Your pups are in good hands :)

Pet care experience

I love dogs and have spent the past year training my Belgian malinois under the guidance of a professional trainer. My malinois, Hilo, tragically passed away very unexpectedly and I am now hoping to fill my days loving other dogs. I will ensure your dogs needs are fulfilled and that they get both mental and physical stimulation during their stay! I am home full time and can monitor their care 24/7. Our home has a fully fenced yard with a wooden fence. I can reliably care for dogs of all temperaments and energy types. I am comfortable and confident engaging with dogs with reactivity in a way that keeps both of us feeling safe. I particularly love high energy/high drive breeds but I am happy to house all breeds and temperaments. I can handle complex feeding schedules and instructions, administer medication, and even keep up any training or skills that are preferred that the dog practices. I am reliable and trustworthy. I love sending pictures of what the babies are up to and updating the parents while they’re separated from their loved ones. We will have the safest, most fun time together. Thank you for trusting me with your babies!

Allison was the best Rover I could ever imagine having!!! She was so sweet and caring with my little Bogie. She sent so many incredible updates and photos throughout the time I boarded with her. She was attentive and went above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable, stimulated and happy during their time together. She has a great yard that my pup loved. She took great care to pay attention to notes and tips I had left in the information left regarding Bogie. I just wish Allison lived closer to me because I would be using her whenever I needed!!!

MJ had the absolute best time of her life at Ali’s! We will be booking her for all our future travels. Great yard for your pup to run around in and especially great set up if you have a dog who needs to be on their own and not with other pups.

Ally was great! She gave me very frequent updates which I very much appreciated and always had my pups health and well being in mind! Will definitely book again next time I go out of town!

Information Allison G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that might need some extra attention! I am comfortable with insecure, nervous, or otherwise reactive dogs, so I don’t mind spending some extra time making sure a dog is comfortable with me in their space. I have trained dogs through toy and food aggression, as well as aggressive territorial behaviors. I would also love to know if they need any medications or supplements! I would love to know if they are fine meeting other dogs while we’re out or if they would be more comfortable not interacting with other dogs or strangers. Last, I would love to know their routine for when I arrive/leave! If they need to be kenneled/if they prefer a certain route for walks/if they need a minute when I arrive before we interact. Whatever I can do to increase safe and confident feelings - my heart is that dogs feel safe with me. I can work with any and all behaviors! It’s no problem at all.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs mentally and physically. We will play games, maybe do some easy training exercises, and sniff all the things outside! We can go to the beach, to a local park, or just stroll around the neighborhood.

I am a full time student! So I am able to take a break from my online classes whenever a dog needs me. I can make room in my schedule for all the babies!
