As obsessed w/ your pet as you are!
Pet care experience
I've been an animal lover my whole life, growing up with a Golden Retriever and fostering 10 rescue cats over the past 10 years. I've happily sat dogs, cats, fish, and the occasional parakeet for clients in the US and China, and can handle pets of any maturity and size. I've house sat for 3 weeks before, and at one point sat a large mixed group of 12 rescue dogs + cats for 1 client! I truly believe that pets make us better people. They encourage routine and responsibility, as well as patience, forgiveness, and an active lifestyle. I feel that the love and care that you give to a four-legged family member comes back to you tenfold. If I have the opportunity to work with you, you can expect someone with experience who is calm, patient, kind, and firm at the same time. I will be diligent about following any routines or training you use, and will confirm all types of treats with you beforehand. Your fur baby will have my full attention -- whether the task at hand is walking, playing, feeding, medicating, or just plain snuggles. Trust me when I say that I will be as obsessed with your pet as you are! With me you can expect: WALKS + DROP-INS: · regular text and photo updates · medication, food and/or water refills, as necessary · doggy bags + treats HOMESTAYS: · introductory meet + greet with you + your pet(s) · daily photo updates · customizable walk schedule · regular potty breaks and/or litter box care · doggy bags + treats · TONS of snuggles, love, and attention · house monitoring: plant watering, mail/package collection, security lights DOGGY DAY CARE: *** only available in the owner's home -- contact me directly for requests *** · introductory meet + greet with you + your pet(s) · AM/PM photo updates · regular potty breaks and/or litter box care · doggy bags + treats · TONS of snuggles, love, and attention
Reviews
Showed our puppy lots of love while house sitting her first vacation away from us. Sent us pics of how much fun she was having. Thank you, Alison!
Alison went above an beyond dropping in to check on our cat. We will definitely book her again!
Alison just watched my cat Louise for me while I was away for a long weekend. She was great! Sent me great photos and updates while I was gone. I know Louise was in loving hands. I will definitely use her again.
This is the third time Alison has watched Pixel & Barkley, so I wanted to post a follow-up review to verify the consistency and quality if Alison's pup-sitting. I'm thrilled to have a dog sitter that's dependable and communicative!

Skills
Information Alison Y. would like to know about your pet
For me, there is no such thing as too much info! Let me know all about your dog, such as: · your typical routine: meals, walks, potty breaks, favorite treats · your typical walk route(s) and potty spots · triggers, allergies, health concerns, and / or behavioral quirks · level of interaction with other people + dogs Also, I'm happy to sit all breeds, from dachshunds to danes -- and everything in between!
A typical day
Let me know what activities your dog LOVES to do. Is he a fetch addict? Does she love ice cubes? The more I know in advance, the better I can schedule our time together. Typically I'll just bring your dog out to the nearest park where we can romp together until the sun goes down.
