My schedule is open and booked first come first served. My long term plans are to start school again in the spring to further my education and professionalism working with animals, but until then pet sitting is my first priority.

About Allison L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Working with horses, I’ve developed a patient and calm disposition towards aggressive or scared behaviors. I try not to overwhelm any animal, and allow them to grow accustomed to my presence before I take part in whatever needs to be done. Meeting with said pets for the first time is a bit tricky, but I make it a habit for the first meeting to be with owners before services are rendered so both the client and myself are sure the animal(s) will be ok.
Information Allison L. would like to know about your pet
I need to know how they how they react with strangers. If you’re not sure how they’ll react or you know they won’t like a stranger in their home it might be best to meet them while the parent/owner is present so I’m not completely a stranger when it’s just myself.
A typical day
I spend my mornings with extra snuggles before breakfast then give them a little time to digest before activities begin. Depending on the energy of the animal, I either play with them or I play the tv/spotify so that they have something that will entertain them. Just being around the animal and loving on them is a big part of taking care of them as their parent is away.

Pet care experience
If I were to be asked my superpower of choice, I’d tell you I already have one. Never in my 23 years of life have a met an animal I couldn’t work with, including the mean old cat my mother inherited. I take pride in my work of taking care of animals, and find it equally as rewarding seeing pet parents not have to worry about their babies in my care. From juggling my own zoo at home, to being introduced into the Pet Care business as a teenager working at an equestrian barn, I have honed my skills at prioritizing the wellbeing of animals and their happiness. With a bleeding heart and nerves of steel, I will love your pets as much as you do. I will clean their messed with understanding, play with them to enrich their brains, note any worrying conditions or details to you with urgency, and overall be the sitter you’d wish to hired again and again.

Reviews
Allison checked in on my two cats while I was abroad and she was amazing! They warmed up to her so quickly and she took great care of them. I would definitely trust her to watch my pets again.
Allison was timely, sent pictures and kept me updated on our fur babies! She was attentive and did an excellent job! Will book her again, and highly recommend her!
Allison has been a loving, caring, & responsible pet owner since she was a child. She has cared for horses, dogs, and cats very well. She has rescued and found homes for cats. Allison is a natural pet whisperer. animals are drawn to her. I have seen her care for animals the past 13 years. You can trust that Allison will treat your loving pet as if it were her own.
Allison has lived with & cared for cats & dogs her entire life. She began riding horses When she was 6 years old and has a horse named Birdie whom she loves very much. Allison understands animals and their needs both emotionally and physically. She is fun and loving when she has taken care of my pets. Allison notifies me right away if she observes something may be off with my dogs and cats, and I appreciate knowing she is observant and communicates well which means everything to a pet owner.
