Peace, Love, and Belly Rubs

Pet care experience

I am currently in school for my Master's degree in speech-language pathology, but I have always had a huge passion for dogs! I have previous experience in dog daycare and boarding services. I have also worked with dogs that have special needs and different medical conditions, and can administer medication to your pet if necessary. I am also the proud dog mom of a crazy Maltese named Fig, who would love to make friends with your pets! I would love to have another dog in the house in the future, but for now I am more than happy to watch your fur babies while you're away. My mission is to ensure the safety of your pets, all while keeping them entertained and comfortable. My hours are based on my availability outside of my studies - please keep in mind when booking with me!

Alissa was very nice and watched my dog at the last minute. I would highly recommend her.

Alissa is absolutely fantastic!! One of the better if not the best sitter I've come across. She was very polite and patient with my dog Nahla, a labradoodle that thinks she's a puppy inside, to the point where Nahla has formed quite an attachment to her! I've been trying to find as good of a sitter as Alissa for the longest time because I felt as though that I haven't been giving Nahla as much of attention that she needed, and finding Alissa was probably the best decision for Nahla and I! Alissa always kept me up to date whether it be walks, medicine, and even treats to let me know how Nahla was doing when I was away; and yes, i am that overprotective dog mom. She's definitely active enough for Nahla, and constantly does more than needed to make Nahla happy. I would most definitely recommend her :))

Alissa is fantastic with pets and has dog sat for my German Shepherd Ruby. She is caring and willing to go the extra mile in caring for pets and Ruby loves playing with her. She gives me updates on her and lets me know if anything comes up.
