Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet is the main character here
I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life, and professionally I spent 8 months as one of Discovery Cove’s Dolphin Encounter photographers, so I’m no stranger to working with animals or earning their trust. I’ve had several pets of all kinds over the years, and spending time with pups truly brings me so much joy. Rover lets me care for lots of different furry friends, and I take that responsibility seriously. I currently work in Disney Photo Imaging, so photos are kind of my thing (expect at least one photo update while your pup is with me!) I also offer optional mini pet photo sessions (available for an additional charge), perfect for keepsakes or socials. Above all, I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own; with patience, care, and plenty of love!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
With a background at Walt Disney World and Discovery Cove, safety and professionalism come naturally to me. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and respectful of each pet’s routine, comfort, and boundaries. I always double-check doors, gates, and feeding instructions so your pet stays safe, happy, and cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Alyssa was an absolute lifesaver on our vacation. She stepped in when other arrangements of ours fell through and took such good care of our energetic not-so-little-anymore blue heeler puppy, Indiana. We were very glad to have her there giving updates, bringing our packages indoors, generally giving Indy all kinds of attention and playtime when she was there. We would be more than comfortable booking Alyssa again on our next time away.
Alyssa is a wonderful and caring person. Her kindness and attention to detail makes her the perfect pet caregiver. Go on vacation without a worry because she will be there to make sure your pets have the utmost care. She will make sure to give all the snuggles and kisses for you while you are away.
Alyssa was wonderful with my dog, Feyre. She made sure Feyre stayed on her normal routine, including walks and feeding, and gave her so much love and attention. I really appreciated how communicative she was—she kept me updated and sent photos, which gave me total peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Alyssa with my dog again.
Alyssa is always on time, excellent communicator, and very caring. Alyssa provides such fun photos and videos! She is completely trustworthy and accommodating. Definitely recommend!
Alyssa is so loving and responsible with pets! She truly loves and cares for them and follows instructions to the letter when it comes to pet care. I really recommend her as a pet sitter!!

Schedule
I do work full time, but I’m looking for extra cash and I love dogs! I can be available most evenings, sometimes mornings, and usually anytime Mondays.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsDogs over 1 year oldAlyssa can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I’d love to know your pet’s routine, medical needs, boundaries, whether they enjoy meeting new people, anything to avoid, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know, the better I can care for them.
