Work early, play later.

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my entire life. I enjoy training them, walking them, and just sitting around on the couch with them. We live in town with tons of available walking and hiking areas. Plenty of room in the house to play. Smaller, fenced yard with plenty of toys to play with. Fairly low-key couple. I work a few hours in the early morning (4-9am) and my husband works full time outside the home. The longest the dogs would go without a person being home would be 3 hours max. I would much rather be home than out with people anyways. For the most part, I am available pretty much any time. Holidays would need to be booked in advance because we do occasionally travel. I am skilled in working with all sizes of dogs, from tiny terriers to Rottweiler and Mastiff sized dogs. I am willing to put in the extra time and commitment to make sure every dog has as good of a stay as possible.

Allison was very accommodating and kept us informed throughout out the stay about how our puppy was doing (photos, messages, etc). Her hours were very flexible and you can tell she cares for your fur baby like she does her own. Highly recommend!!

Percy had a great stay with Allison and Izzy. We all met before the event to get acquainted and when we dropped Percy off he immediately felt welcome in his new place. Allison kept us up to date with Percy's doings with pictures and was flexible with the pickup time. We would happily use Allison's services again. Thanks Allison.

Allison took great care of our dog. Our dog had to take a few medications and everything is handled perfectly Thank you

Allison has watched my young husky. I know that’s no easy task, my girl is wild. One thing that I appreciate about her style is that she expects respect from dogs. Her dog is a great listener. I would definitely recommend Allison.

Information Allison B. would like to know about your pet

Please note, dogs MUST BE housebroken. Are they vaccinated? Leash or crate trained? Any reactivity towards different genders of people/dogs? Special dietary needs that we'd need to be mindful of with treats? Good with kids is also a must.

A typical day

All the walks! Indoor playtime, outdoor playtime, playtime with neighbors and their dogs. Snuggling on the couch watching Netflix. Good smells that I bring home with me from work. Occasional dogpark outings on weekends with my personal dog. Training and learning about manners. Did I mention playtime..?
