I work from home Monday-Friday and am in the office approximately one day per week. Upon messaging, I will be upfront regarding my schedule and am thrilled to offer pet sitting when our schedules line up! 🏠 Overnight stays- offered on an ongoing basis. If I am working the days of the booking, I will communicate to ensure that your furry friend is able to be left alone during that time. 🐾 Drop-ins - offered on an ongoing basis, but during days where I am at work, I may be unable to do multiple drop-ins/walks per day. Reach out and we can discuss scheduling!

Safety, trust & environment

Soft care involves prioritizing your pets comfortability. This means allowing them to set the pace, while still ensuring we remain on schedule and follow care instructions. With experience caring for a senior dog, I understand the importance of soft care in ensuring that pets are comfortable from feeding time to walks.

Information Alissa N. would like to know about your pet

We can discuss this during a 30 minute meet and greet with you and your pet! Things like behavioural quirks and special needs are important to share prior to booking.

A typical day

What to expect: ✍️ Daily updates through Rover detailing what we did, your pets behaviour and any concerns I may have. ❤️ I pride myself on sending multiple photos with each update, whether it’s an overnight stay, drop-in or walk, I’ll take the time to ensure you get some good shots of your pet! ⭐️ A tidy space - I will leave your home just as you left it, or cleaner! I always tidy up after bookings, and if it is an overnight stay I’ll vacuum before leaving.

Alissa was wonderful! This was our first time having someone come into our home to stay with our pets, and Alissa put us right at ease. Not only was she incredibly communicative, sending multiple updates throughout the day, but she left the house SPOTLESS! Thank you so much for all of your help and love toward our babies, Alissa! We are looking forward to your future visits! Newman, especially, is looking forward to more endless cuddles.

Alissa was AMAZING. She truly went above and beyond for my dog Lady. Lady fell in love with her over the week-long stay. This was my very first time using a pet sitter who I didn’t already have a personal relationship with, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Alissa. She sent me so many updates and photos. She was so thoughtful and left my home SPOTLESS. Not only was I able to relax on my trip knowing my girl was in safe care, but I came home to a clean house and happy dog (who seriously didn’t want her to leave)! Thank you thank you Alissa! We are already booking our next sitting weekend with her :)
