Pet care experience
Hey there! I know life can get ruff and everyone needs a helping hand from time to time. There's nothing better than knowing you can leave your babies, and sometimes your homes, in the hands of someone who is responsible. Well I wholeheartedly believe that I'm that person for you. My name is Allison and I'm a college student working towards a BS in Geography with a minor in Biology. I have grown up with all sorts of animals! I have family on farms, suburban areas, and I even lived on a boat, surrounded with animals in each environment. I currently have a wonderful, extremely pet-friendly apartment where I live with my roommate and three dogs. I have an adult Tea Cup poodle named Chewy, and two six month old puppies, named Bluebelle and Oakley, that are basically Supermutts! (They've been DNA tested by Embark as Pitt, Boxer, Chow Chow, German Sheppard, Australian Cattle Dog, Koolie, Rottweiler and trace breeds. Which I think is super cool!) I love the outdoors, and with so many dogs in one apartment, I take them out to the dog park every single day. Its the best way for them to get out all of their young energy and socialize with other dogs, and people, while giving me the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors during my regular schedule. When I'm not in school or working, I love to travel with my dogs. This summer I'll be passing though the 7th National Park with my dogs and I'm very excited. As for my qualifications, I have many experiences pet/house sitting small dogs, big dogs, cats, rabbits, most animals in the rodent family (including chinchillas, hedge hogs, and ferrets), and pot-bellied pigs. However, I have little to none experience with horses, birds, and most reptiles. I can follow directions though! I have this very convenient trait where I absolutely love taking notes, organizing schedules, color coating documents, and making lists. I'm always in the know when it comes to planning and I can follow the most complicated of household schedules. Feeding, walking, bathing...honestly? You name it. If you need someone to lend a helping paw, then I'm definitely your gal!
Reviews
I appreciated that she was willing to communicate with me a lot. I wish she had initiated more and given better updates about my dog. I don’t think she walked her as frequently as I do, but it was cold out. I didn’t appreciate the fact that she had her boyfriend stay the night at my house without asking for my permission first. She also left the stove top somewhat of a greasy mess. Also, spilled oil in the oven and left a pretty big mess. I just don’t think I clarified what I needed from her, or I need a more professional sitter.
Loved having Allison house sit and Dog sit our fur babies!! She stayed in touch with us, sent pictures of the boys and took great care of our home. I would highly recommend her!!
Allison was fantastic with our dogs! She provided great updates,
So far 12/26 or 27 to 12/30. Haven’t planned another trip before that but will. We can make it around your schedule.

Information Allison C. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know the breed , updated medical history including recent vaccinations, and any quirky traits I should look out for. Maybe his/her favorite toy, the right spot on the belly to scratch, and any tricks that they know? Everything that'll prevent any negative occurrences and anything that'll spark happy ones!
A typical day
If the owners are okay with the following, then your dogs can expect long walks, fun dog park meet ups and easy going car rides. I could even take him/her with me when I run my errands to dog friendly locations if they shouldn't be home alone. My part time job is actually dog friendly, and I can even take them with me if they have good behavior in public settings. Please reach out with further inquires!
