Pet care experience

Avid part of the pet community

Taking care of dogs is my passion in life. I currently own 2 dogs, an elderly hound and a young shepherd. My love for these two made me decide to have a career in working with and training working line dogs. This career path has given me a lot of experience with dogs of all types. Whether you dog is "hard to handle" or "easy going", I will be the perfect sitter for you.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I like to care for pets at their own home. Being in their own home and following the same routines will make them feel safe while you are gone and will build a sense of trust with me. Your pet's safety and happiness is my number one priority.

House Sitting • Aug 14, 2026

Alyssa did an amazing job for us. We have 1 large and 2 medium sized dogs, and they can be a handful and are terribly spoiled. She was able to make friends with them quickly, even the shy one, and in all the pictures and updates, they looked pretty darn happy and content. She left the house in just the condition it was when we left, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to anyone, and we'll definitely call her again should we need someone to stay with our pups. She's the best!

Alyssa was great! She arrived on time and took great care of Winnie. She sent us pictures and kept us up to date on how Winnie was doing. I highly recommend her to anybody needing a dog sitter.

We booked Alyssa for overnight stay with our pup. She was friendly and communicative throughout, sent photos and updates each day with Kita. Great experience. Would book again!

Alyssa is very attentive and respectful. She has a great spirit and this shows in the care she gives not only to her dog but the other family’s she serves. She is definitely a dog mom and treats others animals as if they were her own. Please give her a try - you and your pet will not be disappointed.

Alyssa cared for our Yorkie on multiple occasions and for two full weeks while we were in Hawaii. She both house sat and dog sat. Toby was 20 years old, in diapers and required special care and special diet. She was very conscientious. She is specialty trained with the handling of large dogs as well - she is loving and treats your fury loved one like her own. She has had dogs her entire life. Alyssa is a young adult that is very mature so you will have no worries about teen distractions while you are away or when entrusting your precious family member to be walked.

My entire world revolves around dogs. On days that I'm not working with my work dog or caring for someone else's pet, I am out training my own dogs. This is my passion and dream career, and nothing makes me happier.
