Flexible schedule!

Pet care experience

I have always loved dogs and they entertain me as much as I entertain them. I switched from working with young kids every day to a remote position and I miss running around. I would love to use that energy to help out others and their furry friends. I adore getting to really know a dog's personality and being able to bond with them. I grew up on a farm with dogs and I am also experienced with working with senior dogs. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats with my fiancé. I'm willing to complete basic obedience training, and I have specialized skills (like dog CPR and first aid) to provide you with peace of mind and your dog the best care possible. I have July and August off work, and when I do return to work in the fall, I work primarily from home!

Alison exceeded expectations with her visits! She was always quick to respond to messages and went above and beyond with the care of our two cats. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. :)

We are so lucky to have found Ali! Dot enjoys spending time with Ali and we appreciate that she will go out of her way for us. Ali gives detailed notes, including all food and bathroom breaks and has taken to Dot’s medicine schedule with ease. I absolutely recommend having Ali watch your beloved pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard for my own floofs. I love to get fresh air daily and love to include a furry friend on the excursion. We'll probably also get a fun sniff break or two!

Information Alison D. would like to know about your pet

I'd love the chance to get to know your dog's favorite toys and activities, likes/dislikes, sensitivities, possible triggers, and overall personality. I can tailor your pup's experience to their interests. High energy dogs can get long runs at the dog park; snuggly little ones can get cuddles on the couch.

A typical day

I love to explore the trails and parks in the Zumbro Valley! I try to incorporate physical and mental stimulation daily. Teaching new commands and tricks is also always a fun challenge for your dog and me!

My schedule is very flexible, and I'm happy to make almost any date work! I have routines with my own fur babies and understand the importance of keeping up a daily schedule.
