Pet care experience

Lifetime Caretaker

I have 30 years experience with puppies through seniors - healthy through special needs. Training for puppies on leash walks through walking seniors in a stroller. My dogs have ranged from disabled chihuahuas, big German shepherds, and lively beagle mixes. I excel at bonding and building trust with pets and look to have a unique connection with each one. For doggy daycare and boarding: Right now, I dont own any dogs. Your dogs would be the only dogs in my home. When there are dogs in my home, my cats are safely locked away in the basement with their food, toys, water, and playhouses. There will be no interaction.

House Sitting • Oct 11, 2026

Ally is an amazing sitter! She communicated thoroughly and often with photos and videos multiple times a day. She’s very knowledgeable about how to manage different breeds of dogs based on activity level and training. Highly highly recommend

Doggy Day Care • Oct 05, 2026

Allison did an amazing job caring for my boy today! She went above and beyond making sure he had his time outside to enjoy. She also provided quality time with him that gave me a sense of ease all day! Not to mention the photo updates that made me feel apart of his day!

Allison M. is the BEST !!! She is a consummate professional and always reliable. She treated my dog and multiple cats with love and care. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person to care for your animals.

Allison was our pet-sitter for our four cats while we were abroad on our honeymoon. She did an amazing job keeping all the routines of each animal intact, keeping up with grooming (3 of the 4 are medium/long haired cats) and providing lots of extra time for play and individual attention. She even slept on the sofa a couple nights so she could snuggle with our Ramsey who was really missing his people, and it cemented a lasting bond between them. In short Allison was responsible, communicative, professional, caring, and affectionate with our pets and I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to have her pet sit for us again.

Allison is a beautiful soul inside and out. Her love of animals is something really special. I trust her wholeheartedly with my cat and dog and know they are loved and safe when I’m gone. She’s also the first person to help a stray in need. She really appreciates the beauty in all animals.

Safety, trust & environment

Caring for your dog: I will only walk on leash - no unleashed care unless within a fully fenced backyard. If you are training your dog, I will be able to continue with training. I am able to administer medication if needed. If your dog has any allergies or requires special food, please be sure to let me know. Happy to perform brushing or baths if needed. Pets, hugs, playtime, or lounging and relaxing - whatever their preference and makes them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. As for caring for your cats, I request a full schedule of their feeding times, and recommendations as to what they enjoy playing with. If they like to be brushed, please note. If they are skittish or love attention from people, please let me know so I can provide them with a level of care that will allow them to feel safe.

Pets

A typical day

I love to get to know your dogs: what makes them happy, so I can provide them with the right type of stimulation and care! I love to go on walks and make an adventure of it. The goal is to provide healthy and safe stimulation for their eyes, ears, and noses! I’m a cuddler by nature but if your dog isn’t - I’ll take my cues from them. Expect gentle chatting and playing. I love to connect with them.
