Safety, trust & environment

I have taken care of pets in other people’s homes multiple times. I always make sure to follow the instructions left by the owner, and not overstep. As a pet owner myself, I understand wanting to keep a pet on a routine and wanting other people to follow it. I have no issues helping out pets that may need a little extra attention, as I’ve had pets with medical and emotional needs in the past.

Information Alyssa D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has anything specific that upsets them or scares them so I can be sure to avoid that. You can also tell me about favorite toys or comfort items your pet might like so I can try to make them as happy as possible while they’re missing their family.

A typical day

I love being outside with dogs when the weather is nice and playing, walking, or even just sitting and relaxing. Being inside can also be fun too with lots of petting and maybe even some brushing.

Pets

Hi! I love all types of animals!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of my pets and other people’s since I was about 12. Those include dogs, cats, bunnies, a mouse, and even a tortoise! I’ve also been a volunteer at a local animal shelter where I walked dogs and played with cats. As a kid, I used to spend my own money every Christmas to buy supplies for animal shelters near me and donate them. I was also a competitive horseback rider for six years which involves a lot of dedication to caring for and learning about the horses I rode. Animals have always been a huge part of life and they always will.
