Information Alison H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or favorite toys so I can be sure they're kept healthy and entertained throughout our walk or stay together.

A typical day

I run every day and a happy to take your dog with me if they like to run too! If not, happy to take it slow so they can stop and smell the scents :) I love a good scratch or pet session with a pup, a rowdy game of fetch, and will make sure your dog is well nourished and cared for throughout the day.

Your dog's fun and active pal!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am originally from New York, where I have over 10 years of dog walking experience. I love walking with Rover and getting to know the city I call home even better. I spent two years in Nepal serving with the US Peace Corps and helped my host family raise a puppy. I am eager to meet you and your dogs! I am a very active person and can ensure that your dog will have a fun explorative walk. If your dog likes to run with people, let me know and I'll plan to go for a run with them! I will be very communicative with you and attentive to your needs and the needs of your pooch. My goal is that your dog has a safe enjoyable walk that leaves him/her feeling refreshed and that you return home to find your dog happy and eager to greet you. I am a grad student so my schedule can be variable, but is generally flexible. Happy to discuss scheduling further if you feel I could be a match for your pup :) My rental apartment is not currently set up to host dogs or cats for an extended period of time. Happy to travel to you and your animals instead!

We feel so comfortable having Alison stay with our pup! He’s older and recovering from surgery and she was so mindful with understanding his needs and giving him his meds. She sent lots of pictures and left the house in pristine condition!

Alison was amazing! We were gone for a week and she took fantastic care of our dog. Tons of long walks and a few photo updates every day. I would highly recommend her!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
