Pups are cared for like my own❤️

Pet care experience

I will care for your dog as I care for my own. Dogs are family! I’ve been trusted to care for many friends and family’s dogs through out my high school and young adult years. I can’t remember a time growing up when my family didn’t have at least one dog in the household. Stays with me would include walks, tons of playtime, and lots of snuggle time for your pups! I do offer care for cats as well! All animals will be treated like family. I don’t believe in breed restrictions so nobody is left out here! Thank you for your time and consideration!

We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Alissa was incredibly responsive, dependable, and kept us updated throughout our time away, which gave us so much peace of mind. The best part was coming home to happy, relaxed pets who were clearly well cared for. As an added bonus, the house was spotless when we returned. It's obvious she truly cares about both the animals and the homes she looks after. We would absolutely trust her again and recommend her without hesitation!

We so appreciate that our dogs are in such good hands when Alissa comes to stay! Even our anxious rescue girl does well when Alissa is there.

Alissa took amazing care of our home, our two dogs, and our cat while we were away on a family vacation. From the start, she gave us complete peace of mind, and we were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing everything was in great hands. She was attentive, dependable, and clearly cared about our pets as if they were her own. We were especially touched that she took the time to sweep the floors before leaving, since our dogs tend to track in dirt. Coming home to happy pets and a clean house meant so much to us. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did and would absolutely trust her again.

Once again, so thrilled with the care Alissa provided for our two pups so we could feel confident that they were safe and well-loved while we were away. And I think the house was in better shape than when we left! We so appreciate Alissa.
