Information Alyssa A. would like to know about your pet

It would be important to know the dogs behaviors. Anything that sets them off, they don’t like or things they really love. It is also important to know how they are with kids as I do have 2 kids.

A typical day

Enrichment is important to keep a dog stimulated and expel some energy. This can include going for walks, playing fetch, going for rides, swimming or other activities the owner recommends.

Caring and responsible animal lover

Pet care experience

I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits and a dog.

Baxter had a wonderful time at Alyssa‘s house. She took excellent care of him and he felt right at home. He was not put in a cage and he had the run of the house. Alyssa was very professional and kept Baxter happy and safe. I would definitely give her the highest recommendation and I would take Baxter there the next time I need a dog sitter.

Alyssa did a great job checking in on my dog while I was away for a conference! My dog is usually very shy around strangers and tends to hide, but she was patient and gentle with him. She even got him to go out and potty. She sent photos and updates every visit, which gave me great peace of mind. I really appreciated her care and communication, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

I was pleased with Alyssa and her care of my dogs. She was quick on responding to messages and I was able to make my trip without worrying about their care. I would use her again in the future. THANK YOU!

Would definitely leave Rex with Alyssa again. She worked with our schedule ( even as she was packing for a family trip the next day). When we arrived to pick Rex up, he was outside with Alyssa- looked very happy to be “helping” !

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
