Pet care experience
Hello! Thanks for reading my profile! Some info about me: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have a rescue pup (Beauregard or Beau, a Boxer/Pit Bull mix). I have experience with a variety of sizes, breeds, and age ranges. Beau and I love to go for long walks/hikes and his favorite thing to do when not playing is snuggle up with his cats (or his humans) I am a firm believer in Positive Reinforcement Training and would be happy to work on/reinforce basic obedience training with your dog (sit, stay, down, come, loose leash walking, etc) during my visit. Meet and Greet: I would prefer to meet dogs/cats and their owners in your home prior to the requested service date to learn their routine and give them an opportunity to meet me with you. I understand that in a last minute scenario (if you schedule the same day as the service start date) this may not be possible. Please make sure you let me know the following: -how to access your home (key, lock box, garage code etc.) -location of dog (what room or in a crate) -location of leash, disposal for poop, and food/treats (if applicable) I look forward to meet you and your furry family! At this time, I am only able offer drop in visits at your home and walks in your neighborhood. If this changes, I will update this and my services offered.
Reviews
Allison is your go-to when you need both flexibility and patience with your pup. She will take the time to get to know you and your dog's individual needs to ensure they get the best possible care and love when staying with her.
Allison is trustworthy and dependable. She does a great job with my special needs furry "kids". I recommend her services to anyone looking for pet care.
Allison is a person who's utterly devoted to her pets and takes exceptional care of them. She is responsible, considerate, and puts all her effort in helping both humans and animals who need it. To this day she's the other emergency contact for my own pets. I would wholeheartedly recommend Allison.
About Allison R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I can hang out with your furry friends and give them love, work on any training cues you're interested in teaching, and take them for walks around your area
Information Allison R. would like to know about your pet
I don't discriminate against any breed! Before taking care of your fur baby, I would like to know their routine, any allergies they have, energy level, favorite games/toys, behavioral issues (if applicable), and how they enjoy spending their time. If they have any known dog reactivity, a high prey drive, or people/noise/things that frighten them. Any of these issues are not a deal-breaker, but I can provide better care the more I know.
A typical day
We will go for walks or if your dog prefers a more strenuous activity, I'm happy to take him or her for a hike instead with the owner's permission. I live very close to the Appalachian Trail and love to day hike.
Services
Allison can watch in your home
Availability
I'm available for daily walks/drop in visits a little later than Rover would let me select on most week days! I work in the evenings as of now so most days I am free for visits and walks from 0800-1600.
