Pet care experience
I have been an animal person all my life but started to have my own pet about 4 years ago and have learned so much in that time. I believe that it is the animals world and we are simply along for the ride. The outdoors are what give dogs happiness and a purpose so I like to let the dog take lead during walks for the most part. They deserve the freedom to safely explore without being tugged along. I also believe in "leave no trace" in all aspects of life, including dog waste and toys. Every animal has such a unique personality and I love getting to know them! With a set of expectations clearly agreed on prior to the service, I will be able to take care of your animal the way you'd do it yourself.
Reviews
Alison
Alison always goes above and beyond. Russell absolutely adores her!
Amazing sitter. Great with communication. Trustworthy, responsible, bonded with our dog incredibly well. Alison stayed at our house with our dog for four days and was wonderfully caring giving our dog lots of walks and backyard playtime. Highly recommend Alison if you are looking for someone to lovingly care for your pets.
Alison always does a great job! Would definitely recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
Every visit for dogs would include a walk, length varies per dog, bathroom breaks at the beginning and end, meals if needed and a fresh bowl of water, and lots of playing. Cat care would include playing, litter changes, water refills, and feedings if needed. My personal animal is on medications so I am also comfortable giving medication, with clear instructions.
Information Alison U. would like to know about your pet
Let me know any tricks you use for more challenging situations if you have any. This could be a spoon of peanut butter for a pill, a specific toy, walking route, special needs, etc.. During the walk, are there any bad habits you are working on correcting?
A typical day
I love going on walks in places that are new and I like the dog taking the lead. Allowing them to sniff their path always makes the walk more enjoyable for the both of us. I love to play fetch, tug-a-war, etc..
