Safety, trust & environment

My home is suitable for cats, but for dogs I would be happy to visit your home to keep your fur baby company. I am able to take pups on long walks, and am happy to stay overnight so that your fur baby is not left alone.

Information Alissa D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any considerations or medical needs. If booking house sitting, I will often pop out for an hour or two to run errands during the day. If you need 24/7 care please let me know ahead of time.

A typical day

I love to take active pups on walks, and am also happy to hang around and snuggle with your pets. I can help train your pets if you have specific commands or anything you are working on, just let me know! I like to play with your pets and tire them out so that they are less likely to be anxious when you are gone.

Pets

Experienced pet-sitter!

Pet care experience

I have cared for all sorts of pets, including multi-pet homes. Cats, dogs, birds, small animals - I love them all. I have experience with special needs pets, senior pets, and have experience administering medication to pets. I have looked after pets and their homes for short and long periods, and am a pet owner myself so I know how important it is to have ease of mind when you're away from your pets. If you are new to Rover, I am happy to walk you through how it works!

Alissa did a great job. All the animals were well taken care of and happy when we got home. House was all in order. Appreciate someone we can trust and count on.

Alissa was great. She arrived promptly when she said she would, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout her stay. My kids especially enjoyed the pictures she sent. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
