Dog-loving medical student

Pet care experience

I'm a second year medical student and lifelong dog owner/lover. Right now, I don't live with a dog and would love to fill the canine void in my life by helping take care of your pups! Classes are out for the summer, so I currently have very flexible hours; I'm available any time (except Tuesdays 8AM-1PM) to take your dog ( or dogs!) on long walks, play fetch, or just spend some quality time together! About me and my experience: I've grown up with dogs my entire life, and I currently have a four year old whippet/labrador mix, Belle, who has been living with my parents for the past year while I'm in school full-time. I rescued her in Chicago as a puppy and we spent three years living in an apartment and frequenting dog parks and beaches; suffice it to say, she loves her new big backyard, being able to chase squirrels OFF the leash, and having my retired parents giving her attention all day! She has quite the quirky and vibrant personality and some separation anxiety, so we attended training classes together and I fully understand the need for consistency and reliable caretakers. If your dog has any special training/walking/behavior needs, I'll certainly play my part in adhering and helping out.

Not only is Allison an excellent and reliable dog walker, but she is also a professional pet photographer ? For some reason my dog is only photogenic when she visits! I highly recommend Allison!

Allison is a very reliable and has good availability for dog walks! My dog always enjoys his walks and she takes him to his favorite park. I will continue to rebook her as I need for my dog.

Allison was great! She sent me some pictures of my pup which are always appreciated. Finnegan seemed quite comfortable with her! Will definitely rebook for it next visit!

Information Allison P. would like to know about your pet

I love and am comfortable with dogs of all breeds--no breed is too big or too small!

A typical day

I LOVE walking outdoors, rain or shine, and I'm also comfortable at dog parks and beaches if that's the kind of activities you're interested in for your dog. And I'm always down for a game of fetch or tug-of-war! If your dog is older or on the calmer side, I'm happy to spend quality time doing whatever they like! As the owner of a dog with separation anxiety, I know sometimes our dogs just need some "people time"to be happy.
