Loving pet sitter, teacher schedule

Pet care experience

I’ve always been the go-to person for friends and family to call when they need pet care. I care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes!

Alison went above and beyond! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing she was there to take care of our fur babies! That gave us such peace of mind! Alison text us & sent us pictures. Not only is she good at this, but she is such a sweetheart! We truly cannot say enough about Alison! Thank you ?

Our old girl takes a little while to warm up, and Alison has been so patient. Alison has even altered her arrival time to coincide with when our pup is more awake and receptive after her morning nap. So glad we tapped Alison and are grateful for the TLC she gives our special rescue.

Allison was amazing. She stayed at our house. She played with Rosie. She watered plants and took care of the house. She was knowledgeable and professional. She sent us pictures. Rosie enjoyed having someone here with her. Allison is definitely a top notch sitter.

Alison is the BEST pet sitter and walker for my two dogs, Reggie and Jameson, and the cat, Lady Oscar. She always checks-in with me when I'm traveling with little videos or photos. And once left me a report card for Reggie that I've cherished - she gave him an A++ :). Jameson is a older with a leg that needs care/caution and she's so thoughtful to make sure he's always taken care of. As for Oscar, she is indoor/outdoor and although is usually a bit shy of people these days, comes to see her. Alison is trust-worthy, considerate, and treats my pets like they're her own which means the world to me when looking for a great pet sitter/walker/care-giver. When needed she's stayed at my house for longer trips too and she's always kept my house clean and provided me that peace of mind to have someone there with the boys/Lady O. She's the best. Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I find it best to keep pets in their own environment where they are safe and comfortable. This way they also have all of their toys, bones etc and can feel calm with a new person. Additionally I always try my best to keep them on the same schedule you have them on, so their life is disrupted as little as possible while their people are away.

Information Alison H. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if your dogs work well with other dogs, how they behave on walks when seeing other dogs. Do they have certain triggers like loud noises or other animals? I have experience with dogs of all sizes, but knowing their patterns helps me keep them safe and secure in all environments.

A typical day

I like to keep the pets I spend time with on the same schedule as when their parents are home. If you walk them at a certain time I will do the same, if they love to spend time outside I will spend some time with them!

I am a local teacher who also loves to spend time with animals! If you’d like to book with me your pup should be on about an 8hour potty break schedule as I am tied up during the day. On the weekends I’m free to let them out as they please.
