About Alyson H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I understand that all pets have different needs and preferences. I am comfortable playing with your dog in their home, taking them on walks, or little field trips and hikes (for the more energetic pups) around Delaware if you'd like! I have a soft spot for senior cats and dogs, so I am also more than happy to take things slower and give them the extra TLC they might need.
Information Alyson H. would like to know about your pet
Before I meet your pet, please give me an idea of their personality. For example, are they going to be friendly or not with other dogs during walks? I have a lot of experience working with dogs with aggression towards other dogs and am comfortable managing this on walks as long as I am aware ahead of time. Also, let me know if your pet has any special needs ahead of time. I have become a pro over the years in tricking pups into taking the pills they usually refuse. I am also comfortable administering any topical medications required.
A typical day
Each dog/cat is different! I can adapt to both high and low-energy pets. I'd love to take high-energy dogs for lots of walks. I am a big fan of our local parks in Delaware, and would love to take your active pups to someplace like White Clay or Brandywine! For the low-energy individuals, I'd love to provide some extra TLC, lots of brushing, and puzzle-based treats like Kongs!

Pet care experience
I worked at a dog/cat kennel for over 3 years. I was fortunate enough to work with all breeds, sizes, ages, and behavioral levels. I want to give your pet the best and most comfortable experience while you're away!

Reviews
Alyson was amazing! Definitely will book her again for a drop in visit!
Alyson was an exceptional pet sitter for my two dogs. She stayed at my home for nearly a week while I was on vacation and provided outstanding care. She kept me updated with frequent photos, which gave me great peace of mind, and it was clear my dogs were happy and well cared for in my absence, as was my home! I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and will absolutely be using her services again. I highly recommend Alyson for any and all pet sitting needs!
Alyson is absolutely great! I feel so at ease when I go on trips, knowing she is looking after my two cats, Oriole and Harrison. She does more than just put out food or scoop their litter boxes; she takes the time to play with them and give them real attention. I always come home to happy and relaxed cats. I couldn't ask for a more trustworthy and caring person to look after my cats. Alyson is reliable, caring, and goes the extra mile to make sure my pets are comfortable and loved. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her!
