Loving & safe home for dogs & cats
Pet care experience
I offer any service you can imagine short of actually adopting a pet! My apartment is right on the boardwalk for long walks on the beach and even a park for play! As a former athlete and self proclaimed “adventurer” I have a deep desire to share my love of the outdoors with animals. I grew up with dogs throughout my entire childhood and now currently have a beautiful 2 year old boxer and 6 year old cat that I love and adore. I have a ton of experience with pets or all shapes and sizes as a result and am definitely capable of handling them. I have a real soft spot for high-energy dog breeds and love to incorporate training and positive reinforcement structure with all the pups I walk with. Additionally, I volunteer at different small dog and large dog shelters over the weekends and as a result am an incredibly competent at handling challenging dogs as well as making dogs feel safe during their darkest moments. I want more than anything to share my life with animals, I can guarantee that your furry friend will be treated like my very own for the time we share together. If your pet is on the more social side, they have the opportunity to spend time with my dog or cat while inside, and for the dogs who prefer to socialize outside, I have an endless amount of energy and can’t wait to run with them so that we can tire each other out. I can’t wait to find new hiking trails together and make your pet feel as special as possible for the time we share together!
Reviews
Alli is the most incredible dog walker I have ever had. She takes it upon herself to assist in training and it is so evident she is called to be with and around animals. I am so thankful we have her to take our dog for walks and assist us in training. Would recommend her to anyone who may be looking for their “right fit”!
About Alli V.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I offer a safe, loving, and attentive environment to any animal staying with me. I have experience with dogs and cats and therefore know how to provide for all of their needs. I can additionally administer any necessary medication and provide any additional care needed. For my own pets I provide enrichment activities daily such as frozen Kongs, enrichment puzzles, and scavenger hunts and I would love to be able to provide the same for the pets in my care.
Information Alli V. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, reactivity, or training practices like loose leash walking or focused heeling that you are working on beforehand as I would love to be able to accommodate that as much as possible!
A typical day
I love taking dogs on walks around the board walk as well as to the private dog beach by my house! A typical walk with me includes lots of positive reinforcement, treats (if approved), sniff breaks, and exploring! As the owner of a high-energy dog I know how important walk time is and know how to handle all challenges including fear or reactivity that may come with walks.
