Affordable and experienced sitter!

Pet care experience

Hello there! I am a recent graduate from Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, FLorida as an anthropology major with minors in biology and art. I have extensive background experience both working with and caring for animals, including dogs. I am currently an environmental educator working with permanently injured birds of prey and also working in wildlife rehabilitation. I have had dogs my entire, along with various other animals. I can handle tasks from basic feedings and walks to administrating medication (through pills or shots, I have experience with both). I can do long -term or one-night sittings. Multiple animals are no problem, either! I hope you will consider me to be your dog sitter in the future :) Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover for my entire life and a dog owner since I was three years old. My experience administering medication Yes, I have owned animals who require medication every day via syringe. I am comfortable giving pills, shots, etc.

Alison is excellent with all animals, particularly with dogs. She has a large Great Pyrenees/Australian Shepherd mix named Mochi whom she raised from a puppy. She has also pet sat for numerous people over the years (including myself). She has always been a trustworthy and responsible person, and is very observant of animals needs, wants, and physical well being. She is very active around St. Petersburg, and knows all the best places to walk dogs. She has a wonderfully friendly and understanding personality, making her great to work with. She's an excellent dog sitter and walker!

Alison has to be one of the most devoted pet sitters I have ever come across. She is a huge animal lover and the dogs love her right back! Smart, friendly, and responsible she is someone you and your pup can count on!

I have known Alison since her birth. She is absolutely wonderful with animals. She has had dogs since she was three. She is really responsible and takes her current dog for walks, checks his medication and makes sure he is okay at all times. I have also seen her interact with other people's dogs and she is appropriate, loving and terrific with them. She has taken care of our cats, and they really love her. I would recommend her as a dog walker/sitter without hesitation.
