Safety, trust & environment

I have an elderly cat who does not enjoy new animals so I do not provide care in my home. When I am in someone else's home I am respectful.

Information Alison J. would like to know about your pet

Please share any favorite games/toys, or any other information (separation anxiety, medication, hyperactivity, etc.) that will help your dog or cat feel at ease and happy while in my care.

A typical day

I try to have my visits be consistent with the dog/cat's normal routines. I adjust to the needs of each fur-client. Please share any details of your dog or cat's normal routine and/or favorite activities so that I can provide care that is specific to their needs and personality (ex: always plays with toy after a walk, preferred length/distance/speed of a walk, loves to be brushed, etc.)

Pet care experience

I used to spend summers dog-sitting for my neighbors so I have experience with all sorts of dogs. I have also adopted a gorgeous old cat who is now my favorite snuggle-buddy. I'd love to take care of your non-human family member(s)! Please forgive the lack of photos. I am very intentional about being present rather than being glued to my phone. This practice has been wonderful for my friendships but is not very helpful when trying to find pictures for any sort of online profile. I can promise that I will devote the same type of intentional presence to your fur baby that I devote to the other people in my life! I currently work full-time. I have more day-time flexibility in the winter (Dec-Feb). Please send me a booking request and if I'm available or need to adjust the time, I promise I will clearly communicate so that we can make sure your fur-baby receives the care they need, be it from me or another sitter if I am not available. Before staying in your home or walking with your dog, I would like to know if there are any special instructions (ex: medicines, separation anxiety) and what your normal routine is (ex: longer walk in the morning). I'd also like to know any favorite games/toys, or any other information that will help your dog or cat feel at ease and happy while in my care.

Alison is the absolute best. Our pup can’t wait to get time with her and she has helped our home run so much more smoothly by helping with our pup!

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.
