🐈 Passionate Pet Parent 🦮

Pet care experience

With over a decade of trusted pet care experience, I've become the go-to person for friends and family seeking the best care for their cherished pets. Dogs, cats, bunnies, and more - I've had the pleasure of caring for them all! Personally owning a delightful chocolate lab and a bunny has given me firsthand insight into the unique needs and joys of our furry companions. As your dedicated pet walker and sitter, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a genuine passion for ensuring your pets feel not only well-cared-for but also genuinely loved. Additionally, I have experience working with special needs pets. I volunteer for Beagle Paws, an organization that rescues Beagles from abusive environments. They tend to be full of energy during our walks, however I am very patient and able to adapt to their specific needs. Rest easy knowing your beloved pets are in capable and compassionate hands. Let's create a stress-free, tail-wagging, and purr-filled experience for your furry friends!

Allison is such a sweet and great sitter. She took good care of my cat Boots and sent me happy pictures of him. Would definitely recommend her!

Allison was awesome with my dog, Decker. She was a great communicator, sent lots of pictures. We would absolutely have her watch him again.

Such a sweet and caring sitter! She took excellent care of my dog and cat while I was out of town. They were both so happy when I came to pick them up! Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!

Allison is one of the sweetest and most nurturing people I know, and her love of animals has always been palpable. She is gentle, caring, responsible, and naturally gets along well with pets. When she's taking care of my dog Charlie, I feel stress-free knowing my little guy is in such great hands!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I prioritize clear communication with pet owners, actively listening to their instructions and concerns to provide personalized and attentive care. I take time in forming a bond with your pet, earning their trust so they feel comfortable and loved. I meticulously follow feeding schedules, medication routines, and exercise regimens as directed by the owners, ensuring consistency and reliability in their care. Creating a secure environment is crucial, including removing potential hazards and ensuring a comfortable living space. Regular updates, including photos and messages, keep owners informed and reassured about their pets' well-being. In case of emergencies, I am prepared with contact information for veterinarians and clear protocols for prompt action. My professionalism and dedication ensure that pets under my care feel safe, loved, and content throughout their time with me.

Information Allison J. would like to know about your pet

Prior to meeting, I would love to know about your pet’s temperament and specific needs. I would also like to discuss any behavioural issues such as sensitivities to other dogs, people or environments.

A typical day

My care for your pet will be tailored to their needs, energy levels, and preferences. I’m pretty flexible; I am able to take them for a jog, to the dog park, or on a nature walk. Let me know your pet's favorite activities, and I'll ensure they happen.

My availability is very open this summer as I’m working a remote job and taking online courses at DAL. That being said, I will be spending most of my time home, which allows me to interact and provide care for your pet most of the day!
