Highlights
Pet care experience
Affordable & flexible pet care!
I have taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I was 12 years old! I've had pets of all kinds for the past 10 years and I have also been hired to pet-sit for family, friends, and neighbors throughout middle school, high school and college! Additionally, my father owned a small dog walking business in our town while I was growing up, so I have lots of experience with walking all kinds of dogs. I am familiar with how to walk with and take care of dogs of all sizes from chihuahuas to great Danes! And I have experience working with varying ages, from puppies to older doggos who need additional care such as medication administration or walking accommodations. In addition to growing up with dogs, I've also had and taken care of cats, reptiles (lizards and turtles), rodents (hamsters, guinea pigs, rats & rabbits), and fish which gives me a wide range of drop-in visit expertise! I am familiar with how to clean liter boxes or small animal enclosures/cages, cleaning water fountains and food bowls, serving food and treats, administering medications, playing with your pet or using other forms of enrichment, etc. I am looking forward to working with you and your pet(s)!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs, cats or small animals. To ensure your pet gets the best from me, I make sure that I have detailed instructions about what your pet needs from my visit and/or walk. This includes having conversations about things like how much to feed them and when, litterbox changing specifics, changing your pets water, keeping your pets areas clean, any medication instructions you have for me, where you want me to walk your dog, expectations for waste disposal, or any other specific details I need from you in order to take care of your pet!
Ratings and reviews
Alissa was beyond wonderful. She took care of my cat for 10 days in a row and consistently sent detailed and thorough notes the entire time! She even noticed a little any issue in my apartment while I was away, and instead of shying away from it, she took care of them everyday - going wayyyy above and beyond what she signed up for. Additionally, my cat requires daily meds, and Alissa happily learned how to administer them and let me know how it went every day. I 10000% trust her with my cat care and will be asking her to watch my cat again in the future!!
Alissa was great! She sent great pics, kept me in the loop on how my kitty was doing, and asked questions when she needed to. Will definitely rebook!
Alissa was wonderful as always! I’ve booked with Alissa a few times now, and she goes above and beyond with all the pictures she sends and very detailed updates after each visit. She’s helped clean up after accidents and keep my cats from getting into any mischief.
Alissa was very communicative, sent great pictures, and took wonderful care of Benny!
Alissa was very helpful and caring for our cat when we were gone. Will definitely rebook with her if needed.
Alissa was very responsive and my cat loved playing with her! She sends plenty of pictures and updates
