I can’t wait to meet your pet!
Pet care experience
If you’re looking for me at a party, you’ll find me wherever the dog or cat is. I've always been around dogs- and all types. My grandparents had a black lab mix when I was little, my own family got a Shih Tzu that I grew up with, and many friends and relationships I’ve had in my life came along with a furry friend. I personally do not have a dog (yet!) because I am waiting until I am settled before taking that responsibility. In the mean time, I figured it would be great to be able to care for other people’s dogs! I love all types of dogs and have watched and walked all sizes. Cats have found their way into my heart. I was never a cat person, but then I met my cat Boo, and the rest was history. I’m happy to take care of your cat, too. I offer house sitting and walking/drop ins on days I am not working my day job (a therapist!). I am someone who is responsible, fun, trustworthy, reliable, and caring, and I hope to meet you and your animal soon!
Reviews
My cats are still wondering around looking for Alyse. She did a fantastic job keeping up with 2 attention seeking cats and I couldn’t be more thankful to have her as a sitter. Would highly recommend and rebook as well!
Alyse is kind and reliable. She took good care of my two kitty’s for 3 weeks and they were happy when we returned. I would definitely recommend Alyse anytime and know we have a wonderful cat sitter.
Alyse did a great job with our very nervous dog. She accommodated some of our requests (like to limit coming and going to reduce anxiety in the pup) and kept our house in order while we were away! She sent us daily pics and updated us when things occurred (like when he threw up his meal). We will contact her again when needed!
Alyse did a good job with drop ins on my pup, I will use her again. I gave 4 stars because she did what I asked for all the visits and I liked that she gave a photo with each visit, but would have liked a sentence or two update on how my pup was with each Rover card.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your animals’ safety and security are very important to me! I strive to provide them with the same level of care they get from their lovely human.
Information Alyse R. would like to know about your pet
I am okay with any breed– I don't discriminate! I just ask for a summary about your dog, such as their personality, their typical day, favorite toys/treats, frequency of walks/bathroom breaks, and any other pertinent information.
A typical day
We will go on walks and play and cuddle- whatever your dog typically enjoys, I will do! I want your dog to feel safe, happy, and comfortable.
Services
Alyse can watch in your home
Availability
I work full time as a therapist as well as doing freelance illustration. Pet care fits into my schedule as a way to break up my day or week, to get me out of my apartment (I work from home!), and to help me connect with nature and animals. I am available for pet care on my off days, and open to drop in visits on days I work if it aligns with my schedule.
