Active, goofy and professional!
Pet care experience
For 1 year I volunteered at an animal shelter caring for dogs and cats (including puppies and kittens) and I enjoyed every second of it. While volunteering I was allowed to administer medication to the dogs and cats, walk them, preform meet and greets, and also do light training. I also worked at a dog daycare for a year. While working there I supervised play groups between the dogs and I have a very good eye for spotting aggressive/ inappropriate play behaviors and enforcing appropriate corrections. This can be especially helpful when working with learning puppies or with reactive dogs! Since I loved doing this work, I knew I wanted to make a job out of it. After that I've had my own pets (dogs, cats, fish, shrimp, snakes, and bearded dragons), I've walked my friends dogs, and I've dog sat for friends, family, and neighbors. I am very comfortable with large dogs and small dogs. My friends and family have always asked me to help bathe and care for their dogs no matter the size.
Reviews
Alyssa was amazing, she took excellent care of our 3 dogs while we were in Italy. Will rebook with her again in future and would recommend to friends/family. Thank you Alyssa!
Alyssa did a GREAT JOB for us.. WE where out of town for 3 days and nights and She stayed at our house to sit Oscar our Yorkie.. Walked Him and did a great job with Him...Would recommend Her to anyone needing a pet sitter
Alyssa was amazing with my anxious/reactive pit bull mix. She updated me constantly and was very flexible, even when I thought my flight home would be delayed. She stayed hours extra and made sure my dog was fed and medicated. Highly recommend!
Alyssa took amazing care of our pups and our home. I felt so comfortable going on vacation and leaving my everything In her care. She provided lots of updates and my pups loved her.

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer clients to have a fenced in yard when I'm taking care of a dog just so they can go potty without a leash. But I love taking them on walks to get their energy out as well.
Information Alyssa C. would like to know about your pet
I would appreciate knowing about any behaviors you practice or routines you have with your dog. I also would like to know the special words you use to communicate with your dog. Such as go potty, do you want a treat, or sit and stay. Another important piece of information I would like is knowing your dogs likes and dislikes especially when I comes to food, play, and petting.
A typical day
I enjoy playing with the dogs in the house or in the backyard, such as playing fetch, tug of war, as well as going on long walks through the neighborhood. I also enjoy training and encouraging good behavior with treats.

Availability
I currently work part-time which allows me to have a very open and flexible schedule. I can easily request time off so I can better care for your pet or pets. I can get up early to adjust to your pet's schedule so I can make sure their routine doesnt change while you're gone.
