I currently work a hybrid job with the requirement to go in at least three days a week. The other two days of the week I am home. I am highly active and love taking walks myself so I would love to bring your dog along with me. On the days I work from home I have the freedom to pop over to your house, let your dog out of my house, or take 30 min walk with your dog in between calls. I also can take breaks to give your animal affection.

Let me know if you animal has any sensitivities like loud sounds, hates the UPS guy, etc. so I can prefer to care for them in the best way. Id also like to know their eating habits and favorite foods and toys.

We’ll take long walks (or short if you prefer) to make sure your dog gets the exercise it needs. I’ll give your pet toys to play with to keep them entertained and happy while you are away. I’m happy to bring dogs to a park to run around as well.

Pet care experience

I’ve had cats my entire life and taken care of dogs of all sizes for years. Feeding, loving, and cleaning the litter box for cats is second nature to me. I also love taking care of and playing with dogs. I’m an active person who loves to get 10k steps in a day and would love to bring your dog with me. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs with shy/anxious temperaments and administered medication. My 18 yr old cat Sierra recently passed away so I’ve decided to join Rover to continue to give animals love in her memory. While I’m not quite ready to get another pet, I have lots of animal love ready to give your pet while you’re away.

Alyssa is an amazing cat sitter, so sweet and kind to my cat Chai who is very shy. The pic’s she sent and the updates were brilliant. So happy having Alyssa for my kitty Chai.

Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of our dog and provided peace of mind while our family was on vacation. She was incredibly reliable and thoughtful when it came to our pet, and will be our go to sitter in the future!
