Your pets are my TOP PRIORITY!

Pet care experience

**Services are only available for those living on Travis Air Force Base.** Dog walking & pet sitting is my full time job, and I take it seriously. As a military spouse, I understand how difficult it can be to find someone you trust to take care of your furred family members. I have 7 years experience as a sitter and dog walker, and 4 years experience as a trainer. I have volunteered fostering and training for animal rescue, and have worked as kennel staff for a humane society. I strive to provide the best service possible for each and every one of my clients by:  Providing an in-depth meet & greet to get to know you and your pets  Updating you after each visit with a detailed report  Double checking all gates, doors, and kennels to ensure that your home and your pets are secure at the end of each visit  Bringing training treats to work on behaviors like sitting to be leashed, coming when called, walking with a loose leash, dropping items they may pick up off the ground during a walk, willingly getting into their kennel, and any other basic training cues you’d like to strengthen  Notifying you of anything out of the ordinary as soon as I am aware of it  Providing focused and individualized care. Because this isn’t a job I “do on the side” or “just for fun”, you can be sure that I am committed to making your home and your pets my top priority.  Being open to constructive criticism. If there is something you aren’t happy with, PLEASE let me know and I’ll do everything I can to make it right. Do you have a dog that can’t go on walks for any reason? No problem! I have a stash of dog toys and food puzzles that are sure to get your pup the mental stimulation he needs, the exercise he craves, and the attention you want him to get. I am comfortable with pets of all types, including reptiles that require live or frozen feedings. All caged animals are included in the price of a 30 minute drop-in, provided that the tasks you need completed can be done in 30 minutes. I offer a 10% discount to military, police, & fire personnel, as well as first responders as a thank you for all that you do!

Alyssa did a great job for a stay in April. Very professional and was committed to doing a great job. In early June, however, when I needed to adjust my upcoming booking, she was MIA for more than a week. She did have an "Away" setting up on Rover, but Rover had no insight of when she'd return. Rover suggested I call her Rover number, since I received no responses from the messages I sent. Her Rover number, which apparently links directly to her personal cell number, had a Verizon recorded message that the number was "changed, disconnected, or no longer in service"(!?). I notified Rover folks, and they have not received a response from her through her personal email. Finally, with only three days until she was to start pet sitting(!), Rover helped me cancel the booking. Rover was great. They provided a full refund and offered to help find a new sitter. That aside, I am so dismayed...Alyssa, where are you...? What happened?

Alyssa is fabulous! She stayed in our home for two nights with our two Shelties. Alyssa is professional, knowledgeable, reliable, detail oriented and trustworthy. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs for the first time and really appreciated the photo updates she sent while we were away. She took excellent care of them and our home!

Alyssa has come over several times to let our 3 large dogs out, and recently stayed overnight with them. We will definitely be using her as our regular/only dog sitter because she is very trustworthy, knowledgeable about animals, detail oriented, and an all around lovely person!! Alyssa sent me pictures of the dogs while I was away which was the absolute best, and the house was still in order when I got home! We haven't been able to comfortably leave our pups with anyone in a long time, but with Alyssa we know that they are in great hands!!!

Really appreciated the time taken for the "meet and greet" prior to scheduling walks. Alyssa is a pleasure to deal with and my dogs took to her right away. She is very thorough and organized, on time and responsive to questions. My first dealings with Rover.com have been very successful.
