Dog mom. Dog aunt to your pup?
Pet care experience
Golden retriever like enthusiasm. Greyhound like relaxation skills. I live in a house near Edinburgh in a very good location near parks and green areas. I work from home, so I’ll be around almost all hours of the day to care for your pet! I've been a dog owner and lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, we always had dogs as family pets and I learned from a young age the responsibilities that come with pet ownership. Some of my roles including feeding, walking, and cleaning up after the dogs, as well of course as giving them unconditional love. As an adult, I always knew I wanted to care for dogs in need, in some way. When I first moved to Seattle, I decided to foster a retired greyhound. Toby ended up being a foster fail, as I fell in love with him and couldn’t bare the thought of someone else adopting him. He also turned out to be a high-needs dog, as he had separation anxiety and some serious health problems. He required frequent walks, as well as regular vet care and medications, and luckily I had been able to work my job schedule around his needs. I also decided to foster an end-of-life dog, Sadie. She was 12 and had added another wonderful and challenging element to my life. Recently both of my dogs have passed away, and I’m looking to take care of your pup to fill the dog shaped void in my life. I am offering my services as both a dog sitter and dog walker, to those who need some extra help with their own pets, due to work, vacation or just a busy lifestyle! If you have any questions about my services or wish to know more about me, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to help however I can and look forward to meeting you and your furry friends!
Reviews
Odys has now been with Allison couple of times and he loves it there! We never have to worry about him when he’s with her and we are away. Can only recommend!
11/10 as always for Allison the boys always have a great time and are well taken care of
Really trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Allison has lots of experience with dogs and pets so we felt really comfortable that our boys were being taken good care of. Allison was also happy to provide photos and updates during the stay. Would recommend.
Allison took very good care of our greyhound and provided lovely photo updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended!

I have a fenced yard as well as access to green areas and even a beach! I allow dogs on all beds and furniture (as long as the owner permits) and have no problem following a strict routine if that’s what the owner prefers. I essentially love and treat each dog as it were my own!

Information Allison S. would like to know about your pet
I love all dogs of shapes and sizes and would welcome all into my home! I’m near multiple veterinarians with 24 hour access so I’d want pet parents to feel as safe and as comfortable as possible during their pet’s stay!
A typical day
I’m near many trails and green areas as well as a beach! I love walking dogs through quiet neighborhoods as well as getting out into nature. I also have a backyard that we can play in in the sun or shade. It’s always fun to bring dogs who like to socialize to dog friendly cafes and restaurants occasionally for a change of scenery!
