Safety, trust & environment

I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. Through my experience in animal care and at a Fear Free certified veterinary practice, I’ve learned how to read body language and recognize when a pet may be feeling stressed or uncomfortable. I always follow instructions closely and take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable in my care. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Allison, and I’m a rising junior at Cornell University studying Animal Science on the Pre-Veterinary track. My experience includes volunteering at a therapeutic riding center, working with farm animals, and spending time at a Fear Free certified veterinary practice. Through those experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal body language and help pets feel more comfortable in unfamiliar situations. I have a dog of my own, Percy, so I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pet with someone else. I enjoy getting to know each pet and figuring out what helps them feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure you receive updates while you’re away!

Allison dog sit on and off for me for some time now, and I can genuinely recommend her without hesitation. She is very attentive to Healthy! Also, she is consistently reliable and punctual. Allison keeps me informed throughout each walk and is always easy to reach.

Allison is a very reliable and caring doggie person! Luna loves taking strolls around the neighborhood with her and always comes back happy and slightly tired after her workout. I would highly recommend Allison for anybody looking for a caring and responsible dog walker!
