Adore animals, love being outside.
Pet care experience
I have grown up with cats and dogs as pets, and love all animals. I am a natural care giver and will make sure the dogs are taken care of and enjoy their time! Love to be outside year around, and would love to include dogs into that as well! Totally willing to play games with the dogs and make it fun for them. I am the type to always try and pet dogs I meet in public, so there will be plenty of petting as long as the dog is comfortable. I will always make sure the dogs are conformable in their surroundings. I am comfortable will all ages of dogs as well, if there are medications to take, topical treatments needed etc. I am willing to do that as well!
Reviews
Helped with three pets, including insulin shots for a cat who hides from visitors and oral med for dog. Our pets were happy and we had regular updates.
We love Allison! She is very sweet, friendly and sends regular updates with pics and comments. We hope to have her as our walker/sitter for a very long time!
Allison was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog, Marigold, while we were on vacation out of state. She was willing to come by before the stay so we could show her specific things about Marigold's routine and the house. During her stay, she was very communicative, sending us several pics, video clips or updates each day. Allison also made an effort to work from home when she could, to spend more time with Marigold, or come home for potty breaks/short walks during her lunch time. When we got home, the house was clean and tidy. It was such a relief to know that our beloved doggie companion was in good hands while we were away!
Allison was fantastic while watching our two dogs! Very attentive, great updates and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her! Definitely will be using Allison again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Each rover service is different because each animal has different needs! Therefore I acclimate as close to their schedules as I can so that their daily life changes as little as possible.
Information Allison H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if a dog is anxious or nervous. if they have any dietary restrictions or medications to take. If the dog(s) have likes/dislikes. Feeding schedule. Any allergies. Sleep routine (kennel, bed etc.). Is your pup able to take stairs? My condo building has two half flights to the enterance of my home. I love all dog breeds, no preferences there, all are welcome!
A typical day
I live near many parks (in Edina) and trails near by to explore and get some fresh air. I do not have a fenced in backyard, but am happy to take the pups on walks at least 2x a day, if permissible. A few places we can explore/go on walks: Around the neighborhood Centennial Lakes in Edina Lake of the Isles Lake Harriet Lake Calhoun and more!
Services

Availability
I work full time, but only 5 minutes from home, so I am flexible to check in and go on walks on my lunch breaks, no problem!
