Grad student with a love for pets

Pet care experience

I’m a 27 year old, compassionate former nurse (now full time student) who loves animals & will take great care of yours. I am located in Sugarhouse, attend class at Westminster 3 days a week for graduate studies, and spend the rest of my time studying at home or getting outdoors. I’d love to provide care to your beloved animals - including any and all of your pet sitting needs! I had two cats of my own.. Pepper & Snow who both passed away this year of old age. I lived with and took care of dogs for the first 18 years of my life as well, providing for all of their daily needs! If your furry friends love to exercise and be outdoors, we will get along just fine! I am willing to exercise your pets, but I’m also a big fan of snuggles and can give them plenty of love while you’re away. Thank you for considering me in the care of your furry children. 🙂 I am currently a full time graduate student, but only attend class Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I study at home often and prefer pet sitting in my apartment. Otherwise, my days are wide open for pet sitting. I have a large 2nd floor apartment with a fenced yard area in the back for playing. I’m also one block from Fairfield dog park. I am available all hours of the day when sitting and can provide frequent potty breaks. Animals are allowed on the furniture, and I can accommodate crates if needed.

Allyson was wonderful! Prompt and quick to answer since I had a last minute request. I loved her communication and updates. My dog loved her as well!

Allyson is such a great and easy communicator! My kitten was only with her for one night but she sent me lots of sweet pictures and made me feel comfortable with my cat being away. Will definitely be using Allyson in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing pet boarding!

Allyson was communicative and provided lots of photos during her stay w Nia! It was so reassuring to know that our elderly dog was getting great care in the comfort of her own home.

Allyson was so easy to work with and I could tell she really cared about taking good care of Nero. She sent lots of pics and my dog always looked happy and well-taken care of. He will definitely stay with her again. Thank you!

Information Allyson D. would like to know about your pet

I do not do well with aggressive dogs as I am a very calm and balanced individual. If your dog has a history of any aggressive behavior toward people, I prefer you look for a sitter better suited for your pet. Much appreciation. I like knowing any triggers for your dog ahead of time, potty schedule, feeding schedule, and if they chew on things so I can prep my space accordingly. If you have a very vocal dog, please let me know ahead of time. Thanks!

A typical day

Play with toys. Walks around Sugarhouse park or Fairmont park. I can walk them to the local dog park across the street if they enjoy interacting with other dogs. There is a fenced area at my apartment building where we can play outside. I can provide feeding, belly rubs, frequent potty breaks and more.
