I work remote from home so my schedule is pretty flexible! I may have meetings during the week that I can't move, but if time off day for drop-ins or walks is flexible on your side, I can find a time that works.

Safety, trust & environment

I'd prefer to always do a meet and greet first to know where everything is if I need it -- from leashes and toys to cleaning supplies and emergency contact and vet numbers.

Information Allegra S. would like to know about your pet

—What is your dog or cat's energy level? How do they react to strangers? —Are there any dietary restrictions or concerns I should know about? —Are there any behaviors I should be on the lookout for? Vet, emergency contact information.

A typical day

—Have lots of experience dealing with anxious, reactive, and shy pups. I won’t push your dog to do anything they don’t feel comfortable doing, and will make sure they are and feel safe —Games! If your pup (or cat!) is treat or play motivated, playing fun brain teaser games and training tricks will tire them out

Dog and cat owner and lover!

Pet care experience

I have dogs and cats, and experience with all types from high energy to seniors! My sweet Australian cattle dog was reactive and high-energy, so I am familiar with training and walking those types of smart dogs. I also have a soft spot for seniors who want to move at their own pace and just want love and attention. I want to help make your life easier and make sure your pets are happy while you're away, I know how much that peace of mind matters when you're away from your babies!

Allegra was a wonderful drop-in sitter for our kitty! She took great care to follow all instructions and took time to play with and cuddle with our cat while we were away. Would happily hire her again!

Fantastic and consistent. My dog was so excited for his morning and afternoon fun with Allegra. I will book again and will consider boarding options.

Lots of great pics/videos during a great stay! Loved that she had some cool puzzle toys and doggie fun things for my pup to try out.
