Pet care experience

Reliable Grad Student Pet Care

I grew up surrounded by dogs, including a boxer, French bulldog, and English bulldog, and I currently share my home with a cat. Over the years I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all sizes—sometimes up to three dogs or four cats at once. My experience includes puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with special needs. I’m comfortable with all aspects of daily care, from feeding and walks to playtime, grooming, and administering medication (including injections). I also have experience with crate training and leash manners, and I enjoy taking pets on long walks to keep them happy and active. My care style is calm and gentle, with a focus on building trust and making pets feel safe. As a responsible and organized grad student, I take pride in being reliable and treating every pet as if they were my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with rescues, senior animals, and animals with special needs. Whatever your pet's typical routine entails, I will make sure to stick to it! I know it can be distressing for pets to not have their parents home so my goal is to make sure they feel safe and comfortable until you come back!

House Sitting • Jun 05, 2026

Aly took great care of our girls while we were away. She kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. She was thoughtful, reliable, and clearly cared for our pets as if they were her own. Aly also kept our home spotless, and went above and beyond by helping water our plants. We came home to happy pups and a well-cared-for house. We would gladly book with Aly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.

Ally was great! Teddy can definitely be a handful at times, but she managed well by looking after him. Jack usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but with Ally, he opened up so quickly it felt like they had known each other forever. Ally is reliable and trustworthy which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, she tidied up around the house and even offered to help with more before she left. I would highly recommend Ally to any and all pet owners.
