I work full time during the week, with a hybrid office/work from home schedule, so some days I have extra flexibility. I am otherwise generally available during the evenings and most weekends. I am open to just the occasional visit/walk when you need some extra help, or more consistent visits if you are traveling.

Safety, trust & environment

I love taking walks in my neighborhood, and taking advantage of the great parks we have in the area (Frick and Schenley). I would love to have your pet join me.

Information Alyssa B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know anything and everything you want to tell me! I think it's important to know how pets react to meeting new people. For dogs, it is definitely important to understand how they might react to encountering other dogs (or any other animals) during a walk, and if there are any particular commands they respond to particularly well.

A typical day

I love to take walks around Shadyside - there are so many beautiful streets and friendly people around. I also love walking and spending time at our local parks. But I am also perfectly happy to explore somewhere new, wherever your dog is comfortable!

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals! When I was younger, I had fish; in second grade, I was finally able to convince my mom (on Mother's Day, no less!) to finally let me bring home a kitten. My parents currently have 2 cats, and I love taking over their care when I'm visiting. While we have only had cats in our home, I spent my middle school and high school years (and some college summers) petsitting my neighbors' two wonderful dogs. I walked the dogs on weeknights when they couldn't get home from work early enough. I also cared for them for a full week at a time when they went on vacation - walking, feeding, and playing with them. After all those years, they became like a second set of pets to me! Now, I have a beagle and love dog mom life.

Alyssa was very easy to work with and great with the communication. She did a preliminary visit and asked all the right questions. During her visit, she took really good care of my Tonka. I would use her again.

Alyssa was wonderful with both of our dogs! She is kind, sweet, and always has the best pics to show from the walks. We will absolutely use her dog walking services again 😀

Alyssa is our reliable go-to for caring for our critters when we go out of town! We love knowing they are well taken care of while we are away! Thanks again Alyssa!
