Rescued+adopted cat from Mongollia
Pet care experience
I grew up with a goat, chickens, horses, cats, and dogs. I rescued and adopted my late cat Frapp while serving in Mongolia with the Peace Corps. I brought him home to California. I taught him how to walk on a leash and even brought him to the Russian border. I currently live with a tailless Manx cat. I taught my border collie how to play basketball. I enjoy taking my mom's rescue on walks when I visit. I sat for multi family and single-family pets. I love our earth and want to reduce my carbon footprint and thus use public transit. I will love fur babies and would be happy to care for yours.
Reviews
Allison was so communicative and offered to video chat ahead of time to get all necessary information. She did a great job checking in on my cat and sent photos and videos. I’ll definitely book with Allison again!
Thanks a million Allison, for being such a thoughtful, considerate, reliable, and caring person. I feel so lucky to be able to count on you to take care of my cat! 😊
Allison is an amazing sitter! She is extremely reliable and thorough in her care. She was on time for every check-in, gave detailed updates with multiple pictures, and communicated any issues immediately. Overall, Allison followed instructions perfectly, and went above and beyond for my cat! I feel very secure in leaving my cat in Allison’s care and plan to book her again when needed.
Allison always does a great job taking care of my two cats. She is reliable- she always comes on time, follows instructions, and gives a good update at the end of the visit. She's also lovely and the cats really like her!

Safety, trust & environment
I have background checked and have a clean record. I’ll follow your instructions and ask necessary questions to keep your pet not only safe but happy as well.
Information Allison M. would like to know about your pet
I can put pills into pill pockets or food. I prefer not to administer medication but can in the right situation. I’d request a test run here. I can look out for possible pre existing issues if you tell me how to.
A typical day
I mostly sit for cats. I love playing their favorite games or inventing new ones for us to play? If your cat doesn’t play, or lives pets, I give great strokes or pats based on your fur baby’s preferences. If a pet prefers something else, I’ll do my best to accommodate. I love giving treats and getting to know your pet.

My schedule is currently pretty flexible. While I have preferred times that I like to sit, I can often work around your schedule if needed.
