Stay At Home Mom, Large Fenced Yard

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alyssa Darlington, I’m originally from Toronto, Canada but I have lived in Shreveport, LA for ten years. I love caring for pets and have been a professional pet sitter for seven years. I own two rambunctious, fun loving Brittany Spaniels, named Humphrey and Georgia Mae and a sweet golden-doodle who we adopted a year and a half ago. They are 9, 8 and 4 years old and know nothing about personal space :) I have grown up with dogs my whole life so I treat all dogs as my own and have a huge heart for them! I am a stay at home mom, but if I am out walking a dog, my husband will be home. I can provide walks or runs during the day and playtime with the pups in our large fenced backyard where they have plenty of room to roam. I have three very energetic kids who love to play with the dogs and will keep your fur babies very active! I am available any day of the week unless we go out of town on vacation (one week in the summer). I believe that dogs are social beings; I fulfil their desire to interact with humans in a family environment and other dogs. My mission is to provide dogs with a safe, happy, and healthy environment.

Alyssa was great. This was our baby’s first time. Any worry I had left . She was very responsive, sent pictures and videos. Communication is key and she did just that. J. Dutton left happy and that’s all I could ask for. Oh and Alyssa accommodated me at the very last minute when I needed to switch sitters. Thank you and we will be back.

First time using Alyssa and will definitely book with her again. She sent pictures and kept me updated on how the pups were doing. I felt very comfortable upon meeting her leaving my pups with her. Our pups had a great time!!

I was extremely nervous about Daizie meeting new dogs, however, Alyssa and her family were very good to her. She did well with the other dogs much to my relief. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for someone to spoil their baby. ❤️

We also have a converted garage that is our grandparents suite with a bed, couch, tv and ac. In the fall/winter I leave the door open so when they are outside they have access to that!

A typical day

I have a big fenced in yard the dogs can play and run around in. There are also a lot of toys to play with inside and outside. I have a big fan outside on the deck for when it is hot outside when they want to play outside, I also have a kiddie pool the dogs like to play in. Myself and my kids love to play with the dogs, take them on walks and just have fun! Your dog will have its own vacation while you are away :)

This is my full-time job so I’m home majority of the time, minus dog walks and getting the kiddos from school. I love hanging out with them outside, throwing the ball.
