Safety, trust & environment

I provide drop-in visits and overnight care for cats and dogs (in client homes only). I play with them, feed them, give them fresh water, and clean litter boxes. I observe body language to assess and respect your pet's boundaries. My priority is to ensure your pet is comfortable, respected, and properly cared for.

Information Allison A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has a special diet or any health conditions so that we can make sure I am the right fit for your pet and I can be prepared if we move forward with care.

A typical day

I love playing with cats and dogs using their toys, making sure they are having fun and are stimulated. It makes me happy knowing your pet is having fun. I love taking dogs on long walks to enjoy the fresh air and get some sniffing time in! I may pet, scratch or cuddle your pets if they are displaying affection and are comfortable with me doing so.

Cat care is my specialty!

Pet care experience

I have been a cat mom for 18 years and a dog mom for 5 years. I primarily care for cats, but I do care for dogs on occasion. I am a cat sitter for my friends and family. I have always loved cats and I relate to them so much. I am always excited to meet new kitties. I love making all cats feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. I have a husky who will be 6 in July. So I have experience with dogs who need lots of walks and attention! I love all dogs and want to take care of them as best as possible in whatever way they need. I want them to feel safe, have fun, be comfortable, and mentally stimulated. I have personal experience with Huskies, German Shepards, Labs, French Bull Dogs, Maltese, and American Bull Dogs.

Ally was amazing with both my cats!! I will definitely be using her again. She was punctual and gave me updates during my time away. I could tell both cats loved her!

This was my first time booking with Allison and she was lovely! I have two very shy cats & they warmed up to her very quickly. She was great with communicating updates through the week which I really appreciate. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Allison was great! She sent lots of pictures and clearly took great care of my cat while I was out of town. Would happily rebook with her :)
