Pet care experience
(I primarily focus on cats) I have been watching friends’ or family member’s cats since junior high. Cats are my life, I almost wanted to become a vet, but I went the mental health therapist route. I love the therapeutic value and power of animals. I have also had dogs my entire life and learned a lot about their various health issues. I have been around dogs since even before I was born! I have had big and small dogs as pets. I’ve also worked at a vet in the boarding and kennel areas taking care of them daily.
Reviews
Alysha took superb care of Sweet Potato while I was out of town. She was very communicative and followed directions and spent time making sure S.P. was in good spirits and got lots of pets. I so appreciated having peace of mind while I was away. Would absolutely book her again!
Alysha has always treated my four legged family like royalty. She is sensitive to their moods, aware of their signals, and responsive to their feelings. If they are uncomfortable, she gives them space, she always addresses them in a soothing voice, and she's won them over every time. Both my dogs and cats love Alysha and come running when she visits. They say animals can tell a good person and my animals can tell Alysha is one of the best! We've been friends for five years, so I heartily concur! She's amazing!
Alysha is an amazing human and one of the most responsible people I know. Having a job where compassion is required, you can rest assured your pets are in good hands. There is nobody else I would want to watch my fur babies.
A prominent aspect of Alysha’s personality is her love for animals; she’s a fanatic in the best way possible. She demonstrates an enormous capacity for compassion through her work as a therapist to highly vulnerable clients. She is genuine, easy to talk to, and committed to providing excellent service. I have observed the pride Alysha takes in her work; she is committed to professionalism, while still projecting warmth.

My cat is strictly indoor. I will honor all parameters and instructions given by cat parents because I am extremely protective of my own. Meow!
Information Alysha S. would like to know about your pet
I do best with dogs that are in Junior to prime age groups, that need walking and stimulation but are not extremely hyperactive. I am open to all breeds. I also cat sit, and can answer any questions regarding that service as well.
A typical day
I enjoy playing games with curious dogs that need stimulation. I like to go on walks in parks or wooded areas where they can safely sniff around in nature.
