Information Alison S. would like to know about your pet

I have taken care of senior and special needs animals without any problems, but I do prefer to be notified of anything that might come up :)

A typical day

I absolutely love spending time with the pets, and physical activity for them is physical activity for me, too. With dogs I love to teach tricks, play games, go on walks or runs depending on their energy level, and see what they like to do and cater to that.

Big fan of any and all pets <3

Pet care experience

I have provided care to senior cats since I was in high school, and the owners invited me back for years to feed them, clean up after them, and give them medicine. I have also owned pets since I was a child and am no stranger to messes or overly energetic pets. I trained my own dog when she was a puppy and was the most successful in getting her to learn basic commands and simple tricks. I have also taken care of plants and general house maintenance.

This was the second time Alison took care of Ziggy. She was wonderful and accepted a last minute request. Ziggy always loves seeing her.

Alison was great with my cat! She followed all my instructions for feeding, cleaning, and playtime, and I loved getting the photo updates while I was away. Really appreciate the help—thanks again!

Alison took great care of our cat and accommodated all his needs. She understood all his requirements and provided a comfortable environment. She was able to board as well as cat sit at our home. She took care of our house during house sitting and left it in excellent condition.
