Loving Care When You're Not There

Pet care experience

I am a stay at home mom and dogs have been a part of my family since I was 9. I do have 4 children but they are older and love dogs. I have had lots of experience sitting both large and small dogs as well as kittens. I spend most of the day at home except for small errands here and there. Right now I have 1 border collie who loves to meet new dogs and gets along great with them. I can ensure that your dog will feel comfortable here as if it was their own home. Animals have always been a part of my life, especially dogs. I have taken care of a few kittens also. I am willing to accept some well-behaved large dogs, however, I will not be able to accept any aggressive, anxious or timid dogs. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, with 2 of my own. I'm a stay at home mom who has errands here and there. I'm available all weekdays. On Sunday I go to church from 4:30-7:30 and on Saturdays from 5:30-7:30. I have a big fenced backyard and all pets stay indoors and go out to socialize and play. I also feed pets separately to ensure there is no food aggression. If your pet is nervous and doesn't bond well at first, I won't take them out in the front yard or on walks for security reasons.

Allison was an outstanding dog sitter who truly cared for our baby, Aslan. Her responsiveness, genuine love for animals, and reliability made us feel confident in leaving Aslan in her care for 3weeks. She provided regular updates and photos and went above and beyond to ensure Aslan's comfort and happiness. We highly recommend Allison to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Information Allison S. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting your dog/kitten/rabbit, I would like to know if they have any special needs. If they are not spayed, I need to know if they are in their heat. I need to know how much they eat, how often and how many times a day. What time they wake up and go to sleep. Do they sleep with you, on their own bed or in a crate? Are they crate trained? Do they get along with dogs and strangers? Have they been sat before by a stranger and how did they do? How do they let you know they need to go to the bathroom?

A typical day

If your pet loves walks, I will gladly take them for one but if they are more energetic, they will have more fun in the backyard. Pets sleep in my room in their own bed or in my kids' rooms. They go out early to play in the backyard for an hour, while I supervise them, and then come back inside to eat breakfast and get a treat. After napping, we will go for a walk. Toward the end of the day, we go out again in the yard for an hour and come back to eat dinner and then sleep.
