Pet care experience

I've always loved dogs, and they seem to love me. 🤗 I'm an experienced pet sitter, and I began my pet care jouney as a child, helping to take care of our family's dog. We had a mini schnauzer and later we got a pitt bull. 6 years ago, I adopted my own dog, Rosie, and she's my best friend. 🥰 She still struggles with anxiety due to her past, and I'm sensitive to that, making sure she is as comfortable and calm as possible. I have been pet sitting for 3 years now, and have had a variety of experiences with homes with 5 or 7 dogs, and others with 1 or 2. I’ve also administered medications.

Alyssa was great, very helpful and was easy to communicate with. A few problems with accidents from Sammie, but he gets so distracted when going outside. He needs encouraging and reminded to go and not play time until afterwards.

Was great for me and my family's weeklong vacation without our furry friends. She took care of our 5 dogs wonderfully and gave periodic updates throughout the week.

Alyssa is a great pet sitter. We have an 8 year old Staffordshire Terrier named Dakota that loves attention. Alyssa always makes sure that she is fed, walked, played with and gets all the attention she needs. Sometimes Dakota requires medicine and Alyssa is on top of that as well. She always keeps my house clean. I love the updates I get while I'm away and the pictures/text messages she sends to make me feel comfortable that someone is caring for both my house and Dakota. Alyssa is my go-to sitter and I'm grateful when she is available.
