Highlights
Pet care experience
Individualized care for your pets
I live in a single-family home in Bloomington. There are no other pets in the home. I am a non-smoker and love animals. Since the pandemic, my husband works from home full time . We are very experienced in caring for all types of breeds of dogs and ages. I am comfortable administering medications, insulin, and other special needs. I do not have a fenced backyard, but I always accompany the pets when outdoors. I enjoy physical exercise and will walk the dog(s) I care for at least 2x a day, if permissible. I am the main caretaker. My neighbors have dogs and young children, but their home is fenced in. I have a large backyard where pets can play fetch if they enjoy the game. Lots of space to run and play. We have young children (under 5 years old) in our home. We are only willing to accept pets that are open to or friendly with children. We have cared for pets for over a 25 years and the testimonials are only a fraction of the dogs we have cared for and love. We also work with our extended family in the area who can accommodate dogs that are not ok with children. Please reach out if you have questions. We look forward to hearing from you.

Ratings and reviews
Allison took great care of CeCe. We got plenty of pictures and felt like everything went super smooth!
Buddy had a great stay with Allison! I had a sitter no show on drop off day and she came to my rescue. She really went out of her way to help me out during a busy holiday season. During Buddy's stay, I got daily updates and pictures. Allison was attentive to Buddy's needs and made sure to ask plenty of questions to ensure she knew his routine. I would highly recommend having Allison watch your furry friend.
We've worked with Allison twice now and her service is consistent and top notch.
Allison was a wonderful cat sitter. She was punctual every day, kept everything clean and organized and our cats comfortable and well fed. Hire with confidence.
Thank you Allison for taking care of our boys while we were away. It was great to know they were well taken care of and getting daily exercise. We loved the daily updates and pictures! Thank you so much!
Allison is AMAZING!! She was the perfect person to take care of kitties. Every day she sent photos with updates ok how they were doing. She also made sure that our little diabetic kitty received his insulin shot twice a day with no issue. We came home from our trip to very happy kitties ! We knew with Allison that they would be in the best hands!

Schedule
My husband and I are home full time during the week and on weekends we run errands. We care for the dogs with routines they are most accustomed to. There is a nature trail not too far away that I like going on and it takes about 20 minutes for one loop.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Pets thrive on routines. I try and re-create and keep a routine that they are most accustomed to. Feeding times and walks to match what you would do for your own pet. I have family that live near. Your pet will be treated like family and are welcome to visit my family for more human companionship if he/she is accustomed to it. This can mean going on errands, walks, runs etc. activity as tolerated.
A typical day
Places we like to go on walks are: -Around the neighborhood -Bloomington's dog park -Centennial Lake in Edina -Lake Calhoun/Harriet/of the Isles -The local marsh/park nearby We will be spending a lot of quality time together. I enjoy staying active.
