Pets

I’ll provide endless belly rubs

Pet care experience

About me: I’ve owned dogs since I was little. I have 6 dogs shared by my family. I love all dogs, provide endless belly rubs and butt scratches. I’ve also worked in a Veterinary clinic for 5months, observing and assisting under 3 different veterinarians. Medication administration trained, but not certified. That’s right, big dogs, small dogs, red dogs and blue dogs, I love all dogs! Along with cats, I’ve worked with cats in the Veterinary clinic, I’ve owned 4 cats since I was little as well. I love all pets and would be more than happy to provide the most elite care for your 4 legged friends. Id like to thank you for your time and consideration. Feel free to contact me at any time! I work somewhat short shifts during the week: 8am-11am Monday 6am to 12pm Tuesdays 12pm-8pm Wed/Thurs 6:30-12pm and then 3pm-8pm Sundays but have time off between the shifts, so I’m able to spend a few hours back at home to let pets out or give medicine if needed. Have Fri/Sat off. My boyfriend will be present at times as well and he too has just as much experience as I. I have a small backyard area, pretty much enclosed with the exception of a 18” space per Fire Marshall regulations in case of an emergency. I have baby gates up on either side to ensure no escapes as well as monitored potty breaks. I currently work full time M-F, I am up early so I can potty them first thing in the morning. I am available for boarding & sitting on weekends only at this time. I have a fenced patio and I live near several parks within walking distance. A majority are pet friendly, on-leash required of course. I am also able to drive to dog parks if your dog is visibly safe and inclined to get along well with other dogs.

Really happy with Alysia. She was fast to communicate. Did a meet and greet to meet my dog. Came on time. Got along with with my dog who is scared of most people. Like that she has a background for working with dogs has worked in vet office. Took pictures of their walk. Will use again in future

Alysia took great care of our boys. They were happy and well cared for, as was our home. Alysia is knowledgeable and flexible. We could tell she genuinely cared about our pups and wasn’t just trying to get paid. Thanks Alysia!!

Alysia was amazing with my high energy, anxious girl for a weekend. We’ve struggled to find the right person to watch our 4 yo lab due to her anxiety but Alysia was great and I came home to a happy girl without any residual effects of being left for a weekend. I would absolutely book with Alysia again
