Compassionate Vet Tech & Cat Mom

Hi! My name is Allison! I’m a veterinary technician with over 8 years of experience in animal welfare, shelter medicine, and rescue care. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, species, breeds and medical needs, including administering medications & supporting senior, anxious, or special needs pets. Whether your pet needs a quick drop in visits or walks, you can trust they’re in experienced and compassionate hands with me. I currently live with my two cats, Chugi and Chibi, who are truly the heart of my world. Animals have always been the center of my life, whether I’m nursing sick pets back to health at work or giving extra snuggles and enrichment during drop in visits, this isn’t just a job to me, it’s what I love to do! Whether you need someone to stop in and check on your pets, give medication, clean litterboxes, play fetch or just make sure your furry family members are safe and happy while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I treat every animal as if they were my own 🥰 Experience: • Medication administration (oral & eye medications, injections, topical medications etc.) • Senior pets • Fearful or shy pets • Reactive dogs • Multi-pet households • Cats • Critters (guinea pigs, bunnies) I’m excited to meet your fur babies! 🐱🐶🐹

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I understand that every pet is different, so I tailor my care to their individual personality and comfort level. Whether your pet loves attention or prefers a slower approach, I’ll make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I keep a close eye on every pet under my care and take extra precautions to ensure they stay safe. From making sure curious puppies don’t get into things they shouldn’t to monitoring for changes in behavior or health, I always strive to provide attentive and responsible care. Living in Arizona, I take heat safety seriously. During hotter months, dog walks must be scheduled during cooler morning and evening hours, and if temperatures are unsafe, I’m happy to provide potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment indoors instead. I also take care to ensure pets remain secure during visits by double checking gates, doors, and leashes. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Allison was amazing! We felt confident leaving our Cane Corso with her after their initial meeting and she went above and beyond. Communication was great, she sent a bunch of photos and videos, and even re-set our WiFi so Ivy had everything she needed. She clearly spent time making sure our girl was played with and happy, and she kept the fish in our koi pond fed as well. Cannot say enough good things and we are very picky when it comes to who watches our dog as she is a large breed and seems to notice when others don’t be comfortable around her. Allison will be our go-to pupsitter next time we book!

Allison has been my go-to pet sitter whenever I need someone to care for my cat and dog while I’m away. Leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, but I never have to worry when they’re with her because I know they’re receiving excellent care. What I appreciate most is that Allison truly loves animals and treats them like family. My cat can be picky about people, but she immediately took to Allison, which says a lot. Allison understands cat behavior and knows how to make even shy or cautious cats feel comfortable. She also does a wonderful job with my dog, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. One thing I especially love is how great Allison is about keeping in touch while I’m away. She regularly sends me updates, photos, and videos of my fur babies, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s clear from the updates that my pets are happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. Being able to see them while I’m gone makes it so much easier to relax and enjoy my trip. She is reliable, responsible, and always pays attention to the little details. Whether it’s following feeding instructions, keeping an eye on health concerns, or simply spending quality time with my pets, she goes above and beyond. I always come home to happy, well-cared-for animals. Knowing Allison’s professional experience working with animals gives me even more confidence in her care. She has extensive knowledge of pet behavior and health and can confidently handle a wide range of situations. I would highly recommend Allison to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. She genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and it shows in everything she does.

I have known Allison for several years and have always been impressed by her dedication to animals. She has extensive hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats and has cared for animals with a wide variety of personalities, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. One thing that stands out about Allison is her genuine love for cats. She has a special connection with them and understands that every cat has its own personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether a cat is social and playful or shy and reserved, she is incredibly patient and knows how to earn their trust while making them feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I’ve seen firsthand how attentive she is to the animals in her care. She notices small changes in behavior, takes medical and dietary needs seriously, and always goes the extra mile to ensure pets are happy and well cared for. Her experience working with animals has given her a strong understanding of their needs, but it’s her compassion that truly sets her apart. Allison is reliable, responsible, and someone I would trust completely with my own pets. Any pet owner looking for a knowledgeable and caring sitter can feel confident knowing their animals are in excellent hands. Cat owners especially will appreciate how much she genuinely loves and understands feline behavior.

I’ve had a huge privilege of seeing Allison’s love for animals every single day, and can honestly say there is nobody I would trust more with my pets. Animals aren’t just a job to her but a part of who she is. I’ve watched her spend countless hours caring for cats and dogs, both professionally and at home. She has experience with everything from energetic, healthy pets to animals with medical or behavioral needs, and special care requirements. One of the things i admire most about Allison is how deeply she cares and how much she connects with animals. She notices the little things that others might miss, pays close attention to an animals comfort and well-being, and always goes the extra mile to make sure they feel loved and safe. She truly treats every pet as if they are her own. Living with Allison has given me a front-row seat to the kind of person she is. She talks about the animals she cares for constantly, celebrates their victories, worries for them when they’re sick, and pours her heart into making their lives better. Her knowledge, responsibility, and compassion are unmatched. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as much as you do, i can’t recommend Allison highly enough! Any pet in her care will be incredibly incredibly capable and loving hands.

Schedule

I’m a full-time veterinary technician, so my schedule is generally most flexible on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I am also available Friday evenings from 8:00-11:00PM for drop-in visits. If you’re looking for drop in visits or dog walks Tuesday through Thursday, please don’t hesitate to reach out! While I do work during the day on weekdays, I may still be able to accommodate visits depending on the time and location. I’m always happy to chat and see if we can find a schedule that works for both you and your pets. 🐾

I like to get a full picture of your pet’s personality and needs before a visit so I can provide the best care possible. Some things I’d love to know ahead of time: •Is your dog reactive to other dogs or people on walks? •Are they handling sensitive (e.g., paws, ears, back end)? •Do they have any medical issues or medications? •What are their favorite toys, games, or comfort items? •What’s their typical routine like (mealtimes, potty breaks, etc.)? •Is there anything that makes them anxious or upset (storms, loud noises, being alone too long)? •Do they do best with space or lots of attention? •Any quirks or habits I should know about? The more I know, the more I can make them feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. 💛
