Safety, trust & environment

I care for every animal that I’ve ever met with the same amount of love and respect. All creatures are equal in my eyes so I always try to imagine life from their perspective. I treat and care for them how I would want to be treated and cared for. Since I have a dog of my own, I unfortunately can not offer stays at my home but I am more than willing to care for and/or walk your pets in your home and neighborhood. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Information Allison C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs that I should be prepared for. I have plenty of experience with pets who have specific requirements so feel free to reach out to discuss care preferences!

A typical day

When I watch your pets I will take them on walks to any of their favorite spots, I will make sure to play indoors or outdoors with them as much and as often as they need and I will give them the love and attention that they deserve and require.

Animals make life worth living

Pet care experience

From the day I was born, I have had a passion for animal care that has connected to me a variety of creatures, big and small. I’ve had pets at every age of my life and every pet has changed me for the better and kept a special place in my heart. From dogs to cats to amphibians to reptiles to fish to rodents, I’ve cared for all types of critters and they are all just as important to me as the next one. I currently have a pitbull mix, a cat, and a leopard gecko so I am no stranger to caring for multiple animals at once. I have also spent a summer working in a veterinary office as a vet assistant so I am more than comfortable with caring for animals with special needs and cleaning up after them, if need be. I promise to look after your family as if they were my family.

Allison was wonderful with my two cats as a pet sitter. One of my cats had some accidents and she cleaned it all up without any hesitation. She followed all directions perfectly and I will 100% rebook her!!!
