Pet care experience

Former veterinary professional

I worked for four years as the lead kennel staff at an animal hospital taking care of boarded pets, daycares, and assisting with medical procedures. I have experience with dogs from ages 4 weeks to 21 years, with all ranges of health issues, and can handle dogs of any size. I can administer medications orally, topically, or via injection and love hanging out with your furry best friends! I work remotely and have the flexibility to be with your pets as often as needed during the week and weekend. I employ a variety of safety techniques from my days in the hospital, and am comfortable with large animals, multiple pet homes, and aggressive/territorial/anxious pets. * Note: I am not available for 24/7 care. Your pet may be left alone for periods of up to 4-6 hours, depending on his or her comfort level and routine. Specifics can be discussed prior to booking.

Allison took great care of our 9-year-old cat while we were away for a few nights. She was timely, communicative, and showed genuine care for our fur baby. Would highly recommend and will definitely utilize her services again in the future!

Allison was great! She came through on a last minute booking and even made time to do a meet and greet before meeting our pup. She asked all the right questions and was thorough and attentive during her drop in visit and walk. She was proactive, professional, communicative and friendly. 10/10

Let me know if your dog has any allergies, sensitivities, or triggers that I can help with while watching. Additionally, let me know if your dog is not crate trained or suffers from separation anxiety so I can best prepare for his or her stay.
