Information Alison V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about any behavior issues that your dog may have, medical concerns, allergies, sleeping arrangements, or anything unique to your dog.

A typical day

The dogs usually hang out with me and my dogs when they first arrive. We have a bathroom break upon arrival. When everyone is here we go outside and play with toys and run around. if it is very hot/cold, I limit time to 15 mins at a time. After they are tired we come in for quiet time. Most of them just pick a bed or lay on the rug and play toys.

Loving Dog Care Provider

Pet care experience

I have been doing in home doggy daycare and dog boarding for the past 7 years. I treat all dogs in my home like my own pets. I try to accommodate needs to the best of my abilities; if your dog isn't crated, then I don't crate them, if your dog needs their supper cooked, I cook. I allow the dogs to play together, supervised. I have a fully fenced in yard for the dogs to play in. I have always trained my own dogs, I am not a licensed trainer, but am filled with tons of knowledge and am able to help out whenever I can. I am trustworthy and am willing to feed and care for pets in your home that are unable to be leave the house (fish, cats, etc...) I have many references who will say that I have entered their home to care for their pets and held a key with no problems. I will feed and care for cats, but due to allergies I can't have them in my home. I am a foster mom for a rescue and have lots of experience in caring for pets recovering from surgery or in need of medical attention. I know how to administer medications, clean wounds, monitor symptoms, apply drops, and general cone and stitches care. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! Alison V.

Thanks so much for taking such great care of Milo this weekend! Alison was awesome. She was accommodating and communicative. She shared information without me even thinking to ask. Loved her home and backyard setup. Safe and responsible. Thanks so much!

Had a great experience. This was our first time leaving our dog. He had a great experience and Alison is very good at what she does. Very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
