Pet care is already a part of my everyday life. Outside of caring for client pets, you’ll usually find me spending time with my own dogs, going on walks and hikes, working on training, and socializing. Caring for animals isn’t just my job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy every single day.

Safety, trust & environment

All pup’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. My home is fully fenced for safe outdoor play, and dogs enjoy plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment activities, toys, and opportunities to relax throughout the day. Every dog is different, so I do my best to match their energy level and personality, whether they love to play with friends or prefer a little 1-on-1 attention. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, meals and treats are enjoyed separately, followed by a quiet rest break in their own cozy crate. I use crates as a positive, comfortable space to relax after meals as downtime which helps support healthy digestion before everyone is back to playing and exploring together.

Information Alison D. would like to know about your pet

I love getting the full scoop so I can care for your pet like you do! Please let me know their routine, energy level, favorite activities, quirks, fears, and anything that helps them feel safe and happy. Are they reactive to anything (dogs, people, bikes, squirrels)? Any medical needs, allergies, or special feeding instructions?

A typical day

I’m big on adventures and letting dogs actually be dogs. We go on nature walks, explore wooded trails, hit dog-friendly stores/parks for social time, and of course plenty of sniff breaks. I love mixing in play, little training moments, and just vibing outdoors.

Pet care experience

As a dog mom myself I know it’s nerve wracking having to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care.. That’s why I make it priority to give every pet parent the same peace of mind I’d want for my own dogs. When your fur-baby is with me, they’re treated like one of my own. I know no two pets are alike, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences. So whether they love to play, need extra enrichment, enjoy quiet companionship, or do better with structure, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they’re used to at home so they feel comfortable! I also love keeping pet parents involved, so you can expect lots of photos, videos, and updates throughout their stay or visit!

I can't recommend her enough! She has been absolutely wonderful with my dog and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule, which I truly appreciate. It's not easy to find someone you completely trust with your fur baby, but I have total peace of mind knowing he's in her care. She is reliable, caring, and always keeps me updated. My pup is always happy and well cared for after every visit, and I know he's in good hands. If you're looking for someone dependable, flexible, and trustworthy, I highly recommend booking with her!

Alison was so amazing! She communicated throughly and kept me updated on her arrival/walk with my Charley girl. Thankful she went the extra mile because that helped put me at ease. I would book her again any day! :)

Absolutely amazing dog sitter! Kind, reliable, and attentive. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved every minute. The regular updates gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! 🐾 Thanks Alison !
