Vet's daughter, love of dogs innate

Pet care experience

**NOTE: I require dog meets before accepting boarding requests as my dog is handicapped!!! She is super friendly but sometimes other dogs don’t like her wheelchair or are scared of her.** Both of my parents are veterinarians, so I like to think love of dogs is in my blood. Over the years, my mom and I have owned 5 dogs, all rescues and mostly pitbulls; we've also fostered a pregnant Staffy and her subsequent litter of 6 pups, and eventually adopted her and one puppy. I took my senior dog, Richard, to college with me at Franklin and Marshall. Now I own a home with my fiancé and our current dog Penne, who is a wheelie girl!! Aka she is paralyzed from her L2 vertebra down, and lacks bladder control, due to neglectful previous owners who were using her for breeding. I am highly experienced with special needs and elderly dogs, as well as with training puppies.

We appreciate Allyson watching our dog Bear. He came home tired from a weekend of play with her dogs, made time for a meet and greet, and dropped him at our house. We look forward to using Allyson again in the future!

Allyson was great with our dog! We have never used Rover before and Allyson was so great in keeping us informed. Our dog loved spending time with her!

Information Allyson C. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to pet sit in my own home so that I can spend time with my own dog Penne, who loves other dogs but can't travel to other homes as she does not have full bladder control due to her disability. Penne is very friendly and our home is very dog proof with a large fenced in yard. I love all dogs but especially big dogs and pitbulls :)

A typical day

I love exercise and am very capable of taking your dog on runs with me if he or she would enjoy that. I have also taught many a dog to walk on a leash, so no worries if your dog isn't the best with that skill.
