I’m unemployed but I take care of my disabled mom. Because of this I have a very flexible schedule. I have always loved dogs and miss having one of my own. I’m always excited to spend time with my friend’s dogs.

I don’t plan on boarding any dogs at my own home. With how my mom’s health is now it wouldn’t be a good idea to do so.

All dogs are wonderful!

Pet care experience

I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I had two labs growing up and another lab in my early twenties who I still grieve for today. I currently have no dogs of my own so I pour all my love into my friend’s dogs. The dog I had my twenties had behavioral issues and required patience and understanding in a short amount of time he went from being withdrawn and antisocial to a complete love bug!

We booked Allegra for a house sitting service and dog walking service. She was absolutely wonderful! She took fantastic care of our little diva, Francie, and was incredibly responsible and self-sufficient throughout her stay. She left our home immaculate. Honestly, it was like she was never even there! We would definitely hire her again for future house sitting.

Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!

Thoughtful, dependable care for your dogs and home Allegra has loved and cared for dogs since she was very young, and she connects with them very naturally. She is thoughtful, kind, dependable, and wonderfully attentive to the needs of animals. Dogs tend to respond well to her gentle nature. Allegra has an intuitive sense of dogs’ cues and body language and adjusts her approach to each dog’s temperament. For example, when she walked an older dog in our neighborhood, she paid close attention to his stamina and brought him home whenever he seemed to tire earlier than usual. His owners were very grateful that she always put his health, comfort, and well-being first. She has a patient, soothing, and consistent presence that helps dogs feel safe with her. Allegra is conscientious and responsible. When she accepts a commitment, she follows through faithfully. She takes time to understand and honor each pet parent’s preferences, and she gladly sends updates and photos as owners desire. She treats each client’s home with care and respect and notices practical details such as wiping muddy paws, making sure dogs have fresh water when appropriate, and watching carefully over their comfort and safety. Most of all, Allegra will show your dog love and bring a steady, calm, and protective presence to every dog in her care.
