Although I do work at a hospital, in my spare time I decided to incorporate something I’m passionate about into my everyday routine… dog walking/sitting! As an avid people and animal lover, you can count on me to safely care for your pet.

About Alysa K.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my number one priority. I always ensure that collars and leashes fit appropriately, fences and gates are closed, crates are secure and that your pup/cat is out of the way of any hazards. I can easily identify signs of heatstroke and I always ensure that your pups paws don’t touch hot pavement in the summer months. Water is also a must after walks! I am transparent and believe that it is best to follow the owners requests so I will work with you to develop a routine that fits the needs of your family and your pet. I also ask that if you are leaving a spare key, it has “do not duplicate” engraved in it. Lastly, I will always ask permission.

Information Alysa K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has an special needs, medications, or food allergies so that I can accommodate you and plan for our visit in the best way possible. Knowing your dogs personality and triggers ahead of time can help me prepare to make our introduction smooth and enjoyable.
A typical day
Dogs love to explore and smell, we will be sure to check out all of the smells as we explore new places and people on our walk. I’d even be willing to go for a jog if your pet is up for it! If weather prohibits us from going out for a walk because your dog doesn’t enjoy the rain, there will be plenty of activities we will do inside together…. Like learning new tricks and playing tug-of-war.

Pet care experience
I was raised on a farm and absolutely love animals (see my pictures)! As a nurse, I’m passionate about life and caring for others. My passion for raising and taking care of animals started young and grew immensely with age… hence why we've connected here! I’m gentle, punctual, and truly enjoy dog sitting. I’m skilled in bathing, walking, feeding, administering medications and caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats. I love all breeds and promise to welcome your pet in the same way he/she welcomes you home! Health appropriate bones, balls, and toys always make for a good time. Others would say I’m trustworthy, reliable, and dedicated. I truly believe that through service and by “paying it forward” the world is a better place! Because I have pets of my own, I understand the importance socialization and safety.
Reviews
Alysa was absolutely fantastic with our cats! She was very thorough, asked questions when needed, the litter box is clean and our kitties are happy and healthy upon our return. We are so very happy we chose her and will definitely be using her in the future!
Alysa did a great job with my two cats! They were happy and healthy when I returned and she even managed to make friends with my very anti-social cat.
Alysa was wonderful! She even took time ahead of our scheduled appointment to meet my doggies. Highly recommend and will book her in the future.
Alysa was wonderful!!! she came over beforehand to meet the dogs and they loved her! she sent us pictures and reassured us that all was fine. She was flexible and we will definitely use her again in the future!!
