Ali's Critter Care
Pet care experience
**Please Note: I am fully vaccinated but I often wear a mask as a precaution. It is your choice whether to wear a mask or not. Need someone to take care of your pets while you are on vacation? Or even just come by during the day? Dogs, cats, birds, rodents, reptiles, I can be of service. I also can bring in your mail, water, plants, or other various house-sitting duties during any overnight stay with your pet. I have reliable transportation and can provide references from current, satisfied clients. I am college-educated and offer flexible rates to meet your budget. I owned a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel for 10 years. I have also done pet sitting for various clients in California, New York, and Connecticut. I have walked dogs since I was 11 years old. I have worked as a volunteer for TVAR and East Bay SPCA with both cats and dogs. New Clients: If you wish to book with me, please notify me within 24-48 hours of your planned trip so that we can arrange a meet and greet. It is my primary source of income and it is a priority to me. So, pet care is prominent in my daily calendar. It is something I do almost every day. I often have other pet sitting jobs going on simultaneously with house sitting (drop-ins, walks). I will notify you if I need to step out of the house at any time during my stay. I take pride in my work and try to satisfy the needs of the owner and the pet. I will show up at a specific time every day if you make this requirement very clear. I often text pictures to the owner of your pet and I playing, cuddling, and sitting on my lap.

Thank you again for watching our girls and our home while we were away!
Alison goes above and beyond. I've been using her services for years, will continue to do so, and will recommend her to anyone.
Alison took great care of our two kitties for the couple of days we were gone! We had to cut our trip short and Alison was flexible with the schedule change. She came for a full half hour each visit and gave detailed Rover cards after each one, which was really nice to have! :)
About Alison M.
Communication
Skills
Information Alison M. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog have any food aggression? Where does your dog normally sleep? How much affection does your pet normally require? If you have a bigger dog, how does your dog behave on the leash? Does your dog have any separation anxiety? How long can your dog be left alone if I need to step out of the house due to another committment? These other commitments are often other pet sitting jobs.
A typical day
With my dog clients, I will walk them as many times per day as you request. If I am doing house sitting, I will do everything in my power to spend as much time as possible in your home with your pet. If I have any other commitments during a house-sitting job that requires me to leave the home, I will notify you as soon as possible.
