Pet care experience

Daycare + Walking | Gated Yard

Hello! I have my own little maltipoo rescue and love meeting new pups! I’ve had dogs since childhood and believe they should be treated with love, patience, and care. EXPERIENCE: Daycare, walking, boarding, and playtime; I’ve cared for dogs with specific feeding routines, medications, and health needs. I also make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for. If applicable, I will always clean up after myself and the pets while in your space. I’m a licensed therapist and understand the unique love animals bring into our lives. I’m located in the Sawtelle/Santa Monica area and would love to connect. Feel free to reach out! Thank you! :)

Doggy Day Care • Jul 06, 2026

Alyssa was wonderful with Archie! She took great care of him for the day, was kind enough to pick him up and drop him off, and made the whole experience so easy while we were out of town. She was friendly, communicative, and kept me updated throughout the day. Archie looked so happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every picture. It was clear he had a great time with her. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with Alyssa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

Alyssa treated my dog so well. She was so happy when I went to pick her up. Sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. Very fast to reply and to come over when I arrived. Overall a super pleasant experience.

Alyssa was a great sitter for my pup. Quick to respond, sent lots of pics and was very accommodating. Her pup Leo is adorable and got along great with mine. Her yard is a great bonus. Highly recommend!
