Lifetime of Love and Caring
Pet care experience
I’ve had pets at all stages of my life. Cats and a dog when I was living with my parents. Cats and a dog when I was raising my children. Cats and dogs as an adult. And most recently my 2 year old cat. My golden retriever had a litter of 8 puppies back in the 80’s and they were loved and found homes for all. I’ve pet sat recently with neighbors animals and enjoy interacting with them and learning their personalities.
Reviews
Alison is wonderful ... calm, sunny, grounded, very thoughtful, experienced. Communication is easy, and prompt: she asks the important questions, the ones that support excellent, personalized attention for the pet ... trust with the owners. Am so glad we've connected.
Alison was terrific with keeping in touch while we were gone and she kept our Daisy happy and safe. It’s hard to leave your fur baby behind but good to know that you have someone you can trust taking care of things while you are away!!
Alison was very conscientious and thorough in staying with my two Cavaliers. They were VERY happy pups while she stayed with them! She kept me informed about how they were doing, which allowed me to relax while I was gone. She also left my home in excellent condition—i never would have known anyone was here! I highly recommend Alison.
Allison was excellent. We felt comfortable leaving Lucy with her. We would highly recommend her for anyone on vacation or local to her.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not have a fenced in yard, but live on a road that is travelled by the residents only. I’m happy to walk dogs whenever they need it, rain or shine. Cats we would have to talk about a litter box. Or meet at an appropriate place to walk animals.
Information Alison M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to have your special ‘treats’ brought in case your pet is enamored with a particular treat. I believe in low calorie treats. Also, any health issues or problems interacting with other animals is important. I only have a cat at my house and she can hide until she adjusts to the new animal.
A typical day
There are rural neighborhoods around me, with ‘some’ other animals, but not a lot of them. There are parks nearby that could be ‘driven’ to if your dog can ride in a car well. And walks on the rocky coast of Maine could be arranged as well,

Availability
I’m available most days because I’m retired and would be willing to arrange sitting times to the owner’s wishes. Weekly or bi-weekly visits would work well to have a regular schedule. Both for me and for the comfort of the animal.
