I'm a social dog-loving Dallasite
Pet care experience
I grew up with standard poodles (my family and I even raised a litter of 7 puppies!) I love dogs but had to put my sweet Auggie (older adopted terrier mix) to rest earlier this year and am not ready to commit to the full time responsibility of being a dog Mom again. My work schedule is relative flexible so I’m often able to work from home or leave the office early to spend lots of quality time with your fur baby. Big or small, I’ll provide the same loving care as if s/he were my own. I live directly across from a park which lends itself to long walks and plenty of play time!
Reviews
We truly cannot say enough good things about Allison! She is amazing with our two fur babies. She stays in contact. She sends videos and pictures. She is the absolute best. She has hosted our pups several times over the years.
Allison was so wonderful! She treated the whole process like a professional and made us feel special even though she only knew us for a weekend. I know my dog was loved under her care. We’d absolutely use Allison again!
Allison was so great with our dachshund Charlie! He is normally shy around new people, but he warmed up very quickly to Allison. She sent lots of pictures and gave Charlie lots of love while we were away. We would love for Allison to watch Charlie again!
Allison was great! She sent regular updates and photos and was super patient with my dog who can be anxious and quirky in new environments.
About Allison R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat your fur baby as if they are my own - regular walks, treats (if allowed) playtime and lots of snuggle time (I allow pups in bed and on furniture unless you specify that it’s against the rules - don’t want to spoil any specific training)
Home
Information Allison R. would like to know about your pet
Most importantly, I'd like to know how social your dog is - do they get along with other dogs or do they prefer to hang out on their own? I can't stand it when a dog owner approaches with their dog and says "oh don't worry he's harmless" because they have no idea what the temperament of the dog I'm with is like.
A typical day
Depending on where your pup lives, we'd hang out at White Rock Lake or on the Katy Trail, good neighborhood walks are always fun too! Depending on the personality of your dog we'd hang out and people watch or work out lots of energy playing fetch with the ball.

Availability
I work from home most days so I’m able to give your pup plenty of attention and take them out for walks and potty breaks every few hours.
