Pet care experience
Growing up, I was always surrounded by pugs. I was the PetFinder expert that landed us with 5 pugs (yes, 5 at the same time!). We raised them from puppies into their senior years. Pugs are a delicate breed, so I know the importance of listening to your animal’s needs and ensuring they are being taken care of properly. Since living the DC apartment life, I’ve been lacking that companionship that only a pet can provide. Being able to take care of your pets while you’re away is a win-win-win (for you, me, and your pets!).
Reviews
As always, Allison took fantastic care of our dog and providing us photos and updates. Highly recommend!
Wonderful! My dog had so much fun with Allison and it was great to get away and not worry!
Allison is so sweet and patient with our spunky cat!
My third or fourth time using Allison’s help and she was better than ever! My cat loves her so much and clearly so comfortable and happy with her around. Really communicative and reliable — I’m so grateful!
About Allison M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My goal is always to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible when you can’t be there. As many pets are routine driven, I appreciate explicit instructions or routine guidelines to help them stay on track and minimize their anxiety. Of course, bonding with your pet is also one of my favorite aspects of making them comfortable!
Information Allison M. would like to know about your pet
Since having 5 pugs with all very different personalities and needs, I totally understand that every animal is different! Please let me know your pet’s preferences and/or expectations so I can provide the best experience.
A typical day
From long walks to belly scratches and cuddles, your pet is the priority. Of course, being mindful of the DC weather and hot summers, I may opt for some more indoor playtime to keep them safe from burnt paws or overheating!
