Availability

I have recently moved to Delaware to be closer to family. With this new move, I also hope to focus on my art career and get more involved in the community. With that being said, my schedule is very flexible! I am a morning-person who loves to exercise early, so morning dog walks/pet care wouldn't be a problem! I also do not mind being up later at night, if that is what your pet needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very good at following specific instructions for pet-care in one’s own home. I have experience caring for both old and young pets, as well as pets with additional needs, such as routine medications and vitamins. I care for other’s homes and pets how I would want someone to care for my own. I am extremely respectful, and will make sure your pet and home are my first priority! When housesitting, I am also able to give animals as many walks/play time as desired. Although I have a dog of my own, I will not be bringing my dog along for walks/housesitting (my husband is able to watch him at home). I also am in constant communication with the owner, when caring for their pet.

Information Alison B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any specific needs, such as medications, behavioral traits, fears, or triggers. Please also let me know if your pet has a favorite thing to do or toy to play with! Along with that, I would like to know common commands that are used in the home for the pet.

A typical day

I would love to learn about what your pets love to do, along with their quirky personality traits! I would love to take walks (either long or short, depending on the dog's needs), as well as spend time playing outside! While inside, I love to make sure the pets know they are being given the attention they need, whether that being playing with toys, playing games, or just keeping engaged. I have experience with both high-energy and low energy pets, so I will cater this time carefully to what they need!

Lover of All Animals, Young and Old

Pet care experience

I’ve always had a dog in my life, and it was my responsibility since I was young to care for our family pets! I am 32, and at the age of 13 I started housesitting dogs/cats for neighbors and friends. Consistently in the last 10 years, I have taken care of pets for family and friends while they are out of town. I have a 15 year old dog who is blind, so I understand the desire to have someone give specific care and love to an animal with special needs. Every animal I take care of, I care for like it's my own! I have cared for multiple large dogs at once, dogs with high energy demands, as well as dogs as young as puppies or as old as seniors. I have also been a nanny for the last 5 years, so respecting someone’s home and space is essential to me.

Alison knocked it out of the park once again! She house sat our precious Sherman for 5 nights and did a fabulous job! We never have to worry about him receiving excellent care while we are away. She is the absolute best!!!

Alison is awesome!!! She just did an overnight with our Sherman, who was not feeling well, and went above and beyond to take care of him. I would highly recommend her.
