Experienced dog and cat sitter!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alissa and I’m a Boston-transplant. I grew up with cats and dogs, and am definitely missing having them in my life at this moment. I would love the chance to provide walks with your dogs, dog-sit and provide them with company while you’re away, and anything else your dogs may need to give you piece of mind while you’re unavailable. I also am available to give your cats that attention you need while you’re gone! I love going on long-walks, spending quality time with, and playing with dogs. I also have grown up with cats all of my life (and have a lovely one named CeCe now) and am experienced in all types of cats from kittens to the ornery! I’m patient, level-headed, and a problem solver when it comes to sticky situations dogs or cats get into, and am respectful and conscious of others spaces when I’m in their homes. I’m excited to get to know you and your dogs or cats! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Alissa is wonderful! I was very anxious leading up to my first trip in a long time, and since bringing covid puppy From day one My pets clearly loved her, and having her house sit

Alissa was great with our Charley while we went out of town. She was easy to communicate with, handled special diet requests easily and sent updates to reassure us they were settling in well. Will definitely have her help out again!

Theres nothing better than coming home after vacation to a happy dog and a clean home. We would be so excited to have Alissa come to watch Melvin again. Thank you so much Alissa, we’re so grateful!

Alissa took great care of my pup. My little pumpkin is a bit shy, but she quickly warmed up to Alissa's sweet and caring disposition. Alissa was responsive whenever I reached out to her. She also took good care of my home. I will definitely book her services again.

Information Alissa W. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know how they get along with other dogs, any mobility and dietary restrictions, and how many walks they need/energy level.

A typical day

I still love exploring Boston, and what better way to do that than taking dogs for work around the city! I would love taking a dog for a walk around Jamaica Pond, along the Emerald Necklace, or through your neighborhood depending on your preferences. If your dog enjoys playing with other dogs I can take them to the Common to play with other dogs or the local dog park. I’m also content playing a good of tug of war, sitting outside on a nice day, or just cuddling.
