisha was awesome with Moose & sent us updates! She truly went above and beyond in caring for our dog & home! I’m so grateful she was able to watch him!
Alisha was excellent at communicating and we felt our cats were well taken care of. They didn't even seem to acknowledge us when we got home! We recommend Alisha for your pet-sitting needs.
Alisha was prompt and communicative, sending us pictures of the critters, and left a detailed note when she left. We’re very glad to have her as our new sitter.
Alisha is genuinely one of the most responsible people I know. My dog Forest loves her! I would definitely rely on her to hang out with Forest any time I'd need it :)
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I recently moved back to the Madison area after working abroad. I am in the process of looking for a permanent job in the area. I am a PhD Marine scientist who has a lot of flexibility in their schedule, meaning I am often working from home or working non traditional hours. This may line up with those who need a check in or walk during the day
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to comply with whatever is needed for care in your home! I value timeliness and tidiness and will respect your pet and space :)
A typical day
I love exploring new spaces on walks but also am happy to sit and play with toys to get zoomies out. If you are in the process of training, I can support those efforts and will be diligent in repetition.
