Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional and Enthusiastic!
I’ve always loved animals and have had the opportunity to work with them in a variety of settings, including a pet store, veterinary clinic, and wildlife sanctuary. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and have experience with everything from basic grooming and dog training to administering medications and accommodating dietary needs. At home, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, aquatic pets, hamsters, and rats, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I love getting to know each pet individually and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to provide the best quality of life possible through attentive care, proper feeding and grooming, plenty of playtime, and lots of patience and affection. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or needs a little extra time to feel comfortable, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for!

Shaggy always has a great time there
Shaggy had a great time
Absolutely adore Alysa. She's kind with a great demeanor, asks a lot of care questions, comfortable with medication requirements, and followed through with specific requests. Overall made me feel extremely comfortable leaving Shasta with her. Thank you so much for accommodating us! 10/10 would recommend.
She came through for me in an emergency. She looked after my sweet dog with kindness , reliability and empathy. My mom died and was so full of empathy. She is very dependable. Communicates well. She was very flexible. Listens to what your pet needs. She gave him medicine daily as well!

Schedule
I work part time as a tutor, and most of my tutoring sessions are done from home. My current hours away from home are on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 3:30 to 6:00 pm.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
All pets are allowed to be where they are comfortable when they stay with me in my home. I provide crates for those who like to have their own personal space. My fenced in yard is small, but big enough to play fetch and have fun with other dogs. I like to follow established routines as closely as possible, with flexibility to account for schedule variations.
Pets
A typical day
The day starts off at 6 am with time outside in the yard before and after breakfast. Sometimes I will do morning/daytime walks, other times (with owner's permission) I will provide trips to the dog park for exercise. We also like to do evening walks for higher energy pups. Walks range from 20 to 40 minutes. Due to my tutoring schedule, dinnertime is later in the evening at 8:00 and evening walk times range from 9 to 10 pm.
