Furry friends are my favorite.

Pet care experience

I’ve raised kittens, senior kitties, and every age of cat in-between. I love all the four-legged friends- in addition to my penchant for cats, I have taken care of dogs, sheep, goats, and horses. I have a calm alpha vibe that animals respond well to. I’m a talented photographer and will take lots of photos of your furry, scaly, and feathery friends to ease your mind when you can’t be with them yourself.

Allison maintained good communication before and during her house sitting stay. We found her trustworthy and reliable and came home to a happy pup. Would recommend her for pet care.

Allison was able to come to our house on fairly short notice to take care of our dog River. She was communicative and provided me with pictures of River. I would and plan to definitely book Allison again!

Thank you for your ongoing flexibility and excellent communication! It makes the whole process less stressful for me and the dogs. Hopefully Max and Bentley will see you again soon.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my clients’ pets as though they were my own. I take the time to get to know them and how they like to play and interact with new people. I love pets who are energetic, but I also vibe with pets who are chill- like people, animals all have distinct personalities, and I treat them accordingly. Some animals need space, some need lots of attention- it’s been my experience that animals are generally quite good at communicating their needs and wants- it’s my job to listen to them.

Information Allison D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, triggers, or fears- I like to plan ahead with their needs in mind. It’s always helpful to know what common scenarios and objects we’re likely to encounter that could potentially be overstimulating for your canine friend.

A typical day

I love dogs but can’t have my own in my current space, so I love to live vicariously through yours! I love to hike and run around outside, check out new parks and trails, and enjoy all the natural beauty Vermont has to offer.
