Availability

Currently I am working a hybrid work schedule and only have to go in to work 3 days a week. The rest of the week I am working from home and take several long walks a day. If the weather is not great (rain, too cold, ect) I have access to The Pack indoor dog park. My current dog Finnley and I love to go for multiple long walks - both off leash in the woods and on leash downtown Rockford. We have multiple potty breaks a day, have plenty of toys to play with, and Finnley loves playing with other dogs. Finnley has full access to water all the time and gets fed twice a day. If I do have to leave the house, it is only for 5 hrs at a time maximum.

Information Allison V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special behavioral issues or doesn't get along with other dogs very well. I am open to any breeds as long as they aren't aggressive with humans or other dogs. Finnley is very friendly with other dogs, so I prefer dogs that get along with other dogs. Safety for every animal is a high priority with me. Please let me know if they have any particular habits, specialty food requirements, and/or medical requirements.

A typical day

Finnley and I are very active! We take at least 2 long walks a day and have plenty of toys to keep your pup entertained. I have no issues playing ball or frisbee in my house. There are plenty of bones and yak snacks in my house to keep everyone happy. I also am a big time fan of walks on trails in the woods, visits to dog parks (only with owners permission), and car rides (only with owners permission).

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Ally and I am a confirmed animal lover! All of my friends and family say that they want to come back in their next life as one of my pets lol. My family has had many different types of animals since I was a baby and love taking care of them. I have extensive experience in caring for cats, dogs, and horses - any size or age. I also have plenty of experience giving medications (pills, shots, ect) and have no issues with special requests. My older dog Dozer (who passed away at age 13 in April 2021) had Addisons and caratracts, so I have plenty of experience giving extra care when needed. I am currently am working a hybrid work schedule, but I work from home Thursdays and Fridays. On the weekends you will most likely find me out and about with my current dog Finnley. Finnley is a 5 year old Goldendoodle who loves life, people, treats and other dogs. We love to go to dog parks, the cottage, trails in the woods, car rides, the indoor dog park, and the Muskegon Dog Beach. I use positive reinforcement only and the dogs are of course allowed on the furniture. I have had many years of experience in training my own dogs and have no issues following any rules that you have for your pet. Finnley and I live in downtown Rockford. While I don’t have a fenced in back yard, Finnley and I take at least 2 long walks a day. I also have access to the Rockford Dog Park, The Pack Indoor Dog park, Townsend Park, Grand Ravines Dog Park, trails in downtown Rockford, Grand Rogue Park, and the White Pine Trail. Finn and I are more than happy to have multiple dogs on our walks with us – the more the merrier! Finnley and I would love to take care of your fur family!

Allie is wonderful with animals and has years of experience with her own dogs and horses. She always makes sure her animals are well exercised and cared for and loves to spoil them too! Your beloved pets would be in great hands while in her care!!
